_____________________________________________________________________________________________
4.5 PASS or FAIL Determination

4.5.3 "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).
When the preset test time has elapsed, the unit switches to the FAIL state
and immediately stops outputting a voltage if the measured resistance value
deviates from the upper or lower limit value during the test. The FAIL state
can be divided into UPPER FAIL and LOWER FAIL states.
UPPER FAIL indicates that the measured resistance has exceeded the
upperlimit value.
LOWER FAIL indicates that the measured resistance has dropped below the
lower-limit value. (When the lower-limit value is set to OFF, LOWER FAIL
is ineffective.) If the test time has not been set, PASS screening is not
performed. To the test, press the STOP key, which will forcibly terminate the
test.
Optional Functions
The FAIL state is held using the FAIL Hold function. (See Section 6.2)
If the test time is set, the test can be forcibly terminated when the
measured resistance value enters the PASS range before the preset time
has elapsed. This is convenient when testing objects that contains capacity
loads. (See Section 6.11)
