The meter has the audio read out feature. The meter reads out the insulation resistance 

values and other parameters like Polarization index(PI) and Dielectric Absorption Ratio(DAR) 

with the help of powerful speaker. This feature comes in very handy where the screen of 

meter is not directly accessible.

Depending upon the mode of the meter it will announce values accordingly. In the IR, 

STEP  and  RAMP  modes  the  meter  will  read  out  the  resistance  after  the  test  has  been 

completed. In the PI mode it will read out the Polarization Index(PI) and in the DAR mode it 

will read out the Dielectric Absorption Ratio(DAR) after the test is completed.

This feature can be turned on/off by the user. So to check whether this feature is on/off 

you can look at the mute/unmute icon in the status bar as shown below:

        indicates that the audio read-out feature is ON.
        indicates that the audio read-out feature is OFF.

To turn this setting ON/OFF:

Click on the        icon on the home screen to enter the settings menu.

Then click on the        icon on the settings screen to enter the other settings window.

Then click on the mute/unmute icon to turn this setting on/off.
