Remark
A full battery will provide sufficient power for several days of normal test
usage. The actual operating time depends, of course, to a large extent on
the conditions prevailing at the time.
The following figures have been obtained by way of reference:
§ Battery freshly charged
§ Contact-Discharge with 30kV
§ More than 20’000 discharges can be generated
6.3. Operation and settings
The operation of the instrument and all settings are carried out by way of
the touch-panel starting from the menu TEST. Generally, the following
applies:
§ Frames symbolize push buttons. Touching these sensitive areas
causes a reaction, usually branching into another menu.
§ Values and indications that are not in frames are for information
only. Pressing the ‘Return‘ button always takes you up one
menu level higher.
§ A virtual rotary control wheel appears in parameter setting
menus. Sensitivity and lent weight are matched to the parameter
to be adjusted. Stroking the ‘wheel‘ with the finger-tip causes it to
‘rotate‘ and changes the selected parameter. When you wish to
alter the setting for either the voltage or the pre-select counter
you can let the wheel spinning at different speeds. Activating it
energetically will cause it – just like a mechanical one – to run on
and thereby set the particular parameter higher or lower
correspondingly more quickly.
