5.4. DIODE
TEST
CAUTION
Before taking diode test measurements in circuit remove power from the
circuit being tested and discharge all capacitors.
Fig. 5: Using the instrument for Diode test
1. Switch on
2. Pressing the
MODE
key until the symbol
is shown at display to meaning the diode
test
3. Insert the test leads into the jacks, the red plug into
V
Hz%
jack and black
plug into
COM
jack
4. Connect the test leads to the diode under test observing the proper polarities indicated
in Fig. 5. The threshold voltage value expressed in mV under this situation is displayed
5. If the threshold voltage value is 0V the diode P-N junction is shorted circuit
6. If the message "
O.L
" is displayed the diode terminals are reversed, the diode P-N
junction is damaged
