Performing resistance/continuity measurements
– Six ranges: 500.00 Ω, 5.0000 kΩ, 50.000 kΩ, 500.00 kΩ, 5.000 MΩ, 50.000 MΩ,
– Measurement method: Two-wire ohms, open-circuit voltage limited to < +9 V
– Input protection: 500 V on all ranges
1 Press .
2 Connect the red and black test leads to the input terminal as shown in
Figure 1-15.
3 Probe the test points (by shunting the resistor) and read the display.
In autoranging mode, the multimeter automatically selects the appropriate
range and the measurement is displayed.
Figure 1-15 Resistance /continuity terminal connection and display
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before
measuring resistance, or testing circuit continuity, to avoid damaging the
multimeter or the device under test.
