Using The Features - Greenlee GT-65e Instruction Manual

Using the Features

• EF Press and hold to detect the electric field that surrounds current-
carrying conductors. The EF LED will blink once, and the beeper will emit
a short sound. Signal strength is indicated by tone and flashing of the EF
LED. For the GT-95e, signal strength is also displayed as a series of
dashes on the display.
– Use the tester's built-in antenna (refer to the "Identification" section
on the previous page) for tracing live circuits or locating a break in a
wire.
– For more precision, such as distinguishing between current-carrying
and ground wires, connect a test lead to the + input terminal and use
it as a probe.
• Auto-Hold This feature automatically activates when the tester is
removed after making a voltage reading. The LEDs flash the last measured
value for 10 seconds. The GT-95e LCD holds the last measured value and
displays the
about the same time, or a lower value might be displayed during Auto-
Hold.
• Overvoltage Warning The 1000 VAC/VDC LED flashes if these levels are
exceeded. The GT-95e LCD displays "OL" above 1000 V AC or DC.
• Indicator Self-Test Short the two test leads together. The Continuity LED
will light, and the beeper will sound. With the leads still shorted, press
and hold the EF button. The beeper will turn off. The 13 voltage-indicating
LEDs will illuminate for approximately 2 to 3 seconds and then turn off.
On the GT-95e, five of the LEDs will change from green to red, and all the
digits and icons in the LCD will be visible. The
flash two additional times when the battery voltage is low. At the
conclusion of the test, the Continuity LED and beeper will then turn back
on.
• Shock Hazard Warning (GT-95e only) The voltage LEDs are red if the
measured voltage is above 70 VDC/33 VAC. Below these levels, the LEDs
are green.
• Shaker (GT-95e only) If enabled, the shaker signals that an AC voltage
greater than 15 V is present between the test leads. To enable or disable
this feature, remove the leads from any voltage or continuity source.
Press and hold first the RCD button and then the EF button.
– The shaker will remain on until the buttons are released to confirm
that this feature is enabled.
– The shaker will turn on briefly to signal that this feature has been
disabled.
