Here's what you need to know. * DCV - DC Voltage (used to test live circuit) * ACV - AC Voltage (used to test live circuit) * Diode Check - black lead by the band, red on the other end should read as a short and if you swap leads it should read as an open (test with no power applied) * K Ohms - For measuring resistors/potentiometers (test with no power applied) * Cont (Continuity) - For checking wires/direct connections. Meter beeps when it measures a direct connection <~2 Ohms. (test with no power applied) Scott |

AC V alternating current...such as your house. DC V direct current...such as USB, PC power supply output, batteries, etc. AJ |
