10.1 Error Reporting
10.1.1 Electrode Resistance Too High
This can happen in a 3- or 4-pole earth measurement, a resistivity measurement,
or an earth potential measurement.
This message is displayed when the measurement is triggered by a short press of
the START/STOP button and the resistances of the auxiliary electrodes are too high.
The measurement must then be started by a long press on the START/STOP but-
ton. The device then measures the values of the electrodes and compensates for
them to display the correct result.

connections or the measurement will not
proceed. The flashing of terminal H may
