exits Test Mode and returns to Normal Mode. Each time the Test or Reset Button is pressed, the
meter starts the Exit Delay Timer again. The Exit Delay time is programmed in the meter's Device
Profile.
If the Meter recognizes measurable load:
The meter watches the Test and Reset Buttons for activity, using an extended time limit consisting
of the Exit Delay time plus the programmed Block Interval Time. This insures that the meter can
complete a full block demand test without interruption.
All Test Mode data is lost when Test Mode is exited. Upon exiting Test Mode, a new (possibly
partial) demand interval and subinterval are started. The past subinterval as well as the current
subinterval are zeroed. Upon returning to Normal operating mode, a TOU meter or demand meter
with load profiling will complete the time remaining in the current partial subinterval so that
subsequent subintervals will be synchronized with the hourly boundary.
Maximum demand values for each demand integration type are not modified while in Test Mode.
The previously recorded maximums are restored when Test Mode is exited. If you choose to reset
demand data during testing operations, this action can be completed after Test Mode is exited by
pressing the Reset Button after the meter has returned to Normal Mode.
NOTE: Normal billing and historical log data accumulation is suspended during Test Mode
operation. Upon exiting Test Mode, accumulation of billing and historical log quantities:
1. Resume from the values in place when Test Mode was entered, or
2. Continue from the Test Mode Preset values (see Section 4.2.4).
