4. Read LCD display to get the forward voltage drop of the diode under testing.
3.8 TRANSISTOR TESTING
1.
2.
3.
Set the function switch at hFE position.
Determine whether the transistor is NPN or PNP type and locate emitter, base,
and collector lead Insert leads of the transistor into proper holes of the transistor
testing socket on the front panel.
The meter will show the approx. hFE value at test condition of base current
10μA and Vce 3.0V.

WARNING:
Before attempting to insert transistor for testing, always be sure that test leads have
been disconnected from any measurement circuits.
