5.3. Perform Tests Metering
Each test performed by the Hypot III contains a unique set of parameters and therefore requires
specialized metering for each test. The following table describes what meters will be displayed
for each of the different test types.
Test Type Current Voltage Time Resistance
AC Withstand X X X -
DC Withstand X X X -
IR - X X X
5.4. Performing a Test
1. From the Main Menu, select the memory and step you wish to perform then press the Exit
soft key to return you to the Perform Test screen.
2. Attach the appropriate load or DUT to the instrument (refer to section 5.1 for instrument
connections).
3. Press the TEST button.
4. The instrument will now perform the test or connected sequence of tests. If the Test is
started from any other step than 01, when you push Reset or Test buttons, it will always
return to the originally selected step.
5.4.1. Single Step
Single step is a function that allows you to run one step at a time from a sequence of connected
steps. To access the Single step function, refer to section 4.1 Setup System. This function is
used to temporarily override the automatic connection feature. When the Single Step function
is ON the instrument will pause after each step is completed. To continue the test sequence,
press the Test button to execute the next connected step. Each time the Test button is pressed
the next connected step will execute. If you press the Reset button before completing all
connected steps, it will return you to the original starting step. If a step fails and you wish to
continue to the next step do not press Reset.
5.4.2. Manual Voltage Adjustment
When HYPOT III is performing a test, “+” and “-” symbols will appear next to the two bottom
soft keys. These soft keys may be used to adjust the output voltage while performing a test.
Use these soft keys to
adjust the output voltage
while performing a test.
