4. If the resistance exceeds the high limit trip setting but does not exceed the metering
range, the red RESET switch will illuminate and the alarm will be activated.
The display will show:
HI - LMT MX XXX . X s
XX . XA XXX m
Ω
If the resistance exceeds the high limit trip setting and exceeds the metering range, the red
RESET switch will illuminate and the alarm will sound. The display will show:
HI - LMT MX XXX . X s
XX . XA OFL m
Ω
To stop the alarm, please press the RESET switch once. The alarm will stop and the
display will retain the failure information. If the RESET switch is pressed again, the data
on the display screen will be cleared and the display will indicate the setting data from the
last test. The instrument is now ready for the next test.
5. If the test leads are left open or the resistance is so large that the test current generates
more that the maximum limit of 6VAC, then red RESET switch will illuminate and the
alarm will sound. The display will show:
V-OVLD MX XXX . X s
XX . XA >6VAC
To stop the alarm, please press the RESET switch once. The alarm will stop and the
display will retain the failure information. If the RESET switch is pressed again, the data
on the display screen will be cleared and the display will indicate the setting data from the
last test. The instrument is now ready for the next test.
6. If the DUT passed all of the tests, the LCD will indicate a pass condition and the
instrument will output a short audible beep tone to indicate the DUT has passed the tests.
The instrument is now ready to perform another test.
The display will show:
Pass MX XXX . X s
XX . XA XXX m
Ω
7. If the operator elects to abort a test in process this can be accomplished by pressing the
RESET switch at anytime. The instrument will stop the test process immediately.
The display will show:
Abort MX XXX . X s
XX . XA XXX m
Ω
Please press the TEST switch to initiate another test.
