Getting Started - Cirris Easy-Touch Pro Getting Started Manual

Getting Started

The Cirris Easy-Touch Pro combines superior flexibility with the simplicity of a
touchscreen user interface. The tester is controlled by the Easy-Wire software
running on an integrated PC under the Windows operating system. Test
programs and test results are stored in a database. By default, the database
is located on the unit's hard drive. However, as an option, multiple testers can
share a single, networked database using the Cirris Server Software. See the
Cirris Server Software Install Guide for more information on this option.
This guide will help the new user set up the tester and become familiar with
its operation by working through the process of creating a test program and
testing a cable.
For complete operating instructions, see the Easy-Wire Help on the tester and
the Easy-Touch User Manual.

Safety
The Easy-Touch Pro tester is capable of performing high voltage Dielectric
Withstand (DW) and Insulation Resistance (IR) testing. By design and function,
the output of high voltage (hipot) testers presents a risk of electric shock. To
mitigate this risk, Easy-Touch testers limit current, high voltage energy and
high voltage charge to levels below thresholds that define Hazardous Live or
Dangerous in international standards IEC 61010-1 and EN 50191 respectively.
However, operators can still receive a painful or startling shock when using any
high voltage test equipment. Therefore, it's necessary to protect workers from
exposure to high voltage.
2
Indicates that high voltage is produced by the tester and,
therefore, there is a risk of electric shock if safety warnings are
not followed.
Alerts users to a risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment.
Indicates that a person using an electronically-controlled
medical device should not be permitted to perform high
voltage testing.
