⇒ Portable devices located in isolated power systems should be tested on an earth-
referenced power system. Either remove the DUT to an area with an earth-referenced
power system, or use an extension cord to bring earth-referenced power to the DUT.
⇒ Inspect the product, if the instrument appears damaged or appears to operate in a
manner not specified in the manual, DO NOT CONTINUE USE. Return the product for
service.
⇒ Avoid spilling liquids on the analyzer; fluid seepage into internal components creates
corrosion and a potential shock hazard. Do not operate the instrument if internal
components are exposed to fluid.
⇒ Do not open this product. There are no user replaceable parts.
Caution
The ESA601 should be calibrated annually. Only qualified
technical personnel should perform troubleshooting and
service procedures on the ESA601.
Do not expose the system to temperature extremes. Ambient
operating temperatures should remain between 10 to 40 °C.
System performance may be adversely affected if temperatures
fluctuate above or below this range.
Clean only with a damp, lint-free cloth, using a mild detergent,
and wipe down gently.
Before each use, inspect the test-lead ends for possible wear,
cracks or breaks.
Take leakage-current measurements only after earth resistance
is measured and found to be compliant with the applied safety
limit.
If the DUT fails the Protective-Earth-Resistance test, the
operator must discontinue testing and label the DUT defective.*
If any single test fails, the test must be discontinued
immediately and the DUT labeled defective.*
*The Ansur ESA601 Plug-In software’s default settings comply with the
above indication to Halt on test failure. Unchecking this setting within the

natural resting position is OFF. A one-amp supply is
turned ON when the switch is depressed to either the
OFFSET / ZERO 0 or MEASURE Ω position, and is turned
OFF when the switch is released. Meter readings are
saved on the display for printing (if desired) upon
release of the switch. A null offset is generated when
OFFSET / ZERO 0 is depressed and the meter reads <
0.150 ohms; OL displays if a null offset was not
generated. The null value is stored until another null
is done.
14 APPLIED-PARTS-SELECTION KNOB A rotary switch with eleven usable positions, which

OR ECG-LEADS-SELECTION KNOB enables the selection of any individual – or all ten –
applied parts (or ECG Leads) connectors.
15 SIGNAL CONNECTIONS Three safety-style banana jacks, which provide

signal connections: RED – signal input connection
for Dual-Lead-Voltage, Dual-Lead-Leakage,
Protective-Earth-Resistance (or Ground-Wire-
Resistance) tests, and Leakage Currents; GREEN –
direct connection to Equipment Outlet Earth; and
BLACK – signal input connection for Dual-Lead-
Voltage and Dual-Lead-Leakage tests.
16 POWER-STATUS INDICATORS Two LEDs next to the POWER SWITCH. The lower LED
illuminates with a green light (POWER) when the tester
is switched on, while the upper LED illuminates with
a RED light (POWER FAULT) if the inlet polarity is
reversed or there is a fatal error at start-up.

Powering Up the ESA601
For the location of the FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB, the POWER-STATUS INDICATORS, and
the POWER SWITCH, refered to Figure 1-1 in Chapter 1 of this manual. Specifically locate
items 10, 17, and 18, and the accompanying descriptions of switches and indicators on
the unit’s right-side and top panels.
With the controls identified, perform the following steps to power up the ESA601.
1. Turn the FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB to the OFF position.
2. Power up the system by toggling the POWER SWITCH to the ON position. After
three seconds the unit powers up, and a green light appears in the POWER LED to
indicate the tester is switched on.
3. When the unit is powered up, the ESA601 will check for proper polarity and
range of the AC-input voltage. During this check, the display indicates firmware
X.XX (e.g. 1.00). If all goes well during power up, the display will show the
word OFF.
4. If the FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB is not set to OFF when the unit is powered up,
the unit immediately moves (with audible clicking) to the mode indicated by the
current FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB setting, and the display indicates a reading
related to that selected function (usually a meter reading).
5. If a fault is found at startup, a RED light appears in the POWER FAULT LED, and
the ESA601 display indicates an error code. (For explanations of startup-error
codes, see the section called “Error Codes” in Chapter 7 of this manual.

Selecting Language Options 3
Selecting Language Options
Five language options support the eight available factory-set versions of the ESA601 that
are unique combinations of types of DUT outlet (test receptacle), detachable line cord,
and overlay language:
• English with IEC nomenclature (“E”)
• English with AAMI nomenclature (“E-US,” default)
• French (“F”)
• Italian (“I”)
• German (“D”)
When the unit is initially received, the factory-set, default-language option should match
the instrument’s overlay language. However, if this is not the case, or if for any reason
the current default language is not the one desired, perform the following steps to change
the default:
1. Hold down the OHMS-FUNCTION SWITCH in the MEASURE Ω position while
powering up the ESA601.
2. When the display indicates SEL, release the switch.
3. To cycle through optional language selections, repeatedly press and release the
OHMS-FUNCTION SWITCH in the MEASURE Ω position.
4. When the code for the desired language option (i.e., E, F, I, or D) displays, wait
for two seconds; the language selection indicated on the display is saved
automatically.
5. The new default language remains in effect until steps #1 through #4 are
repeated.
Note
Choosing a language option affects only the report printouts and the
responses to the remote port. It does not affect the display.
Selecting the Printer Output

The printer used should support RTS/CTS or XON/XOFF protocols. Printer operation
requires a straight-through serial printer cable.
For a sample ESA601-test printout, refer to Appendix B in this manual.
Note
For procedures on how to change the current default language for
printouts, see the section in this chapter called “Selecting Language
Options.”
Printing Electrical Safety Test Results

If you want your printout to have a header, press the PRINT SWITCH with the FUNCTION-
SELECTION KNOB set to the PRINT HEADER position.
To print most electrical safety test results of a function test (usually a meter reading),
press the PRINT SWITCH in the upward position with the FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB set
to the desired function position. The ESA601 provides the meter reading, as well as the
current status of related front-panel switches.

Connecting the Device Under Test
While referring to Figure 4-1, follow the steps below to connect the ESA601 to a device
under test (DUT).
Whenever connecting or disconnecting a DUT to the ESA601, the

FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB should be set to the OFF position.
1. Connect the DUT’s applied parts to the universal ECG jacks on the back panel of the
ESA601. (For an illustration of the back panel view of the ESA601, see Figure 2 and
3 in this manual in the section in Chapter 1 called “Unit Characteristics.”) AHA and
IEC color-coded dots label these jacks as an aid to connecting the corresponding U.S.
and international ECG leads.
2. Connect the power cord from the DUT to the version-specific test receptacle on the
ESA601.

Operators Manual
Testing Device Types

For step-by-step instructions on making electrical safety tests with the ESA601, refer to
“Performing Electrical-Safety Tests” in chapter 5 of this manual.
Permanently Wired Devices

Permanently wired devices can be tested only in an ON or OFF state. (This contrasts with
portable units, which can plug directly into the front-panel receptacle of the ESA601, and
for which receptacle conditions can be varied using front-panel switching on the
ESA601.)
If a power outlet is available that has a common ground with the DUT, or if an adapter
cord is available with a short ground wire, tests can be performed for enclosure leakage,
earth resistance, patient leakage, and isolation. If neither a power outlet with a common
ground, nor an adapter cord, is available, tests can be performed for enclosure leakage,
patient leakage (using dual-lead leakage), and isolation.
Portable Devices Located in Isolated Power Systems
Portable devices located in isolated power systems should be

tested on an earth-referenced power system. Either remove the
DUT to an area with an earth-referenced power system, or use an
extension cord to bring earth-referenced power to the DUT.
.
Three-Phase Portable Devices

1. Plug the DUT into an adapter that has an interrupted ground but still provides power.
2. Plug the ESA601 into a conventional outlet. The outlet should have the same ground
potential.
3. Test the device for enclosure leakage and patient leakage.

Local Control
Mode Control 5
Mode Control
The operation of the ESA601 can be controlled through two separate modes: Local and
Remote. The power-up default mode of the ESA601 is Local Mode where functions are
selected by manually positioning the FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB. (For the location of
the FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB, refer to “Unit Characteristics” in Chapter 1 of this
manual. Specifically see item 10 in Figure 1-1.) In Remote Mode, the ESA601 can be
controlled through its RS-232 port with commands from a PC.
To change modes from Local to Remote, use a terminal-emulation program (set to 9600
baud, 8 bit, no parity, 1 start, 1 stop) to send the remote command REMOTE (with no
parameters) to the RS-232 serial port. The system responds with the message “REMOTE
MODE,” followed by the messages “WAIT” and “OK.”
Note
When the mode is changed from Local to Remote, the system initially sets
the “active” function to OFF. This action turns OFF all power to the
Equipment Outlet and to applied parts, but leaves power to the ESA601ON.
To change modes from Remote to Local, send the remote command LOCAL (with no
parameters)to the RS-232 serial port. The system responds with the message “LOCAL
MODE.”
The remainder of this chapter describes the operation of the ESA601 using the local
mode. Remote mode operation is explained in Chapter 6 of this manual.
Function Selection
Table 5-1 describes the ESA601 electrical-safety tests that are selected by positioning the
FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB, a sixteen-position rotary switch. (For the location of the
FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB, refer to “Unit Characteristics” in Chapter 1 of this manual.
Specifically see item 10 in Figure 1-1.) Some switch positions will have two names
listed. The first name refers to the overlay with IEC nomenclature, and the second name
refers to the overlay with AAMI nomenclature.
Table 5-1. Function Selection Switch Positions
Function Switch Position Function Description
OFF No function selected. Turns off all power to the

equipment outlet and to applied parts, but does
NOT turn off power to the ESA601.
PRINT HEADER When this function is selected and the PRINT

SWITCH is depressed in the upward position, a
fixed test header in ASCII code is transmitted to
an external printer through the RS-232
interface. Turns off all power to the equipment

When the EARTH RES Ω (GROUND WIRE RES Ω) function is selected initially, and the
OHMS-FUNCTION SWITCH is set to the default (OFF) position, the ESA601 display
indicates PE (Protective Earth), and the null offset value is equal to the last null offset
value.
Action
1. Position the FUNCTION-SELECTION KNOB to EARTH RES Ω (GROUND WIRE RES Ω).
2. Connect the DUT power cord to the test receptacle on the ESA601
3. Connect the banana plug end of the red test lead into the RED signal jack and the
probe end into to the GREEN signal jack that is labeled PE TEST POINT.*
4. Depress and hold down the OHMS-FUNCTION SWITCH in the OFFSET/ZERO 0 position.
5. After the meter settles, release the switch. If the operation is successful, a null offset
is saved, and the ESA601 display indicates a string of zeroes. (If the meter will not
zero, the ESA601 display indicates OL when the switch is released, meaning that the
lead resistance is too high.)
6. Disconnect the lead’s probe end from the PE-TEST POINT, and connect to the DUT
enclosure at desired points. Connect the DUT power cord to the test receptacle on the
ESA601.
7. Depress and hold down the OHMS-FUNCTION SWITCH in the MEASURE Ω position
until a stable reading is obtained (approximately three seconds).
8. Release the switch to hold and display the reading.
9. Press the PRINT SWITCH to print the reading.
10. Repeat steps 6 through 9 as many times as necessary, using the RED test lead to
connect to all exposed conductive parts of the DUT.
Note
When the EARTH RES Ω (GROUND WIRE RES Ω) function is exited, the
NULL value (OFFSET/ZERO) is held. To ensure accuracy of readings, it is
recommended that the nulling of the test lead resistance be performed
periodically, whenever a test lead is disconnected and reconnected, when
results are questionable, or when a new test lead is applied.

Using Remote Control
The ESA601 can be controlled by sending remote commands to the RS-232 serial port.
Setup Requirements
Set up the terminal emulator to 9600 baud, 8 bit, no parity, 1 start, 1 stop.
The serial-port connector is a 9-pin female D-SUB, configured as Data Communications
Equipment (DCE) and intended to connect straight through to Data Terminal Equipment
(DTE).
The supplied cable (P/N 2238626), is a cable with modem elimination (or null modem)
that can be used to connect to a PC serial port. If a “straight” serial cable is used, a
modem eliminator adapter is required.
To run a COM port or a PC, a terminal emulation program is required, with XON/XOFF
and RTS/CTS capabilities.
Note
For computer-setup specifications, refer to Appendix A in this manual.
Ansur ESA601 Plug-In Software Introduction

The Ansur Test Executive and ESA601 Plug-in software is an optional, PC-based
accessory to the ESA601 Electrical Safety Analyzer. These software programs are
included on the ESA601 CD and when installed, will run in DEMO mode. The ESA601
Plug-In software running under the Ansur Test Executive framework provides a
consistent user interface and the ability to standardize and automate testing.
Ansur handles all stages of testing via a PC and makes designing standardized test
procedures, capturing results, and saving or printing these results easy. Test procedure
templates are created in a simple, drag-and-drop manner or by typing technician
instructions. Each template can include a mix of visual inspection, preventative
maintenance, performance tests, and automated test sequences.
The software automatically captures and stores all test-related results, which can be
viewed or printed in three detail levels – single-page summary, condensed version, or full
results. Whether one or multiple Fluke Biomedical test devices are used, all results will
be conveniently stored in a single result file. Both the Ansur test templates and the test
results are stored in the popular and versatile Extensible Markup Language (XML) file
format.
To utilize the Ansur ESA601 Plug-In for computer automation in default demo mode,
install the Ansur Test Executive software followed by the ESA601 Plug-In software.
Connect your computer to the ESA601 via the optional null modem serial communication
cable (PN 2238626). Instructions for the application’s setup and use can be found in the
Ansur and ESA601 Plug-In Users Manual (Start | Programs | Fluke | Ansur Help | Ansur
User Manual or ESA601 Plug-In User Manual). The ESA601 Plug-In and Ansur product
line is Windows 2000 and Windows® XP compatible.
Following the ESA601 Plug-In’s installation, a number of sample test templates are
located in the Ansur Test Library directory. Each is designed to demonstrate an
automated test procedure based on the tests and limits of various country standards such
as: IEC 601-1, VDE, HEI, AAMI, DB9801, and AS/NZS. These are provided only as
samples. Users should create their own procedures to ensure local area compliance.

Operators Manual
Sending Commands from the Host Computer

1. Press ENTER on the PC keyboard to check communications. The analyzer should
return “?”.
2. Using the terminal-emulation program, type the command “REMOTE”. The analyzer
responds with "REMOTE MODE" and switches to the OFF function, that is, turns OFF
all Equipment-Outlet power.
3. Type the command for the selected function. For example, typing the command
below switches the ESA601 to the Protective-Earth-Resistance test:
FUNC=EARTH_RES
(For a complete list of remote-entry commands, refer to “Remote Control Commands.” in
this chapter.)
Remote Control Commands

The following guidelines apply to entering the remote-control commands in the table
below:
• The ESA601 executes a command upon a carriage return and/or a line feed.
• Alphabetic characters in commands are NOT case sensitive
• When entering commands using the keyboard, the BACKSPACE key operates
normally (that is, deletes the previously recorded character)
• When entering commands manually, the escape key discards the entire command.
Likewise, a programmed “ESC” (0x1b) discards the entire command.
• Whe a command is completed, a message is returned (usually “OK”).
• If a meter reading is over range, the analyzer responds with the message “OL”.
