AUET/MTM MENU FUNCTIONS 

Selecting the Active Transducer 

1.  Rotate the Transducer Selection knob 

(Fig 2.) to select the active transducer. 

2.  All  functions  of  the  AUET  system 

outlined below will pertain to the active 
transducer only 

3.  Active transducer will be shown by an 

illuminated  LED  lamp  adjacent  to  the 
active  built-in  transducer,  or  no  LED 
lamp  visible  when  using  a  transducer 
connected to the external port. 

4.  Built-in  transducers  are  preset  and 

ready  for  use  immediately  upon 
selection. External transducers require 
setup and an additional cable (optional 
accessory). Intelect transducers do not 
require setup. (See page 17) 

 

Charging  the  Auditor  AUET  Desktop 
Torque Tester 

1.  Plug the 100 

– 240 VAC Charger into 

DC Power Supply port 

(Figure 3)

 

2.  Plug the Charger into a 100

–240 VAC 

power  outlet  using  the  appropriate 
plug end. 

3. 

Press  the  “Off”  button  on  the  front 
panel 

(Figure 1)

5.  When  the  AUET  is  fully  charged  the 

LED will stop flashing. 

6.  The  AUET  can  be  used  as  normal  in 

AC mode with the charger connected. 

7.  When  used  the  AUET  in  DC  mode 

(Battery) and the battery charge is low, 

the 

 symbol (low battery) will show 

on  the  Main  Display  screen,  see 

Figure  1

–240VAC 

Charger  should  be  plugged  into  the 
unit 

immediately 

to 

continue 

uninterrupted operation.
