 9. Before Sending for Service / Calibration cycle

If the instrument does not operate normally, please contact nearby 

Yokogawa sales office.

Before returning the instrument follow the trouble-shooting guide 

shown below.

If the instrument does not turn on;

  Check  whether  batteries  are  missing  or  they  are  installed 

incorrect polarity. 

  (For details of battery, see 7.Battery Replacement)

  Note  that  batteries  were  not  installed  in  the  instrument  at 

shipment.

If the display reads  1 . . .     in earth voltage measurement;

 A voltage exceeding 200V is being applied to the instrument.

  Halt the measurement immediately, otherwise the instrument 

may be damaged.

WARNING

•  When measuring earth voltage, do not apply voltage greater 

than 200V between measuring terminals.

If the display reads   . . .  in precise earth resistance measurement;

  Stick the auxiliary earth spikes deeper into the earth, or stick 

them at other locations; or Add moisture to the part of the earth 

where C auxiliary earth spike is stuck (connected with the red 

wire); and Short the three test leads and check if the display 

indicates a value near   0.00  . 

 (For details of measuring, see 6-2 Precise Measurement)

If the display reads   . . .

 in simplified earth resistance measurement;

  Check if the connection to a metal water pipes, a common earth 

of commercial power supply, etc., is secure; or

  Use  another  metal  water  pipe,  common  earth  of  commercial 

power supply, etc.

 (For details of measuring, see 6-3 Simplified Measurement)

Calibration cycle

  It is recommended that the tester be calibrated once every year 

for correct operation.
