Section 3: What the Option Settings Mean / Insulation Resistance
1000R+ User’s Guide / page 20
Insulation Resistance
By setting the Insulation Resistance threshold, you select the highest resistance that
the analyzer will detect during a test. For example, setting the Insulation Resistance at
50K
Ω
means the analyzer will detect connections with resistances up to 50K
Ω
. Any
connections with resistances higher than 50K
Ω
will be ignored.
Important!
The
Insulation Resistance setting must be equal to or greater than the Connection
Resistance setting. When you select a hipot voltage, the resistance is the level at
which a hipot failure will be detected.
• If you have the Connection Resistance parameter set to
CALC
or
AUTO
, the 1000R+ will bypass the Insulation Resistance setting and set
it automatically to 5 Megohms.
Error Tones
When the analyzer detects errors, it emits a series of sharp beeps. This setting allows
you to set the volume of these beeps. The available settings are
Off
,
Low
, and
High
.
Sorted Wire List When this option is
ON
, it changes the order that errors appear in a net. For example,
pin J1-01 will always come before pin J1-14 if they are connected in the same net.
When this option is
OFF
, the order that pins appear in a net is determined by the
scanning order of the analyzer.
Count All Cables
Once the analyzer is programmed, and you’ve begun testing cables, the analyzer
begins to count the cables you test. When this option is
ON
, the printout from your
tests shows the total number of cables tested, as well as the number of cables which
tested as good. When this option is
OFF
, the printout will show only the number of
cables that tested as good.
Auto Print When a printer is connected to the analyzer and this option is
ON
, the system will
print a one-line report when each cable being tested is disconnected, indicating
whether that cable tested as good, bad, or intermittent. When this option is
OFF
, the
system will not print each result automatically.
