Default Re: Roberts RT7 - problem

Sorry chaps, getting lots of exercise back and forth to the shed.

Dammit! Fuse gone in the tester. No spare.

For some inexplicable reason I have been putting two zeros after the decimal point when showing open circuit. As you can see from that picture of the meter on Page5 post 93, open circuit with probes touching nothing = 1 . - not 1. or 1 .00 which is what I have been putting. Doh.

Switching to 2000 screen reads 1
Switching to 200 reads 1 . two spaces after the 1

My error, now I need a fuse.
