Of the new features, one of the most important is the patent pending safety switch. This trigger system provides greater jobsite safety for both the operator and nearby personnel and is very easy to use. Simply release thet rigger, and the instrument instantly turns off.

The handle must be held down the grip to operate the instrument, and the unit is shut down immediately when the handle is released.

This feature will increase jobsite safety as an instrument cannot be left energized while unattended.

After setting the voltage, the instrument remembers the setting and the range, so the instrument can be turned on and off as much as necessary without requiring further adjustments.

The instrument is controlled by an electronics package contained within the water impenetrable cover of the instrument. All control switches are push button operations, with large operational areas, easy to manipulate while wearing gloves. Controls include On, Low and High voltage ranges, LCD voltmeter display, the voltage setting switch, Loud and Louder volume controls and the wand handle release button.

Just below the LCD voltmeter display is the visual alert for holiday indications. This alert is made of a cluster of "super bright" LEDs that are easily seen in bright daylight conditions.

The voltage selection switch is located just above the LCD voltmeter display and is sealed from weather and dust by a screw cap. Using the supplied screwdriver, the dust cap is removed and voltages are set by turning the voltage selector as shown in the graphics. On the Low voltage range, select between 800 volts and 8,000 volts. On the High voltage range, select between 3,500 volts and 35,000 volts.

TheL CD voltmeter display shows voltages in kilovolts (kV).  So, a voltage setting of 800 volts would be displayed as 0.8 and a voltage selection of 35,000 volts would be shown as 35.0.

The audible alert speaker is located in the middle of the top of the instrument.  The Loud setting is recommended for normal operations, where ambient noise levels are normal.  For louder areas, where ear protection may be required, the Louder volume setting may be used.
