Test mode
Test mode is typically used for verifying meter functions.
The meter is usually reading data from a test power supply while function
verification is performed.
The values shown in the test mode display screens represent different
accumulators than those shown in norm or alt mode (although they perform some
of the same basic measurements). The test mode display values are for accuracy
checking purposes; they only accumulate while the meter is in test mode.
You can create custom test mode screens and modify the existing test mode
screens.
NOTE: You cannot place revenue-locked meters into test mode.
Several things to note about test mode:
• All of the billing quantities that are recorded when the meter is in Normal
mode stop accumulating when the meter is switched to test mode – the data
is sent to special test mode registers instead.
• The values accumulated in these test registers are displayed on the test
mode displays and in ION Setup.
• The regular normal mode billing registers are unaffected while the meter is in
test mode; accumulation of this data continues as soon as you exit test mode.
• All test registers are reset to zero when you exit test mode.
Test mode default screens
Your meter has default test mode display screens.
NOTE: You can modify the test mode display screens or add custom screens
using ION Setup.
