4.4 Make Diode Measurements
The instrument can measure the forward voltage of general purpose
diodes.
To measure diodes, press repeatedly until Meter is set to Diode.
WARNING:
Fully discharge the capacitor before connecting it
to any of the inputs or it may damage the
instrument.
CAUTION:
Always connect the test leads to the instrument
inputs first before connecting the DUT to avoid
potential shock hazard.
Follow these steps to make a measurement.
1.
Connect the black test lead to the COM input.
2.
Connect the red test lead to the V.Ω.C input.
3.
Probe with the test leads to the DUT and take the measured reading
on display.
