NOTE: At 1 Gigohm high limit resistance, a dirty foot
plate could result in a false pass. Be sure to keep the
foot plate clean particularly when using this setting. This
setting is not suitable for relative humidity greater than
50 %.

DIP switch 5 must be ON (default setting) for the wrist
strap test to be active. The wrist strap test will be
disabled if DIP switch 5 is set to OFF.
The LOW limit for the wrist strap test is set to 750
kilohms and cannot be modified by the user.
5. Insert the ground cord’s banana plug into the
ground jack located at the bottom of the tester.
Connect ground cord’s ring terminal to equipment
ground. This connection will remove any static
charge from the user before the test.
NOTE: Failure
to correctly ground the Dual Combination Tester
may result in damage not covered under warranty.
6. Power the Dual Combination Tester with the power
adapter.
INSTALLING THE DUAL COMBINATION TESTER
1. Mount the tester at the desired location using the
four mounting holes located in the corners of the
yellow mounting plate.
2. Set the dual foot plate below the tester.
3. Insert one end of the foot plate cord into the stereo
jack located at the bottom of the tester. Insert the
opposite end of the cord into the stereo jack located
on the underside of the dual foot plate.
4. Use the guides located on the underside of the dual
foot plate to route the cord either out the top or the
side. This will prevent the foot plate cord from being
accidentally tripped and unplugged.
