Press the record button to start and stop recording. When data recording is
enabled the record symbol will flash on and off repeatedly. Recording can
only be activated before testing commences. Results are stored at 15, 30, 45
and 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, at minute intervals up to 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, results are recorded at 5 minute intervals until the test
terminates. At each interval the recorded data will contain selected voltage,
test time elapsed, voltage applied, leakage current, and insulation
resistance.
Downloading results
Connect the instrument to the RS232 / USB port of a PC running Download
Manager. Refer to section ‘RS232 / USB connection’ for set up details. Start
Download Manager on your PC, select the S1-554 driver and right click the

Timer s and t buttons
The main timer can be set up to 99mins 59secs. The Ts button
increments the time, and the Tt button decrements the time in ten
seconds steps. An auto repeat facility allows the time to be set more
quickly. Setting a time of 00:00 disables the timer. With the timer disabled
a test has to be manually stopped.
To select timer Tmain, T1 or T2, hold down the Fn button whilst
repeatedly pressing the Ts or Ttbuttons. To set the selected timer,
release the Fn button, and the use the Ts or Ttbuttons.
The minimum timer setting is 15 seconds for test voltages of 1000 V or
more, and 30 seconds below this.
Note: T2 cannot exceed the time on main timer unless it is disabled
(00:00). T1 cannot exceed the time on T2.
Record button
This button is used to start and stop recording. Recording can only be
activated before testing. When data recording is enabled the ‘record’
