4.6 Footwear test as series circuit (hands-free mode)
Connect the enclosed footwear electrode to the sockets showing the shoe
symbol (4, Fig. 1) at the rear of the unit.
DIP switch 6 at the rear of the unit set in the mode "ON footwear test in
series enabled". The upper limit cannot be switched over.
The footwear test can be made without activating the measuring plate,
e.g. in combination with a turnstile or a similar singularization system.
Resistance is measured between left and right shoe.
Stand on the footwear electrode with both shoes. If the shoes are conduc-
tive, an audible signal will indicate that the tester is switched on. The test
result will be displayed on one of the LEDs after a brief measurement
period.
No individual error measurements will be displayed in this operating
mode. The defective shoe can be identified by pressing the measuring
plate again. The upper limit for each shoe is set for 70 MOhm.
The tester will be switched off when stepping off the footwear electrode.
Green LED "OK" flashes: The sum of resistance of both shoes is within
the range 200 kOhm to 140 MOhm, or 0 to
140 MOhm with the lower limit switched off.
Red LED "Hi-Fail" flashes:
audible signal
The resistance of the series circuit exceeds the
upper limit 140 MOhm.
Red LED "Lo-Fail" flashes:
audible signal
The resistance of the series circuit falls below
the lower limit 200 kOhm
(
not applicable if the lower limit is switched off).
