Capacitance Measurement
The capacitance value is obtained by measuring the insulation resistance.
After finishing measuring (When the
Υ
key has been pressed), press the
Γ
key and the capacitance value will be exhibited on the display.

Memory
It allows holding the last performed reading on the display at the moment
when pressing the
Β
key without interrupting the tests. When this key is
pressed again, the megohmmeter updates the resistance and chronometer
values. The led on
Β
key and the letter H on the display indicate that the
function has been activated

Battery status check
Hold the
Χ
key pressed in order to check the battery status during
measurements. The analogue bar-graph will give an approximate visual
representation of the remaining charge percentage; additionally, the display
will show the message “Battery Status OK” if the charge is enough, or
“Battery Status Low” if the charge is low. In this last case, it is highly
advisable to charge the battery before using the apparatus. If battery charge
is under 20% of the total, the message Battery Low will automatically
appears on the display.
