4.2.6. LoZ
function
This mode allows carrying out AC/DC voltage measurement with a low input impedance, in
order to eliminate wrong readings due to parasite voltages for capacitive couplings.
CAUTION
By plugging the instrument between the phase and earth conductor,
because of the low impedance of the instrument during measurement,
RCD protections may trip while carrying out the test. If this test is to be
carried out, first carry out a measurement of at least 5s between phase
and neutral in the presence of voltage
Do not leave the instrument connected for more than 1min
4.2.7. AC+DC
function
The instrument is capable of measuring a possible presence of overlapping alternating
components on a generic direct waveform (voltage or current). This can be useful when
measuring typical impulsive signals of non-linear loads (e.g. welding machines, ovens,
etc.).
4.2.8. Inrush current function (INRUSH)
Measurement of inrush current (see § 5.8) is intended as the recognition of an event
detected upon exceeding of a trigger threshold. If the instant value exceeds this threshold
(
fixed, equal to 1%FS clamp)
, the instrument shows on the display the maximum Peak
value (calculated in
1ms
) and the maximum RMS value calculated with a time which can
be selected among options:
16.7ms, 20ms, 50ms, 100ms (default), 150ms, 175ms
and
200ms
.
4.2.9. Disabling the Auto Power Off function
In order to preserve internal batteries, the instrument switches off automatically
approximately 15 minutes after it was last used. Press key
MODE/MXMNPK
or turn the
rotary switch from position
OFF
to switch on the instrument again. To disable the Auto
Power Off function, proceed as follows:
Switch off the instrument (
OFF
)
Press and hold key
to switch on the instrument. The symbol
“
”
disappears from
the display
Switch off and then on again the instrument to enable the function.
