19
GSB-01/GSB-02 Series User Manual
Background
The GPT-9000 is a high voltage instrument that
outputs dangerous voltages. The following
section describes precautions and procedures
that must be followed to ensure that the tester
along with any conned scanner boxes are
operated in a safe manner.
WARNING
The GPT-9000 generates voltages of up to 5kVAC
or 6kVDC. Follow all safety precautions, warnings
and directions given in the following section when
using the instrument.
1. Never touch the safety tester, lead wires,
terminals, probes, connected scanner box(es) or
any other connected equipment when the tester
is testing.
2. Do not turn the safety tester on and off quickly
or repeatedly. When turning the power off,
please allow a few moments before turning the
power back on. This will allow the protection
circuits to properly initialize.
Do not turn the power off when a test is
running, unless in an emergency.
3. Only use those test leads supplied with the
instrument. Leads with inappropriate gauges
can be dangerous to both the operator and the
instrument.
For GB testing, never use the Sense leads on the
SOURCE terminals.
4. Do not short the HIGH VOLTAGE terminal
with ground. Doing so could charge the chassis
to dangerously high voltages.
Operating Precautions
20
GETTING STARTED
5. Ensure the earth ground of the line voltage is
properly grounded.
6. Only connect the test leads to the HIGH
VOLTAGE/SOURCE H/SENSE H terminals
before the start of a test. Keep the test leads
disconnected at all other times.
7. Always press the STOP button when pausing
testing.
8. Do not leave the safety tester unattended.
Always turn the power off when leaving the
testing area.
9. When remotely controlling the safety tester,

prevent:
Inadvertent output of the test voltage.
Accidental contact with the instrument during
testing. Ensure that the instrument and DUT are
fully isolated when the instrument is remotely
controlled.
10. Ensure an adequate discharge time for the
DUT.
When DCW or IR tests are performed, the DUT,
test leads and probes become highly charged.
The GPT-9000 has discharge circuitry to
discharge the DUT after each test. The time
required for a DUT to discharge depends on the
DUT and test voltage.
Never disconnect the safety tester before a
discharge is completed.
21
GSB-01/GSB-02 Series User Manual
Background
The GSB-01/GSB-02 are used with high voltage
devices and as such, daily safety checks should
be made to ensure safe operation.
1. Ensure all test leads are not broken and are free
from defects such as cracks or splitting.
2. Ensure the scanner box(es) are always
connected to an earth ground.
3. Test the operation of the safety tester + scanner
box(es) with a low voltage/current output:
Ensure the safety tester generates a FAIL
judgment when the HIGH VOLTAGE and
RETURN terminals are shorted (using the
lowest voltage/current as the testing
parameters).
WARNING
Do not use high voltages/currents when the HIGH
VOLTAGE and RETURN terminals are shorted. It
may result in damage to the instrument.

Background
The terminals on the rear panel of the scanner
boxes are divided into two sections, input and
output.
The input section is used (as shown previously)
to daisy chain scanner boxes together.
The output section is used to connect up to 8
DUTs. The GSB-01 is only used for DCW, ACW
and IR testing. The GSB-02 (shown) replaces
two high voltage terminals with a pair of
SENSE H/SOURCE H terminals for GB testing.
For all 8 channels (GSB-01) or channel 1~6(GSB-
02) the terminals can be assigned as either HV
or LO (High voltage or return) terminals on the
GPT safety tester. This allows the scanner boxes
to be quite flexible to your testing needs.
NOTE
The GB outputs (channel 7 and 8) can only be
configured as HI terminals or be disabled.

Creating a Test Setup
This section describes how to create, edit and run tests using the
scanner box interfaces. In principal we will be showing you how to
configure the output terminals on the scanner box rear panel. For
the GSB-01, each terminal can be configured as either an HV output
(hereafter referred to as HI) or as a return terminal (hereafter
referred to as LO). For the GSB-02, channels 1 to 6 can be
configured to HI or LO terminals as well. However for channels 7
and 8, the GSB-02 can also configure these channels into pairs of
Source/Sense HI.
Thus each terminal on the scanner boxes must be configured based
on the desired test setup, as referred to in the previous chapter on
page 25.
Before operating the safety tester please read the safety precautions
as outlined in the Safety Considerations chapter on page 18.

The scanner box output is configured
separately for each manual test. This allows you
to have one manual test to test multiple DUTs
at the same time from a number of scanner
boxes.
For automatic tests, each manual test can be
seen as configuring the output of one step of
the automatic test.
This section will assume that you are only
configuring a single manual test. For automatic
tests, repeat the instructions below for each
manual test that is added to the automatic test.
Note
For the GSB-02, the GB outputs can only be set to
HI or disabled.

safety tester must be divided by the number of
channels that are turned on for the test. For
example, if channels 1 to 3 are turned on for an
ACW test, then the test current must be divided by
3 to determine the result from each channel
(assuming identical DUTs).

Background
If the test is allowed to run to completion (the
test is not stopped or a protection setting is not
tripped) then the tester will judge the test(s) as
either PASS or FAIL.
The pass/fail result of the test(s) is shown on
the safety tester display and the scanner box(s).
Please note that when multiple DUTs are tested
simultaneously and a fail result is produced, it
indicates that at least one DUT failed the test. It
doesn’t indicate which of the DUTs passed or
failed. Each DUT would have to be tested
separately to determine that.
Note
The test will be judged PASS when:
The HI SET and LO SET limits have not been
tripped during the test time.
The test will be judged FAIL when:
Either the HI SET or LO SET limit has been
tripped during the test time.
A protection setting has been tripped during
the test time.
Test may not finish if the scanner boxes are not
properly connected.

OPERATION
Background
It is assumed that you already know how to
create an automatic test. This section will only
give the essential instructions for creating an
automatic test. For more comprehensive details,
please see the GTP-9000 user manual.
Steps
1. If the tester is in MANU mode,
press and hold the MANU/AUTO
key for three seconds. This will put
the tester into Auto mode.
The tester can only switch between
AUTO and MANU mode when in
the VIEW status.
MANU/AUTO
Automatic Tests
This section describes how to create and run automatic tests for the
GSB-01/GSB-02 scanner boxes.
An automatic test comprises of up 16 MANU tests that are run
sequentially. In order to run an automatic test using the GSB01/GSB-02 scanner boxes, the scanner outputs for each manual test
must first be configured, and then each manual test in the automatic
test can be stepped through. In other words, the channel outputs
are directed by the manual tests that comprise the automatic test.
It is assumed that you have read and understood how to create an
automatic test on the GPT-9000 safety tester. If you are not sure
how to create and run an automatic test on the safety tester, please
see the GPT-9000 user manual.
Before operating the GPT-9000 please read the safety precautions as
outlined in the Set Up chapter on page 18.

FAQ
I get a scanner error when I run a test.
A scanner error indicates that the HV and return terminals haven’t
been properly connected between the safety tester and the
scanner(s).
The tester will stop testing midway through an automatic
test.
You may have PASS HOLD turned on or FAIL MODE set to HOLD.
Press the Start button to continue to the next test. See the user
manual for setting details.
When I press the START button the tester will not start
testing?
The tester must first be in the READY status before a test can be
started. Ensure the tester displays READY before pressing the
START button.
If “Double Action” is enabled, the START button must be pressed
0.5 seconds after the STOP button is pressed, otherwise the tester
will not start testing.
71
GSB-01/GSB-02 Series User Manual
If “Interlock” is enabled, the interlock key must be inserted into the
signal I/O port on the rear before a test can be started.
Lastly, ensure that the Start Ctrl setting is correctly configured in
the Common Utility menu. For example, to enable the START
button to start a test, ensure that the Start Ctrl setting is set to
FRONT PANEL.
