The continuity tester is a handy adjunct to an ohmmeter. The unit
or component whose continuity is to be checked is connected
between terminals E1 and E2 (which may be probes or croc clips).
The test current then flowing through the unit/component on test
causes a potential drop across resistor R2, which is applied to the
non-inverting input of buffer IC2.
