Which parameter is not measured in Ohms mode according to the information?

• A. Frequency
• B. Continuity
• C. Resistance
• D. Capacitance

Answer: (A)

Ohms mode is built to test resistance by applying a small current and measuring the voltage drop, which lets the meter calculate how much a component resists current. It can also be used for continuity checks, where a near-zero resistance will trigger an audible beep. Because this mode is concerned with static resistance values, it doesn’t analyze how often a waveform repeats over time—that’s what frequency measures. To gauge frequency, you need a Hz or frequency function that tracks the timing of a signal, not the steady resistance of a component. Capacitance, on the other hand, is measured with a capacitance or LCR function that tests how a component stores charge, which is a different test than Ohms mode uses. So the parameter not measured in Ohms mode is frequency.
