Control Features - AEMC 1060 User Manual

2.1 Control Features

1. Safety terminals: "+", "G" and "-".
Next to the "-" terminal, there are 2 additional terminal contacts for the remote
control probe connection (3 contact connector).
2. Rotary selector switch with 9 positions:
• OFF - Instrument is off
• MΩ - 50V - Insulation measurement (2kΩ to 200GΩ)
• MΩ - 100V - Insulation measurement (4kΩ to 400GΩ)
• MΩ - 250V - Insulation measurement (10kΩ to 1TΩ)
• MΩ - 500V - Insulation measurement (20kΩ to 2TΩ)
• MΩ - 1000V -Insulation measurement (40kΩ to 4TΩ)
• 400KΩ - Resistance measurement
• - Continuity measurement
40Ω
• SET-UP - Set-up of the megohmmeter
3. START/STOP button
4. Back-lit liquid crystal display
5. 6 buttons (1050) or 8 buttons (1060), each with a first and second function.
The second functions are highlighted in yellow below each button:
• 2nd - Selects the second function on each button
• R-DAR-PI - Lets you choose the type of measurement to be performed.
Instantaneous Resistance (R), Dielectric Absorption (DAR), or Polariza-
tion Index (PI).
• R(t) - Show/hide the interval values of insulation resistance, test voltage
and time-stamping, following a time-controlled test.
• V/TIME - When measuring insulation, pressing this button displays the
time elapsed since the beginning of the measurement, then the exact
voltage generated. When performing resistance or capacitance measure-
ment, this button has no effect. In MR (memory recall), it displays the date
and time at which the measurement was stored, the exact test voltage
and the OBJ : TEST number.
• - Activates or deactivates the "time-controlled" test mode
• - Turns the display backlight ON or OFF
• ALARM - Activates or deactivates the alarms programmed in SET-UP
• - Selects a parameter to be modified
• SMOOTH - Stops/Starts smoothing of displayed values during insulation
testing
• - Increases the flashing parameter being displayed. To move
about the list of interval insulation measurements, in the R(t) function.
