4.6. Setting Up a Test

Before going to setup the Test Parameters, make sure that the Keyboard is in the
Unlock mode, and then follow this procedure to setup the Test Parameters.

Press the Memory key and using the numeric keypad enter the Memory number you
would like to edit and then press the ENTER key.

Use the

 or

 arrow keys to progress through the test parameters menu.  The

 key

will advance forward and

 key will advance backward.  The sequential forward menu

items are Voltage, HI-Limit, LO-Limit, Ramp-UP, Dwell Unit, Dwell Time, Ramp-
DOWN, Frequency, Arc Detect, Arc Sense, and Connect.
