5.9ResistanceMeasurements
Warning:Donotdodiode,resistanceorcontinuitytestsbeforeyouhaveremovedthepower
fromcapacitorsandotherdevicesundertestduringameasurement.Injurytopersonscan
occur.

1. Setthefunctionswitchtothe position.
2.
Ensurethatthemeterissettoresistancemeasurement.Ifthe orthe indicatoris
displayed,presstheMODEbuttonrepeatedlyuntilnoneoftheseindicatorsaredisplayed.

3.
InserttheblackprobeleadintothenegativeCOMterminalandtheredprobeleadinto
thepositiveΩterminal.
4.
Touchthetipsoftheprobeacrossthecircuitorcomponentundertest.
5.
Readtheresistancevalueonthedisplay.
5.10CapacitanceMeasurements
Warning:Donotdocapacitancetestsbeforeyouhaveremovedthepowerthecapacitororotherdevices
undertestduringameasurement.Injurytopersonscanoccur.

Note:Toprotecttheinternalcomponents,ifacapacitorthatisbeingtestedhasacharge,the
meterwillfirstdischargethecapandshowdiSC.Afteracompletedischargethemeterwill
conductanormaltest.diSCmayalsobedisplayediftheincorrectinputisprovided(e.g.,
measuring
voltagewhileincapacitancemode).
1. Setthefunctionswitchtothe position.
2.
InserttheblackprobeleadintothenegativeCOMterminalandtheredprobeleadinto
thepositive terminal.
3.
Touchthetipsoftheprobeacrossthepartundertest.
4.
Readthecapacitancevalueonthedisplay.

Note:Forverylargecapacitancevalues,itmaytakeseveralsecondsforthemeasurementtosettleandthe
finalreadingtostabilize.
