I have it turned off for a while and I tried again the conductivity test and it's not beeping constantly and showing that error. Now it only shows the error and beep while I'm with the probes testing conductivity. When I stop the conductivity testings, the beep stops (as it should) and message also goes away. But it was not like this until now. I never seen this message before.
Might it have anything to do with low battery?
You should always try to a fresh battery before doing any other checks. Does the meter have a low battery indication on the screen?
Can you clarify exactly what you are measuring? I am not clear from your language what you are doing.
Which position have you turned the dial to? Which sockets have you plugged the test leads into? What mode have you selected with the SELECT button? What are you measuring and how are you conducting the measurement? When exactly does the InErr message start and stop?
If I understand your last message correctly, the problem has gone away now?
I'm sorry for my English.
There is a low battery symbol on the screen. Otherwise I wouldn't know the battery might be low.
I'm measuring conductivity/resistance on a circuit I built on a stripboard to check connections are correct and that I made no mistakes (I'm a noob, in fact this is my first attempt on a stripboard, so I already faced a couple of challenges I was not aware of).
I'm using both Ohm meter and the other one that comes when I press twice the Select button which have a small sound level symbol if you know what I mean. It's the conductivity test mode that is supposed to beep when between both meter probes is a short.
The constant "InError" message and the constant beep were happening when I was doing the conductivity test. When there was a short, the multmeter started beeping (constant beep) and showing the "InErr" message also constantly. I mean the message appeared and stayed there until I turn off the multmeter. So did the beep.
Then I turned off the meter for some seconds (or 1 minute or 2 or so) and in the meantime I started this thread. Then I tried again to do some more resistance/conductivity testing and this time, the message and the beep were only there while I had the probes on the circuit. As soon as I removed any of the probes from the circuit, message and beep stops.
Did I explained better now? Or did I made it even more complicated?
