Diode Measurement
•
Diode measurement mode shares the same configuration with 4000 V manual voltage
measurement mode.
•
If the test circuit is open or the voltage drop between the two ports of the device (diode)
under test are larger than 2 V, the LCD will show "OL".
•
The buzzer generates a 2 kHz sound whenever the digit number is less than 0.25 V.
As the cycle time of measurement is only 50 ms, the least significant digit will not
display.

Maintenance
8.1
Battery Replacement
•
Amplifier Probe
: Adjust the volume control to at least 4 or 5 on the Amplifier Probe,
hold down the push button, and place the tip of the probe near a live conductor (i. e., a
110 V power cord). If no sound is generated, replace a 9 V battery inside the Amplifier
Probe.
•
Tone Generator
: Select the "Tone" switch on the Tone Generator. Adjust the volume
control to at least 4 or 5, hold down the push button, and place the tip of the probe to
the cables attached to the Tone Generator. If no tone is generated, replace a 9V battery
for the Tone Generator.
•
Multimeter
: Replace two AAA batteries with the " " symbol appears at the upper left
hand corner of the LCD.
