During HiPot testing, the top bar is active and can display two of the three measurement types
shown—either voltage and current, or voltage and megohms as shown in this example. The
grayed-out type is inactive.
To select which measurement type to activate, simply touch either the megohms or current displays.
Depending on what is selected (megohms or current), the scale on the right side changes. The plot
line in the
Main Display Area
also changes (black for megohms and red for current).
NOTE
While touching the values for current or megohm will change the
measurements and scales presented, touching the screen in other parts
of the Main Display Area will cause the unit to stop testing, which will be
recorded as a user abort.
The voltage scale is always displayed and its plot color is blue.
In surge mode, the elements change based on the type of coil selected for testing. In each mode,
a pulse counter shows you the number of pulses applied at a specific voltage during the test. If the
voltage changes (such as during ramp up) the counter starts over.
The pulse count also appears in the test report.
