TEST Mode

The EM920 can run in NORMAL or in TEST mode. The present
operating mode is indicated on the display status bar at the
bottom of the screen.

TEST mode is intended for testing the device energy
measurement accuracy without affecting the billing energy
and demand data. All instrumentation data is still available in
TEST mode.

The front pulse LED indicators flash at a programmable rate
in TEST mode, and the billing data display shows separate
test kWh and kvarh energy readings with an extended 0.001
kWh resolution. See

Energy Pulse LED Indicators

above for

the test LED pulse rates.

You can enter TEST mode directly by an extended press on
the TEST button located under the meter cover, or via PAS.
See

The TEST Button

in Chapter 3 and

Device Options and

Mode Control

in Chapter 5 on how to put your meter in TEST

mode and to change the test LED pulse rate.

See

TEST Mode Data Display

for more information on the

TEST mode display.
