e) Diode test
Make sure that all the circuit parts, circuits and
components as well as other objects of measure-
ment are disconnected from the voltage.
Select the measuring range
To activate the function of the acoustic continuity tester, press the
button „MODE“ (3). Pressing this button again takes you to the next
measuring function (continuity check) etc.
- The display indicates the diode
symbol.
- Check the measuring leads for
continuity by connecting both
measuring prods to one another.
After that the value must be
approx. 0 V.
- Now connect the two measuring
prods with the object to be mea-
sured (diode).
- The display shows the continuity
voltage in volt (V). If „OL“ is indi-
cated, the diode is measured in
reverse direction or the diode is
faulty (interruption).
