The meter sends low current into the circuit to measure its resistance.
  • Page 27 Testing Continuity Continuity indicates the presence of a complete path for current flow. The continuity test features a beeper that sounds when a circuit is complete. The beep allows users to quickly test continuity without having to watch the display. How to test: The resistance mode changes to the continuity mode, when is pressed.
  • Page 28 Measuring AC & DC Voltage Voltage means the difference in electrical potential between two points. The polarity of AC voltage varies over time, while the polarity of DC is constant over time. The meter displays AC voltage value as RMS (root mean square) readings.
  • Page 29 Measuring AC & DC Current Current is simply defined as a flow of electrons running through a conductor. To measure current, you must break the circuit under test, and place the meter in series with the circuit. The current measuring range of the meter is 10A max.
  • Page 30 WARNING Check the position of the test lead set in current test mode. Place the red lead at mA only when below 400mA, and place it at 10A when the value to be tested is over 400mA, or the value is unknown. WARNING Do not attempt to measure voltage when the test leads are connected to the mA or 10A port.
