Instructions Manual

GETEST

Measurements must be carried out respecting at all times the diagrams and warnings 

outlined in this manual. Otherwise the obtained values might be erroneous.

Pouring water around the auxiliary land (spikes system) or increasing the number of 

spikes are measures that can solve the problem.

 

4�5�- WARNING AND ERROR MESSAGES

Table 6

 shows the warning and error messages that may occur during the test. 

Table 6: Warning and error messages�

Message

Cause

Solution

Error: Reading cal data

Loading default data�

Calibration data error the device may be out 

of calibration.

Contact the TAS to receive instructions, if 

possible.

Error: Invalid current value�

The entered value is not valid.

Enter a correct value.

Error: The file is not valid�

The file you want to open is not in the 

correct format.

Select a "CSV" file.

Error: Main contactor fail-

ure� This remains disabled� 

Verify security key�

Safety key in

 TEST DISABLED

 position.

Turn the key to the 

TEST ENABLED 

position.

Error: Impossible to reach 

required current� 

Do you want to continue 

extrapolating the data?

The device cannot reach the required 

current due to an undefined cause. If al-

lowed, 

Getest

 Application will extrapolate 

the values to the desired current, applying 

the highest current it is capable of being 

reached.

Connect the device to a mains sock-

et connected to an installation with less 

impedance, or to a generator with more 

power. You can also try reducing the load.

Danger: Fault in main con-

tactor�

Remains activated�

There is a risk of electroshock.

The main contactor is broken, the safety 

protection is invalidated.

Contact the TAS.

Erratic voltages higher than 

50V Continue?

There is a risk of electroshock. Erratic volt-

ages are too high.

It is possible that one phase of the mains 

is grounded.

Contact the person in charge of the 

installation you are checking.

Danger: very high loop 

resistance, possible con-

nection error� Check con-

nections and make sure 

that nobody is touching 

the injection circuit� Do you 

wish to continue?

There is a risk of electroshock.

Resistance found is too high, this may be 

due to poor connections.

Check the connections, make sure that 

no one is touching the connectors/ 

electrodes / auxiliary ground; remove rust 

from connectors / electrodes / auxiliary 

ground.

Warning: the device may 

not have enough power to 

inject the required current� 

Loop resistance is too high 

for the indicated current� Do 

you wish to continue?

There is a risk of electroshock.

Resistance is too high for the requested 

current.

The 

GETEST

 will apply the maximum 

power, but will not be able to reach the 

required value.
