Procedure for Operation
6.1
Assemble the CANARY
1.
Place case on a flat, stable surface.
2.
Remove the Base Unit from the case.
3.
Select Long or Short Handle, slide in place then secure with handle
locking pin.
4.
Remove Head Module from case and connect the Gooseneck to the Head
Module if not already connected.
5.
Clamp the Head Module assembly to the Handle in the preferred position.
6.
Connect the Wiring Harness to the Head Module assembly if required.
7.
Unfold probes from the storage position by removing the quick release
pins and unfold the probes. Reinstall pins to secure the probe arms in the
extended position.
8.
The unit is now ready to use.
6.2
Make a Grounded Connection
This step is required when using the
Voltage to Ground
mode. This allows the
meter to reference accurate ground and precise voltage at the test location and
should always be the first test performed after Unit Test.
1.
Using the
supplied “Green” CSA/UL approved 3 prong Ground Adapter
Cord, plug into the nearest AC outlet and connect it to the CANARY
electrical connector on the unit's handle.
NOTE: You may use a maximum 200 feet of commercial extension cord
connected to the CANARY electrical adapter cord as required to facilitate the
ground connection.
IMPORTANT:
THE CANARY DOES NOT USE AC POWER,
EVEN WHEN CONNECTED TO A GROUND ADAPTER CORD
FOR GROUNDING REFERENCE.
