BeepLit
TM
Continuity
function is having improved convenience for checking wiring
connections and operation of switches. A continuous beep tone together with flashing
display backlight indicate a complete wire. Such audible and visible indications improve
continuity readabilities in noisy working environments.
Conductance is the inverse of Resistance, that is S=1/
or nS=1/G
. It virtually
extends the Resistance measurements to the order of Giga-Ohms for leakage
measurements.
CAUTION
Using resistance, continuity or nS function in a live circuit will produce false results and
may damage the instrument. In many cases the suspected component must be
disconnected from the circuit to obtain an accurate reading
