QUICK START
These abbreviated parameters stand for the following:
SET: This is the parameter settings review screen.
W - SET: This is the parameter settings review screen for Dielectric Withstand test
mode.
M1: Indicates the memory location of the current settings.
M1_: Indicates that an Insulation Resistance test will execute after the Dielectric
Withstand test is completed successfully. (2945)
1.0 S: The dwell timer is set to a test duration of 1 second.
1.24KVAC: The test voltage is set to 1,240 volts AC.
10.00 mA: The high leakage current trip point is set to 10 milliamps.
If you wish to not use any one of these parameters you must change your parameters.
Please refer to the Operation Instructions section in this manual for further details.
e). If the instrument defaults are acceptable then be sure to connect the appropriate test
leads to the device under test (DUT) or test fixture. Be sure to connect this safety ground to
a suitable known good ground before energizing this instrument and then connect the return
lead first (black) to the test fixture or item followed by the high voltage output lead (red).
f). Please check your connections to be sure they are making good contact
and that the test station or area is clear of debris and other personnel. DO
NOT TOUCH THE DEVICE UNDER TEST ONCE THE TEST HAS BEEN STARTED.
To initiate the test press the GREEN test button on the front panel. This is a momentary
button and does not need to be held in the pressed position during the test. The instrument
will then cycle ON and begin the automated test sequence using the defaults. If a failure
occurs, you will HEAR an audible alarm go off. To stop the alarm you must depress the
RED button marked RESET. This will silence the alarm and reset the instrument to begin
another test. This RESET button may also be used as a safety button to quickly ABORT a
test and cut off the HIGH VOLTAGE.
When HIGH VOLTAGE is present, a RED flashing indicator located above
the HV receptacle will remain flashing until the HIGH VOLTAGE is OFF.
If the device under test PASSED the test then no audible alarm will sound.
You will hear a brief BEEP to let you know the item was successfully tested
and it PASSED. In the case of a FAIL condition, the instrument will
provide a memory of the test condition results on the LCD display that will remain until the
next test is initiated. Depressing the reset button will reset the instrument alarm while
keeping the last test results on the display. Depressing the reset button a second time will
clear the display.
