3.4 CONFIGURATION
As a safety measure, and to avoid repeated overloads on the inputs of the device,
we recommend performing configuration operations only when the device is
disconnected from all dangerous voltages.
3.4.1 Programming of the maximum resistance allowed for a
continuity
To program the maximum resistance allowed for a continuity
1. From the OFF position, hold the key down while turning the switch to
,
until the "full screen" display ends and a beep is emitted, to enter the
configuration mode. The display unit indicates the value below which the
buzzer is activated and the
symbol is displayed.
The value stored by default is
40Ω. The possible values lie between 1Ω
and 5
99Ω.
2. To change the threshold, press the key. The right-hand digit flashes:
each press on the key increments it. To shift to the next digit, apply a
long press (>2s) to the key.
To exit from the programming mode, turn the switch to another setting. The
detection threshold chosen is stored (emission of a double beep).
3.4.2 De-activation of automatic switching off (Auto Power OFF)
To de-activate automatic switching off:
In the OFF position, hold the key down while turning the switch to
, until the "full screen" display ends and a beep is emitted, to enter the
configuration mode. The symbol is displayed.
When the key is released, the device is in the voltmeter function in
the normal mode.
The return to Auto Power OFF takes place when the clamp is switched
back on.
3.4.3 Programming of the current threshold for the True INRUSH
measurement
To program the triggering current threshold of the True INRUSH measurement:
1. in the OFF position, hold the key down while turning the switch to
, until the "full screen" display ends and a beep is emitted, to enter the
configuration mode. The display unit indicates the percentage overshoot to
apply to the measured current to determine the measurement triggering
threshold.
