2.4. DISPLAY min sec µA µF 2.4.1. DIGITAL DISPLAY The main digital display indicates the values for insulation measurement: resistance, DAR PI, DD or capacity. The small digital display unit indicates the test voltage applied by the instrument or the voltage measured on the object tested. During the insulation measurement, it indicates the elapsed time or the test voltage. -
Page 9: Measurement Functions
3. MEASUREMENT FUNCTIONS 3.1. VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT As soon as the switch is set to an insulation measurement position, the instrument automatically measures the presence of any AC/DC voltage. This voltage is measured at all times and indicated on the small display unit. The instrument automatically determines AC or DC: the AC measurement is an RMS value If an excessively high external voltage is present on the terminals (>... - Page 10 Once the connections have been made, choose the When powered up, the instrument displays the test voltage on the rotary switch. condition of the battery, 1000V 1000V Ω 4T Ω the test voltage, then the voltage present on the object to be tested. Press the START/STOP key to start the measurement.

Page 12: Adjustment Of The Variable Test Voltage
The quality of the insulation is a function of the results found. Condition of the insulation < 1 Inadequate or even < 1.25 dangerous < 2 < 1.6 < 4 Good > 1.6 > 4 Excellent 3.4. ADJUSTMENT OF THE VARIABLE TEST VOLTAGE This function makes it possible to use test voltages other than the 4 available. -
Page 13: Error Messages
The maximum test voltage value is retained in a non-volatile memory. It will be displayed for a few seconds on selection of an affected range. For example, if the maximum voltage is 750 V, it will be applied and displayed on all settings of the switch from 1000 V up. 3.6. -
