General device parameters can be
configured and saved with the selector
switch in the Setup position.

Settings x / – = function activated / deactivated
Illumination Background illumination for the LCD. One of three
different conditions can be selected with the up and
down scroll keys: x: continuously on, –: off
numbers 1 through 9: duration in minutes after which
illumination is automatically deactivated.
Test time Duration of a single test (0 255 s)
Reference voltage: Voltage to which leakage current makes reference
(as a rule nominal line voltage)
Earth fault: During the short-circuit test, testing is also performed
to determine whether or not a connection exists
between L/N and PE (short-circuit to exposed con-
ductive part). We assume that a short-circuit to an
exposed conductive part exists in the event of leak-
age current greater than 15 mA from L/N to PE. This
value should be increased for some DUTs (in particu-
lar high-current consumers), because greater leak-
age currents are present.
Mains wait Line voltage is first applied to the test socket.
However, testing does not begin until after the
duration selected in seconds under “Mains pause”
has elapsed.
Automode x: for fully automatic test sequences the messeges
are mainly suppressed

Single-fault
If the single-fault condition has been activated, the test
is interrupted as a failure as soon as an error occurs.
Auto Class PSI Test results (passed or failed) for the various selector
switch positions are automatically assigned to the 8
statistics channels.
inc. Service Error Measurement results are compensated by taking
service error into consideration (measuring error).
IT Network Testing in IT systems can be performed by suppress-
ing tests for U
PE-N
. The U
PE-N
test determines
whether or not voltage is present at PE.
(Leakage current measurement results may other-
wise be distorted.)
Acst Sig, Seq
Acoustic signal is generated for: Incorrect connection of the
DUT, error in the electrical supply system, next test step.
Acst Sig, Meas Acoustic signal is generated for: Measured value
fluctuations, test current polarity reversal
Auto meas. point Prerequisite: Feature KD01*. An acoustic signal indi-
cates whether or not the probe is connected to the
protective conductor. The test sequence is run auto-
matically.
Rapid signal frequency: probe connected to PE
Slow signal frequency: next measuring point

Reports Reports which have been saved to memory can be
selected from a list with an ID number and displayed
(see chapter 18 on page 59).
Select template a report template can be selected for print-out from
of 5 different templates.
