Diode test

Laserliner 083 037 Digital Bluetooth MultiMeter XP 15

If „O.L.“ appears on the display instead of a measured value, the diode has either been tested in the reverse direction or is faulty. If 0.0 V is measured, the diode is faulty or a short-circuit has occurred.

Capacitance measurement

Laserliner 083 037 Digital Bluetooth MultiMeter XP 16

Components (7: Resistors, 8: Diodes , 9: Capacitors) can only be measured correctly in isolation. It may therefore be necessary to disconnect the components from the rest of the circuit.
To avoid incorrect results the measuring points must be free of dirt, oil, solder lacquer or similar.
The components must be off-circuit.

Continuity test

Laserliner 083 037 Digital Bluetooth MultiMeter XP 17

A measured value of < 50 ohms is recognised as continuity; this is confirmed by an audible signal.
If „O.L.“ appears on the display instead of a measured value, either the measuring range has been exceeded or the measuring circuit is not closed or has been interrupted.

The components must be off-circuit.

Contact temperature measurement
To measure contact temperature, connect the supplied temperature sensor (K-type) to the device.
Ensure correct polarity.
