Turn the Fail Stop function ON and OFF by pressing the “Fail Stop” soft key. Fail Stop
is a parameter that is stored within the test file but may also be turned ON and OFF
temporarily from the Perform Tests screen. If security is enabled you may not turn
Fail Stop ON and OFF using the “Fail Stop” soft key. Fail Stop automatically defaults
to the setting stored in the file when security is activated.
Fail Stop with Run and Leakage Current tests
Associated Research recommends performing a Hipot test with the Fail Stop ON prior
to performing a Run Test or Leakage Current test. Performing a Hipot test first can
detect if a DUT is shorted line to ground before applying line power to it.
4.4. Test Parameters
From the Setup Tests screen, press the “Add” soft key. The Test Selection screen will
now be displayed. From this screen, you may choose what type of test to perform:
Dielectric Withstand, Insulation Resistance, AC Ground Bond or DC Continuity. If you
have model 8206 or 8207, you will have Leakage Current and Run Test selections.
The Tests Selection screen will appear as follows:
4.4.1. Description of Test Parameters
Voltage: The voltage that is applied to the high voltage and return terminals during a
test.
Voltage-HI: The voltage high limit that will cause a failure if exceeded during a RUN
test.
Voltage-LO: The voltage low limit that will cause a failure if not exceeded during a
RUN test.
