EDIT SYSTEM PARAMETERS

PERFORM A GROUND CONTINUITY CHECK

Configure the instrument system parameters to your preferences. The instrument 

system parameters are global and will affect all tests that you perform regardless 

of memory location and memory step.

You can easily perform a Ground Continuity check on Class I products through the 

use of the adapter box (P/N 36544) provided with the instrument and ground return 

lead. To enable this function, you will need to set the instrument to run either an AC 

or DC Hipot test.

Note:

 If you need to preform a Ground Continuity check on your DUT, be sure to enable 

the Ground Continuity test before moving forward.
