Do you have a question about the MI 3360 OmegaGT XA and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
I have set up five auto test sequences for five different types of test using the single test options available on the left side of the screen eg continuity). They all looked good on the PC and uploaded fine. When I come to use any of them, I get a message saying "Auto sequence includes unsupported single test" but I can't see what's wrong with them. Please help.
