Page 13: Button Functions
Button Functions 2.5.1 Yellow Push Button The yellow button is used to initiate the test voltage when measuring insulation resistance. In any function setting (except OFF), the megohmmeter is in the voltage mode and works as a voltmeter to detect if any voltage is present on the tested sample. -
Page 14: Scroll Cursor Button
2.5.4 Scroll Cursor Button When programming the alarm setpoints, the ▲ button is used to scroll through the possible values for each parameter, which flashes: MΩ or GΩ for insulation, kΩ or Ω for resistance, for the measurement units, 1,2, 3 or _ for the thousands digit, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 for the hundreds, tens and units, “-.- - -”... -
Page 15: Measurement Functions
Measurement Functions 2.6.1 AC/DC Voltage Measurement - Safety Check As soon as the switch is set to one of the MΩ positions, the instrument measures the voltage between its + and - terminals. The value of this voltage is displayed (0 to 600 V max). -
Page 16: Resistance
The instrument indicates if the value measured is outside its measurement range. If the measured insulation resistance is greater than 400MΩ (1039), 2 or 20 GΩ (1035), the OL symbol is displayed on the digital display instead of a value. When the measurement is greater than 1.1 GΩ, the ►... -
Page 17: Capacitance (1039)
2.6.4 Capacitance (1039) Capacitance measurement corresponds to the 4000 nF position of the switch. The measurement is shown on the display accompanied by the nF symbol. The length of the telephone line measured is indicated in km on the digital threshold display, according to the programmed capacitance per unit length. -
Page 18: Ac/Dc Current (1039)
2.6.5 AC/DC Current (1039) Current measurement corresponds to the 400 mA position of the switch. The measurement is shown on the display accompanied by the mA symbol. The fuse is checked periodically. If the current measurement is greater than 400 mA , the AC/DC OL symbol is displayed on the display. -
Page 19: Battery Auto Test
DISABLING/ENABLING THE AUTO-OFF • To disable the Auto-Off, keep the button pressed down when turning ON the instrument. The symbol is then displayed, indi- cating that the Auto-Off function has been disabled. • To enable the Auto-off function, turn the instrument OFF and then turn it back ON again. -
Page 20: Alarm Setpoints
THE DIFFERENT SOUNDS When the symbol is displayed, the buzzer is active. It gives out different sounds, depending on the operation or warning. Short buzz (65 ms at 2 kHz): • - push on a button - auto OFF • Continuous buzz (at 2 kHz): - measurement is lower than the minimum setpoint - measurement is higher than the maximum setpoint... - Page 21 At this moment, it is possible to program the threshold using the ► and ▲ buttons. During this programming, if you change the switch position, you lose what you have just done. You can quit the programming mode and record the threshold by another long press on the ALARM button.

TRIGGERING OF THE ALARM Examples in insulation measurement: • If an upper setpoint of 100 MΩ is active, the display indicates “ALARM > 100.0 MΩ”. • If the measurement exceeds this value, a continuous beep will be triggered and the whole digital threshold display will flash. •... -
Page 23: Specifications
CHAPTER 3 SPECIFICATIONS Electrical Specifications These megohmmeters display the measurement every 400 ms, which corresponds to 2.5 measurements per second for the digital display. The bargraph is refreshed every 100 ms. The digital measurement is smoothed, while the bargraph always indicates the instantaneous measurement. -

Page 29: Resistance Measurement
• To measure high insulation values (> 1 GΩ), you are advised to use the “G” guard terminal to remove the influence of superficial leak currents and a hands free carrying case. In this case, it is preferable to use alligator clips or wire grips rather than touch prods held in the hand. -
Page 30: Ac/Dc Current Measurement (1039)
AC/DC Current Measurement (1039) • Turn the megohmmeter ON by setting the switch to 400 mA. • Connect the leads from the mA and - terminals to the measurement points. • Record the current value displayed. Connecting the MN211 current probe accessory to the mA Amp terminals will extend the measurement range to 200 A AC Voltage Measurement (1039) •... -
