According to the type of alarm selected, crossing of the alarm threshold will be
indicated by the appearance of      or       and a continuous beep at high or low fre-
quency.
Press the 

AL

 button again to exit the alarm function (the 

  

AL

  

 symbol disappears).

If the instrument is switched OFF, without the alarm mode being exited, this
configuration will be saved. The instrument will thus automatically switch the alarm
function ON again when the instrument is next switched ON.

Setting the alarm threshold

To programme the alarm threshold for resistance measurement it is necessary to first
press the 

ON + AL

 sequence.

The 

  AL

    symbol is displayed and the last digit of the threshold value flashes, as a

reminder that you are in threshold reset mode. This value is changed by pressing the

Ω 

Ω 

Ω 

Ω 

Ω 

button (increase) or 

A

 button (decrease). This new threshold value will be kept until

it is again changed, even after the clamp has been switched OFF.
The high alarm threshold can be between 1 and 199 

. It is programmed in at the

factory before delivery of the clamp.

OFF

 (instrument switched off) exits alarm threshold programming mode.

MEMORY

  

(

C.A 6415 exclusively

)

Zero reset of memory

Press the 

ON + MEM

 sequence for 3 seconds to display 

, this starts the clear

memoory procedure. At the 5th beep, the memory is cleared. Return to resistance
measurement is then automatic.

Recording a measurement

The recording of a measurement is only possible if the memory is switched on with the

ON + A

 sequence (

MEM 

symbol displayed).

Press 

MEM

 to record the displayed value. The number of values in memory goes up

by 1 and a long beep confirms the recording.

If the 

 symbol or the 

 symbol is continuously displayed, recording is

impossible because the clamp is not correctly closed or the battery is too low.

When the 99th value is recorded, the 

MEM

 symbol flashes to tell the user that the

memory is full. It is then no longer possible to record new values. If 

MEM

 is pressed

again there is no effect other than that a beep is emitted to indicate that recording is
prohibited. The memory should be reset to zero (after being re-read if necessary).
