Radio Shack 22-168A - Checking Continuity

is connected to the diode’s cathode, This meter
supplies enough forward voltage to light most
LEDs. However, if the LED's forward voltage is
greater than 2.0 volts, the meter incorrectly indi-
cates that the device is open.
CHECKING CONTINUITY
Follow these steps to check a circuit’s continuity.
1. Rotate the function selector to” 4.
2. Plug the black probe into your meter’s COM
terminal and the red probe into your meter’s
V/Q. terminal.
3. Remove power from the circuit.
Warning: Never perform a continuity mea-
surement on a circuit that has power con-
nected.
