Mode button
Press down on the ‘MODE’ button to cycle through and select the test
mode. Modes of test to be chosen from include an insulation resistance ‘IR’
test, a polarization index ‘PI’ test, a step voltage ‘SV’ test, and a dielectric
discharge ‘DD’ test.
The insulation resistance ‘IR’ test operates in either ‘burn’ or ‘breakdown’
mode, with an option of setting a resistance threshold ‘alarm limit’. These
modes can be cycled through and selected by holding down the Fn button
