Resistance Range Select:
2 Triangular button Arrows: UP ­ and DOWN ¯. Select Resistance
Range in single decades in Manual and Automatic/Manual modes.

Test Volts:
Manual Selection of <10, 10 or 100 volts in Manual Mode

Record/Recall:
Turns Memory Register ON if OFF. Provides access to all data in Memory Register. Calculates and Displays Minimum, Maximum and Average of data stored in Memory Register.

Send:
Transmits data in Memory Register to RS-232 Output Port

Clear:
Erases data in Memory Register; if in HOLD mode, discards most recent Held Value

ON/OFF:
Power-up, perform functional & Battery tests. Power down if ON.

Batt. Test:
Displays GOOD on LCD if acceptable voltage or Lo if unacceptable

Reset:
Enters (saves) data into Memory Register, Clears HOLD and Display.

Test:
Begins measurement sequence.

Battery Buss Cut OFF:
ON/OFF Switch isolates batteries from instrument circuits for storage & transport

Automatic Function and Unparalleled Accuracy:
The displayed measurement is the average of eight consecutive measurements, all within ±5% of each other. The measurement is “saved” in the Memory Register by pressing RESET.

Data Log, Calculation & Computer Communication:
In RECORD mode, the PRS-801 stores up to 80 measurements, and on demand will calculate and display the Minimum, Maximum and Average measurements stored in the register. Using its RS-232 output and cable accessory, the PRS-801 will communicate with computer serial ports. The instrument is supplied with the new PROSTAT® Audit Program on a 3-1/2 inch disc, which contains spread sheet templates for recording ESD Audit Program Data in Excel® software. The PRS-801 computer output and Program disk are compatible with the Semtronics SCCN® ground monitoring system.
