C OPERAND FOR BATTERY TESTING
“C” Value:
1.0000A
The eLoa d provides the “C” operand. This is especia lly useful for ba ttery testing applica tions that use “C” a s the ba ttery
ca pacity unit. The user ca n avoid troublesome ca lcula tions by monitoring a nd testing the ba ttery directly. After the user
changes the displa y combina tion to V + C, a ll current va lues entered and/or mea sured will be in “C” automa tica lly. The
Current value will be scaled according to its value in C units, for example if a “C” value of 10 A is entered, a main value
setting of 20 A will be represented a s 2 C.
Press the "Menu/Loca l" key, select displa y mode a nd then press ENTER. Turn the encoder

to select the "C" va lue.
Press the "ENTER" key, input the desired value, and then press "ENTER". Then Press “CLEAR” to exit the “C” operand
mode.
