Totalizer Sensitivity Test

1. Perform the Totalizer Test and ensure that it is operational.
2. Remove the jumper connecting the (SUM) terminal test lead to output 0's test lead.
3. Ensure that Hydra Series II is still in the totalize display mode. If not, press the O
4. Connect the output of the signal generator to the SUM and GROUND terminals.
5. Program the signal generator to output a 1.5V rms sine signal at 10 Hz.

Dedicated Alarm Output Test

The Dedicated Alarm Output Test verifies that Alarm Outputs 0 through 3 are
functioning properly. Because this test is dependent on voltage readings, the Accuracy
Verification Test for channel 0 and the Channel Integrity Test for channels 1 through 3
should be performed if voltage readings are suspect.
1. Switch OFF power to the instrument and disconnect all high voltage inputs.
2. Remove the Alarm Output eight-terminal connector module from the rear of Hydra

leads) to the GROUND and 0 through 3 terminals. Leave other ends of wires
unconnected at this time. Reinstall the connector.
