6 - DIODE TEST

Never make a diode test on a live circuit
Connect the leads to the multimeter and to the terminals of the
component to be tested.
Place the selector switch on the
- in forward direction the display gives the value of the junction in
volts (resolution 1 mV)
- accuracy: ± 1% rdg ± 2 counts
- open circuit voltage: 3.2 V typical
- short circuit current: 0.6 mA
- in reverse direction the display indicates the open circuit
voltage, around 4 V.
Memorise the value, if necessary, by pressing the HOLD button.
With this function, it is possible to test, besides classic diodes,
LED's or any other semiconductor in which the junction
corresponds to a direct voltage less than 3 V.
