Making Measurements
If the beeper is enabled during diode test, the clamp meter will beep briefly for a

normal junction and sound continuously for a shorted junction.
Reverse the probes (as shown in
diode again. Assess the diode according to the following guidelines:

– A diode is considered good if the clamp meter displays
mode.
– A diode is considered shorted if the clamp meter displays approximately 0 V
in both forward and reverse-bias modes, and the clamp meter beeps
continuously.
– A diode is considered open if the clamp meter displays
and reverse-bias modes.
