d) Acoustic continuity test
Proceed as follows to perform this measurement:
Plug the test leads into the measuring device as described in section c above (“Resistance •
measurement”).
Set the range selector switch (5) to “Ω • ”.
Press the blue button to switch to the acoustic continuity test range. “ ” appears. The measured value is •
shown on the main display (12). Continuity is detected for measured values of < 50 Ω; a beep sounds.
The beep function can be deactivated in the setup menu.
e) Diode test
Proceed as follows to perform this measurement:
Plug the test leads into the measuring device as described in section c •
above (“Resistance measurement”).
Set the range selector switch (5) to “Ω • ”.
Press the blue button twice to switch to the diode test range. “ • ”
appears on the display.
Check the continuity of the test leads by touching the probe tips together. •
This should produce a value of approx. 0.
Now connect the probe tips to the measurement object (diode). In the •
forward bias direction, the voltage is shown on the main display (12).
f) Capacitance measurement
Never exceed the maximum allowable input values. Discharge each capacitor before
connecting it to the measuring device. If capacitors are short-circuited, high-energy
discharges can result. Do not touch circuits or parts of circuits if there could be voltages
higher than 25 VACrms or 35 VDC in them. Never perform measurements on capacitors
that are installed in circuits or circuit components.
Proceed as follows to measure the capacity of capacitors:
Connect the black test lead to the COM jack and the red test lead to the •
VΩ jack so that they are lying flat on the measuring device.
Set the range selector switch (5) to “• ”.
Now connect the probe tips to the measurement object (capacitor). Ensure •
correct polarity (“+” and “-”) of unipolar (poled) capacitors.
The measured value is shown on the main display (12). The active •
measuring range is shown on the left subdisplay.
Note!
Please note that the multimeter needs approx. 2-3 seconds to stabilize the display.
