modes
Autotest is the fastest and easiest way to test appliances. A pre-programmed autotest
sequence runs all the tests needed for verifying the selected appliance. The complete
autotest results can be stored together with appliance name and operator notes.

In this autotest menu one of 120 pre-defined autotest procedures can be selected. Pre-
programmed sequences cover almost all
in-service
tests, regardless of appliance type,
safety class, supply cord length, fuse type, etc.
All limits and tests are in compliance with currently valid standards and regulations. In
case of any changes, new firmware will be available at your distributor or from Metrel
