In the case of abnormal noise, odor, smoke, or heat generation from this instrument, turn it off at once.
Check the followings before you ask for repair.

The display is not lit.
Auxiliary power supply is not impressed on
MA and MB terminals.
Impress auxiliary power supply.
When the auxiliary power supply
is impressed, display is not lit
soon.
This is not an error. For about a few seconds
after auxiliary power source is charged,
initialization of internal circuit is carried out.
Use it as it is.
The back light is not lit.
The back light may be set to auto off (Auto). (If
it turns on after you press an operation button,
it means the backlight is set to auto off.)
When the auto off is enabled, it automatically
turns off in 5 minutes.
Continue using it as it is or change the setting
to HoLd (it stays on). (Refer to page 22)
The display becomes black.
It may become black owing to static electricity.
It goes off after a while.
“End” display remains.
The product is still in the setting mode.

The current and voltage have
large errors.
The settings for VT / direct voltage and CT
primary current may be incorrect.
Please check the set values for VT / direct
voltage and CT primary current.
The current and voltage are
correct, but the active power,
reactive power, and power factor
have large errors.
The wiring for VT/CT or for the measurement
instrument may be incorrect.
Please check the wiring for VT/CT and for the
measurement instrument.
Measured values of PF are
including large error.
If the input current is smaller than the rating,
error becomes large.
(about 5% or below of rated current)
This is not an error, or use it as it is, or if error
is troublesome, change the CT according to
the actual current to be used.
The displayed active power is
different from the active power
that is calculated by multiplying
the displayed current, voltage,
and power factor.
If the AC of the current and voltage
deteriorate due to harmonics, it will not be the
same as the calculated value.
(For AC without harmonics, the calculated
value will match with the displayed value.)
Please continue using the instrument as it is.
The current measured by
another measurement
instrument (such as a clamp
meter) is different from the
current measured by this
instrument. (More than the
tolerance)
If another measurement instrument uses the
average method for measuring, the
measurement instrument used will have a
larger error when the AC deteriorates due to
harmonics.
(This measurement instrument uses the RMS
value method.)
Please compare the currents using a
measurement instrument that uses the RMS
value method.
On the maximum/minimum
value display screen, a present
value that is outside of the
maximum/minimum range is
displayed.
During the starting current delay time, the
maximum value is not updated, so the
present
value that is over the maximum value may be
displayed.
Please continue using the instrument as it is.

Maximum value and minimum

These are cleared if the settings for the phase
wire , VT/direct voltage, and CT primary
current are changed.
Make a note of the values before changing
the settings
The values of the setting items
that were not supposed to
change have changed.
Some setting items return to the default
values when settings for the phase wire

current are changed.
Please refer to “Initializing Related Items by
