Programming an AC Hipot Test

This test is applicable to the Sentry 10, 20 and 30 Plus instruments. With the instrument in
'stand-by' status, press [F1] = PROGRAM. If continuing the 5-step example from ¶2.4, you are
already in program mode and on the AC test mode page. Follow the
right side of this diagram to program the individual AC hipot test parameters.
