RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS
X1 through X1K Ohms:
1. Insert test leads into VOM and COM jacks.
2. Set Range Switch to appropriate OHMS range.
3. Short test probes together.
4. Adjust OHMS ADJUST CONTROL until meter reads
zero ohms.
5. Connect probes to component to be measured.
6. Read ohms on OHMS scale (multiply value read by
multiplier indicated by the switch).
A fuse protects the X1 range against accidental over-
loads. If the fuse should blow, all OHMS ranges will
not operate.
DO NOT TOUCH circuitry while
making measurements.
DISCONNECT or ISOLATE the device being tested from
other circuitry.
NOTE: 1K equals 1000.
NOTE: The Polarity Reversing Switch has no effect in
the Ohms Ranges.
