9. The instrument displays :
Vdc = DC output voltage from module/string
Irr = irradiance measured by supplied reference cell
Tc = temperature of module. The herewith options are
available for this field:
AUTO
automatic mode
Number
MAN or AUX mode
“ - - - “
AUX mode with no connected probe
Module = type of selected module
Temp = measurement mode of module temperature
Start = measurement activation mode
The symbol “
”
fixed
at display means that a stable
RF connection is established with the remote unit
