INTRODUCTION
The actual instruction describes the technique of voltage regulator diagnostics (hereinafter
“the voltage regulator”) with tester RTP9007S (hereinafter “the tester”) to detect faults in
alternator and voltage regulator performance.
WARNING! The actual instruction does not provide a description of all the diagnostic
aspects. If you lack knowledge or experience, we recommend you to take training at the
equipment manufacturing facility.
WARNING! Company MSG Equipment shall not be held liable for any damage to the tester
resulted from its improper use.
The tester performs the following operations:
1. Performance evaluation of automotive alternators with electromagnetic excitation and
nominal voltage of 12/24V. An alternator can be tested either directly in a car or on the test
bench that provides its drive.
2. Performance evaluation of voltage regulators with electromagnetic excitation and nominal
voltage of 12/24V separately from alternators. The diagnostics of alternators and voltage
regulators is carried out on the following parameters:
- Setting accuracy of stabilizing voltage;
- Assessment of control lamp performance;
- FR (load on alternator).
For COM regulators (additionally):
- ID;
- Protocol;
- Data exchange rate;
- Type of LIN protocol;
- Self-diagnostics errors.
