6100-Cu Multifunction Copper Tester Operation Manual
Current Test displays the test being
measured. Here you can switch to another test
from the given list. However, this action will
terminate the ongoing measurement test.
Selected Pair allows you to select All Pairs or
a single wire pair for measurement.
Soak Voltage allows you to apply a voltage
value to the pair(s) currently under test. If your
unit has the HIVOLT (high voltage) software
option configured, the Soak Voltage parameter
values are extended up to 500 V max.
Note: Since Soak Voltage is inherited in other tests
that use the Isolation test, the HIVOLT software
option also applies to the following tests: Pair
Detective and User Auto Test.
Soak Time sets a soak period of time from 1 to
60 seconds.
Threshold Settings button opens a new page
that allows you to set isolation thresholds for
each pair.
Result displays a snapshot of the pass/fail
status, Resistance and a Soak Counter for
each selected wire pair. When running the test,
the counter counts to the selected Soak Time
by the second, for the wire pair(s) under test.
Test Status displays the current state of
measurement or an error message.
To select the parameter values:
1. Press the up/down arrow keys to highlight the
desired parameter.
2. Press the left/right arrow keys to view and
select the options.
OR
3. Press
on a value to open a list box of
options or the alphanumeric editor screen and
use the navigation keys to scroll through.
4. Press
to confirm the value.
Isolation Thresholds
The Isolation Threshold Settings page allows you to
set the Resistance threshold values for each pair. The
threshold is a programmable value you can use as an
on-screen indicator in each test when a measured
value is too high or too low.
64
Type is the threshold limit for each pair: either
Maximum or Minimum.
Enabled is a flag to use the voltage threshold:
either Yes or No.
To set threshold values:
1. Press the up/down arrow keys to highlight the
desired parameter.
2. Press the left/right arrow keys to view and
select the options.
OR
3. Press
on a value to open a list box of
options or the alphanumeric editor screen and
use the navigation keys to scroll through.
4. Press
to confirm the value.
Continuous
The Continuous function measures each pair,
displaying and updating results in real time, until you
stop the test. The last valid results then remain
displayed. Remember that the continuous application of
a higher voltage tends to dry up moisture in faults,
making it seem as if they have disappeared; but only
the moisture is gone and will likely reappear another
time.
Note: The test should be run with an open circuit at the
far end.
Note: If UFED Control option is enabled, due to its
limitation, the Continuous function will act the
same as the test in Snapshot mode and
terminate after the Soak Time period expires.
