Line Survey
Line survey allows the user to perform an amperage
draw and display those values on the main screen.
1. From Main Menu screen, navigate to 4. Test and
press OK.
You will be taken to the Test Menu.
2. Navigate to 4. Line Surv and press OK.
3. Press OK when you are asked Activate Line
Survey?
You will observe the VL and VG values on the
display.
Note:
VL indicates voltage on line and normally ranges
between 34 - 37 V. VG indicates voltage to ground
and should be slightly negative. I
1
and I
2
indicate
currents in each of the lines in the two-wire path and
should be nearly identical. If these measurements
deviate much from each other this could indicate that
one of the two wires has a ground leakage. There may
be slight variations between values indicated on the
Line Surv screen and those that appear on the Test
Menu.
Viewing the Log Data
The Log Data shows you a complete list of the
controller’s activity. The memory holds a 1500 line
log. Adding a new line after you reach the maximum
erases the first line in the log.
1. From the Main Menu, move the indicating
arrow to 5. Log Data and select OK.
Note: The display shows five lines at a time (a page).
The page number is on the top of the page.
2. Use the up and down arrows to scroll from page
to page.
3. Select OK or select minus (-) to return to the
Main Menu.
