Branch leakage is measured automatically during verification as its last step.
For separate branch leakage measuring, select “LEAKAGE” in “MAIN menu” and then “BRANCH”.
Type in the branch number for which you want to measure the leakage.
The measured values will appear on the screen, along with the branch number.
The third line is the expected value (calculated based on number of detonators times current
consumption 0.1 mA).
The fourth line displays the measured values in different directions / polarities.
When the values of expected and measured match, there is no excessive leakage.
When measured values are higher than expected, there is excessive leakage in the network, which must be
identified and remedied before proceeding.
When measured values are lower than expected ones, it means there are some missing detonators. Running
a new verification of the branch is advisable to identify the issue.
