Note: The error responses listed in Table 7 apply only to the
measurement modes, if either or both channels are in error. Error handling in the
is set in Step 7 below.
Option
HOLD Holds the last "good" reading.
LOW Forces outputs to the low set point.
HIGH Forces outputs to the high set point.
Forces outputs 10% above the high set point.
HHIGH
OTHER Forces outputs to the entered mA level.
6. Use the arrow keys to enter a specific current that will signify meter errors and press [Enter]. Then, do one of the
following:
•
For a 1-Channel meter, go to Procedure Options on the next page.
•
For a 2-Channel meter - proceed to Step 7 below.
7. Scroll to Yes or No to enable or disable 2-path error handling. Specific responses of the display and the totalizer are
listed in Table 8 below. The

this function enabled, the Model XGS868i performs error handling only if both channels are in error. If this
function is disabled, error handling occurs when either channel goes into error.

displayed as the average.
2. If both channels are in error, the last average reading is
held.
