In general, this function serves as standard -meter with a low testing current. The
measurement is performed continuously without polarity reversal. The function can also be
applied for testing continuity of inductive components.

Continuous resistance measurement procedure
 Select continuity function using the function selector keys.
 Set sub-function to CONTINUITY using UP / DOWN keys.
 Enable and set the limit (optional).
 Connect test cable to the instrument.
 Compensate test leads resistance if necessary, (see section 5.4.3 Compensation of test
leads resistance).
 Disconnect from mains supply and discharge the object to be tested.
 Connect test leads to the tested object (see Figure 5.14).
 Press the TEST key to begin performing a continuous measurement.
 Press the TEST key to stop measurement.
