4．3 Continuity testing

1．Press the test button once. Then, the instrument switches on.

2．Select the continuity test by rotating the function dial.

3．Connect the test leads to the circuit whose resistance is required（see Fig

３）HAVING FIRST MADE SURE THAT THE CIRCUIT IS NOT LIVE.

Note that the live circuit warning lamp will illuminate if the circuit is live

but

check first anyway!

4．Press the test button and read the circuit resistance from the display.

5．Note that if the circuit resistance is greater than 20 Ω the instrument will

autorange to the 200 Ω range.

6．Subtract the test lead resistance（measured in 4.2 above）from the

display reading.

7．The result will be the resistance of the circuit under test.

Note：If the reading is greater than 200Ω the over range symbol "OL" will

remain displayed.

The results of measurements can be adversely affected by impedances

of additional operating circuits connected in parallel or by transient

currents.
