The Autek measures Z, and, if you press the C or L button,
it will solve the appropriate reactance equation for you.
It does not know whether you have the leads connected to a
resistor, capacitor or inductor. It only measures Z, and
does the algebra for you just as a calculator would. You
select the correct reactance formula by manually pushing
the C or L button. If you have a pure resistance connected,
and push the C or L button, it will indicate C or L values
with reactance equal to the connected resistor.

Autek will sell you a manual for $3.
