3.5 PASS or FAIL Determination
______________________________________________________________________________________________
3.5.3 "FAIL" State
WARNING
Even when a test has been terminated, there may still be voltage in the
output-voltage terminal. Before touching the output-voltage terminal,
H.V. TEST LEAD, or tested object, confirm the following items.
(1) The analog voltmeter reads 0 kV.
(2) The
DANGER
lamp is OFF.
(3) The
READY
lamp is lit (it is off in the Double Action mode).
If the measured voltage deviates from the upper or lower value during the
test, the unit switches to the FAIL state and immediately stops outputting a
voltage.
The FAIL state can be divided into UPPER FAIL and LOWER FAIL states.
UPPER FAIL indicates that the measured current has exceeded the
upperlimit value.
LOWER FAIL indicates that the measured current has dropped below the
lower-limit value.
(When the lower-limit value is set to OFF, LOWER FAIL is ineffective.)
With a comparative voltage value set, if the output voltage deviates from the
comparative-voltage range, the unit switches to the FAIL state and
UPPER
,
LOWER
,and
FAIL
light up.
Optional Functions
The FAIL state is held using the FAIL Hold function. (See Section 6.2)
You can select whether you want to check the output-voltage when the
test starts or ends. (When starting a test with default settings) (See Section
6.9)
