ARC
If the ARC function is enable, the sign “*” means that there
is ARC during test.

CHANNEL
Hi: 00
Lo: 00
Set the Scanner Box to output and return function
through the setting of Hi and Lo. If the setting is
Hi=01 and Lo=02, that means the high voltage is
output from CH1 and return from CH2. If Hi and Lo
are set to 00, that means no signal is sent to Scanner
Box.
*
When the measured load becomes capacitive, the test time must be
extended.
*
Ramp Time
Ramp Time setting provides a fast and safe way to detect short circuit
or faulty wiring of your Device Under Test.
GPT/GPI-700A monitors the voltage level during the first stage of
Ramp Time to find out short condition. If the voltage still remains
less than 50V after 0.1s, GPT/GPI-700A cuts off the output and
displays the message “Short”. Therefore the short current will be shut
off before it grows beyond Imax, the current limit setting.
When checking GPT/GPI-700A current accuracy, if the DUT has less
than 2Mohm input impedance, turn off the Ramp Time setting.
GPT/GPI-700A may shut down the voltage taking the low impedance
as a sign of short circuit.
