3.2.3 Indication of Operating States
Signal Lamps at the High-Voltage Module
The signal lamps integrated into the high-voltage module indicate
two different operating states:
Green: Test instrument ready for use
Key switch is in the “I” position (ON).
Power supplies for signal and control circuits at the
high-voltage module are switched on.
Test voltage supply circuits are still switched off, and are still
secured against inadvertent activation.
Attention!
!
All safety precautions required before entering the dan-
ger zone must now have been implemented, amongst
others: set up WS1 warning signs and ZS2 auxiliary
signs in accordance with DIN 40008, part 3.
Red: Instrument ready for operation, caution: danger!
The menu for starting the voltage test has been opened, and
the START key has been activated.
The power supply circuit for the safety test probe is still
switched off, assuming the trigger has not been pulled at the
high-voltage pistol.
The test probes are secured against inadvertent contact, as-
suming the triggers at the high-voltage pistols have not been
pulled.
Attention!
!
All means of access to the danger zone must be closed
when the high-voltage module is in the “standby” mode!
The device must be sent to GMC-I Service GmbH in order to
replace lamps.
External Signal Lamps (feature F1)
The external signal lamps indicate the same operating states as
the signal lamps integrated into the high-voltage module. They
provide additional security at the test site, and must be plainly vis-
ible beyond the boundaries of the danger zone.
The external signal lamps can only be connected to the 12 V/5 W
output jack at the high-voltage module (feature B1 or B2).
Note
For reasons of safety, only Z504D signal lamps available
from GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH may be used.
