Measurement threshold
The megohmmeter function can operate either with one or two measurement threshold(s) between
50k
up to 200G
(2T
with option
20
).
A measurement is PASS after comparison between the displayed value and the thresholds.
When looking for a value only higher than a limit, the LOW THRESHOLD is used to set the limit and
the HIGH THRESHOLD is not used by setting a value equal to the maximum resistance ( basically
200G
).
When looking for an insulation resistance higher than a limit but not too much high ( which can
means that the specimen is not correctly connected), then the LOW THRESHOLD is set the
minimum insulation value expected and the HIGH THRESHOLD is set to the maximum insulation
value expected.

Timer
The measurement voltage can stay permanently ( timer value set to 0 sec.) or during a time
between 1 and 999 sec. adjustable by 1 sec. step.
Rise and fall times are adjustable in time ( second ) or in voltage increase ( dv/dt) from
0.1
to
0.9 sec.
and from 1 to
999 sec.
or in
V/s
from
1V/s
to
500V/s.
