Programming a Multi-Step Test

Paragraphs 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8 illustrate the programming of a 5-step test (GC, AC, DC, IR
& PA). To program a multiple step test, power-up the Sentry Plus Series instrument so the
'Stand By' display is shown (Figure 2-2).
parameters for the first test (GC). After specifying LOW resistance limit, press [F3] = NEXT and
[F1] = NEW to enter test parameters for the second test (AC). At this time, do NOT press [F4] =
EXIT because this will exit you from programming mode. After specifying FALL time for the
second test press [F3] = NEXT to continue entering test parameters for the third test (DC).
Continue this process for up to 10 steps. When finished entering desired number of test steps,
press [F4] = EXIT to exit programming mode and return to Stand By status.
In Stand By status, to view the test steps just programmed press [F4] = MORE. Figure 2-4
illustrates the Stand By display and resultant test steps display if the programming example in
paragraphs 2.4-2.8 was followed.
