RMO60TD Error Messages

Error Messages

Any operational error is indicated by a red LED and accompanied by an alarm.
Furthermore, the display indicates an error status message.

To stop the alarm buzzer, remove the status message on the display, and return to the

Current

TapC

menu, press

STOP

8.1 Error Message "Open connection"

The Error message "Open connection" is displayed if:

- or

– current cable, or both disconnected either on the side of device, or the side of test object.

8.2 Error Message "Connection CH1-2", "Connection CH1"

The Error message "Connection CH1-2" is displayed if both, CH1 and CH2 are not connected in the

Current

mode. This message is displayed if or

– voltage sense cable or both are disconnected

either on the device side, or the side of the test object.

The Error message "Connection CH1" is displayed only if CH1 is not connected in the

TapC

mode. This

message is displayed if or

– voltage sense cable or both are disconnected either on the device

side, or the side of the test object.

These messages are displayed only at the beginning of a test.
