Continuous Test Mode
To start a continuous non-live
test hold down the test
button for at least 2 seconds. You will hear a long beep
indicating the tester is in the continuous mode.
To start a continuous live
test (load/leakage and touch
current) hold down the test button until you hear two
beeps followed by a third beep.
The tester connects the test supply, makes the first test
and displays the first result. Then the tester continues
measuring and displaying results without disconnecting
the test supply. The maximum running time is 8 minutes.
After which the test terminates.
To stop a continuous test run, press the test button again.
The tester disconnects the test supply and holds the last
test result on the display.
Notes
1.) Fuse/L-N Pre-Test is performed as part of live tests
(Touch Current and Load/Leakage Current Test).
The pre-test verifies the fuse and lead continuity by
applying a low voltage signal across the appliances
phase and neutral pins.
Very low power appliances, or appliances with
electronically controlled on/off switches or with an
inductance may fail this test. In this case the symbol
FAIL X will appear.
To enable you to test these appliances you can skip
the Fuse/L-N Loop Pre-test. To perform the test on
appliances that fail the Fuse/L-N Loop Pre-test do the
following:
Release the appropriate function key, press and hold
it until your hear the second indication beep, but
release it before the third long beep.
To start a continuous test release the appropriate
function key, press and hold it until your hear a third
long beep.
2.) During a continuous test an active measurement is
indicated by blinking measurement units (i.e. Ω, MΩ,
mA).
3.) The IEC-Lead test cannot be run in the continuous
test mode.
Aborting a Test
Pressing
STOP
immediately aborts whatever test is in
progress, makes the tester safe and then shows the IDLE
screen. Test results will not be displayed.
