Connect the probes together to show the residue resistance reading and then press the
ZERO
button momentarily. The LCD will display a zero reading with the annuciator
Δ
turns on. The residue resistance reading is then saved temporarily as offset value for the
that follows until a further function change or power off.

measurements of Insulation Resistance function through the activation of the
TEST
button on the meter or on the Remote Probe. The

is inhibited when the meter sounds 3-beeps and displays the detected voltage
value plus
warning against energized circuit of more than 30V is being connected,
before the
is active. Measurements shall only be carried out on parts of an
installation or equipment that are de-energized.
Connecting to energized circuits when the

may damage the instrument. Always check with voltage functions and remove power from
the circuits before carrying out the

Setup
as illustrated below.
Select an intended test voltage of 50V, 100V, 250V, 500V or 1000V. Turn the Rotary
Knob directly to select the intended voltage instead.
The secondary display shows the selected voltage for 1 second right after the selection,
and then displays the actual detected voltage readings. The voltage annunciator by the
secondary display remains indicating the voltage selected.
