Checking the Current Threshold
Simply push the actuator of the switch inwards. One red LED
will show the current ESD event threshold. Any event equal
to or exceeding this level will produce a count and a beep,
and the LED bar graph will show it in red. An event below
this level will still be shown on the bar graph in green, but no
count or sound will be produced.
Setting the Threshold
To set a new threshold, do not press the switch. Rather,
move its actuator up or down. Once the switch begins to
move, one red LED appears on the bar graph display. As the
switch moves up and down, this red LED moves accordingly
and its position indicates the new threshold level.
Saving the Threshold Level
After the new threshold is set, release the switch actuator
and then press it inwards. The new current threshold is now
saved. The next time you power up your ESD Pro ESD
Event Indicator, this level will be
automatically set.
ESD Pro ESD Event Indicator Features
Refer to the following pages of this User’s Guide for
a detailed explanation of each control, indicator and
connection.
Controls and Indicators
• Power Switch:
Turns power on and off
• Sound Switch:
Turns the sound on and off
• CDM Filter Switch:
Turns EMI-rejection mode on and
off.
• Alarm Threshold:
Adjusts alarm threshold up and
down. Displays current alarm threshold. Resets the
Event Counter.
• Event Counter:
Counts ESD events above the set
threshold.
• ESD Event:
Bar Graph Shows relative ESD event
strength
• Filter Indicator:
Shows that ESD Pro ESD Event
Indicator is in filter mode (rejection of EMI most Events).
• Low Battery:
Shows that the battery needs to be
replaced.
Power
ESD Pro ESD Event Indicator uses a 9V alkaline battery. Do
not use any other type of battery. If you are not using your
ESD Pro ESD Event Indicator for an extended period of time,
remove the battery from the unit in order to prevent damage
caused by battery leakage.
Installing the Battery
Remove the battery door at the back of ESD Pro ESD Event
Indicator and attach the 9V battery to the battery clips.
Observe the polarity of the battery. Re-install the battery
door.
Low-Battery Indicator
When battery voltage gets low, the low battery indicator on
the display appears.
Turning ESD Pro ESD Event Indicator On and Off
Move the actuator of the power slide switch to the right. The
ESD event counter should display a number of captured
events, usually “0” at this point. The events counter is reset
when the power is turned off. To turn the power off, move the
actuator of power slide switch to the left. The ESD Pro ESD
Event Indicator has no automatic shut-off. Don’t forget to turn
it off when not in active use.
Antenna
In order for the ESD Pro ESD Event Indicator to detect most
ESD events, its antenna needs to be properly installed.
Screw the antenna using only your fingers—no tools since
overtightening the connection may lead to damage to the
instrument.
Sound
The ESD Pro ESD Event Indicator can produce audible
alarm when an event is deleted. In order to enable this
function, move the actuator of sound slide switch to the right.
