3. PUTTING INTO OPERATION

3.1. Connecting to mains outlet

Use grounded mains outlet only to supply the instrument!
If mains outlet, mains cable, instrument's case or accessories are damaged, do
not connect the REVEXplus to mains outlet!
The REVEXplus can be powered only from 230 V / 50 ÷ 60 Hz grounded mains, which is
protected with a fuse or circuit breaker with a maximum rating of 16 A.
The instrument is automatically switched on after plugging in to the mains outlet.
Disconnect any equipment under test while connecting/disconnecting the REVEXplus to/from
the mains outlet!
The REVEXplus automatically tests protective PE (ground) pin of mains outlet:
1) If PE connection is inadequate, then the (PROTECT) indicator lights up after the
REVEXplus is plugged in to mains outlet.
2) If dangerous contact voltage arises on PE, then the (PROTECT) indicator lights
up when operator's finger touches the key
If operator presses the
message „Prot" appears on the display.
If test result of ground pin of mains outlet is unsatisfactory, the wrong outlet
must be repaired before you plug in the REVEXplus to mentioned outlet again!
