2.6 Diode Check
2.6 Diode Check
Never apply voltage to the test leads. Doing so may
damage the instrument and result in personal injury.
To avoid electrical accidents, remove power from
the circuit before measuring.
1. Set the function switch.
2. Connect the test leads to the test te
minals.
3. Connect the test leads to the obje
being tested.
4. Read the value displayed in th
main display.
With a normal diode, the sequential orde
voltage (0.3 to 0.8 V) is displayed.
When the display value less than 0.0500 V
buzzer sounds.
When the display value drops to the rang
of 0.3 to 0.8 V, a single buzzer sounds to i
dicate that a diode was detected.
When the display value drops to the rang
of 0.3 to 0.8 V, a single buzzer sounds to i
dicate that a diode was detected.
