Navigate to the
“Settings/Transmitter” View
and make sure that “Electrode Test”
is set to “No”
•
Create a new
Task
and select the spread “CableTest” and the protocol
“CableContinuityTest”
•
Start the measuring procedure. If the cable is Ok it should be possible to take all
measurements of the protocol. If there is any problem transmitting current there is
a problem with the cable.
•
Repeat the procedure for all electrode cables.
•
After measuring is completed the result can be exported as text-file for inspection
and as documentation.

Cable Isolation Test
High voltages will be present on the electrode take-outs during
this test. Make sure nobody and nothing touches the electrode
cable(s) during the cable isolation test.
A cable isolation test can be carried out in the following way:
Figure 103.Two cables connected for cable isolation test
•
Electrode cables to be tested shall be connected to the “Electrode 1-32” or the
“Electrode 33-64” connector
•
One or two electrode cables can be tested at the same time. If two cables are to be
tested then one cable shall be connected to the “1-32” connector and the other
cable to the “33-64” connector
•
If only one cable is to be tested then using the “1-32” connector will produce the
test result at the top of the electrode list (see below)
Note!
Only one end of the cables to be tested shall be
connected to the instrument. The other end must be
unconnected.
•
Make sure that nothing else is connected to the cable and that the electrode take-
outs do not touch each other or anything else.
•
Navigate to the
“Settings/Transmitter” View
and make sure that “Electrode Test”
is set to “Focus One”
