If a noisy environment causes an unstable resistance measurement,
use the Average statistic to average the measurements. Refer to
page 3–37 for more information.
You can use the TekScope instrument as a continuity checker. With
the setup below, it beeps when the measured resistance is 50 or
less (typical).

You can also use the TekScope instrument as a semiconductor-junc-
tion checker. Use the setup below to measure the voltage drop across
the junction. The open-circuit voltage is limited to about 4 V to
prevent damage to reverse-biased junctions.
