Contact Check
6.3 ContactCheck
Enabling the contact check function lets you check the connection state between the HIGH and
LOW terminals.
If the measurement cables become disconnected from the measurement target, the instrument will
detect a contact error and display NoCntct. If the instrument displays NoCntct, check the contact
state at the ends of the measurement cables and check for breaks in the cables.

Laminated Lithium-ion Batteries” (p. Appx.2)
• Even if the contact check function is enabled, the instrument will display OvrRng without
registering a contact error if its internal amplier is in the over-range state, even if the
measurement cable is unconnected.
See “Measurement error detection order” (p. 47) and “Appx. 1 Block Diagram” (p. Appx.1).
