(6) Press the TEST button or remote control switch to start a continuous
measurement.
Note: Sometimes the insulation resistance value takes long time until
becomes stable because the string capacitance is big.
It is possible to relatively compare the insulation resistance value of each
string taking the reading after 1 minute of testing, so without waiting for
long time until the value is stable.
The LCD shows “>2099MΩ” when the measured result exceeds
the display range (over-range).

measurement.
