d) Diode Test
Make sure that all circuit parts, circuits and components and other objects of
measurement are disconnected from the voltage.
Select the measuring range.
- The display shows the diode symbol.
- Check the measuring lines for continuity by connecting
the two measuring prods. The value must be approxi-
mately 0 V.
- Connect the two measuring prods with the object to be
measured (diode).
- The display shows the continuity voltage in V. If "OL"
appears, the diode is measured in reverse direction or
the diode is faulty (interruption).
e) Continuity Test
Make sure that all circuit parts, circuits and components and other objects of
measurement are disconnected from the voltage.
Select the measuring range
To activate the function of the acoustic continuity tester, push the button "MODE" (3). Pressing
this button again takes you back to the diode test, etc.The display shows the icon "Continuity
test".
- A value of approx. < 150 Ohm is recognised as continuity; a beep sounds.
- Once as "OL." (for overflow) appears on the display, you have exceeded the measuring range
or the measuring circuit is interrupted.
