To connect an external load for energy measurement purposes, follow the next steps:
1. Turn OFF the D5-PF tester.
2. Connect the 100X Jumper in the rear panel for internal load.
3. Unplug all the cables from the outputs.
4.
Set Aux output switch to “Return” position.
5.
Set S3 to “Open” position.
6. Set the inductor switch to 25 mH.
7. Only if the option 34 is included on the D5-P:2011, set the Trigger time switch to 200mS and, install the
50k ohm jumper on the front panel. Select the internal inductance of
8. Turn ON the D5-PF tester.
9. Press the TRIGGER button to discharge the tester and make sure the front meter display reads a safe low
voltage.
10. Turn OFF the MegaPulse D5-PF.

6. Turn OFF the D5-PF tester.
Sine Wave Generator
The Sine Wave Generator option is offered as a separate upgrade to the unit. The sine wave is adjustable and must
be set up using an oscilloscope. The Sine Wave Generator signal characteristics are defined as follows:

Frequency = 10Hz

The sine wave is adjustable from 200mVp-p to 22Vp-p

Coarse and Fine adjustments for the peak voltage

The BNC is an output to monitor on an oscilloscope
A 1MΩ impedance input on the oscilloscope needs to be used to measure the sine waveform.
