LCR200-EU-EN V1.5 11/13
Operation
Setup
1.
Press the
Power button to turn the meter on.
2.
The meter will turn on in the default mode: AUTO LCR and 1kHz
3.
APO will be active with auto shutoff every 5 minutes unless an AC adaptor is used.
LCR primary parameter selection
1.
The meter will turn on with auto parameter selection enabled and with the ”APO” (auto power
off), “Auto” (autoranging) and “LCR” (auto-parameter) icons appearing at the top of the
display.
2.
To manually select the parameter, press the L/C/R button to step through and select the
parameter needed. Each button press will sequentially display:
Auto-LCR
Auto Range
Auto Parameter
Auto-L Auto
Range Inductance
Auto-C Auto
Range Capacitance
Auto-R Auto
Range Resistance
DCR
DC
Resistance
3.
The value of the primary parameter will be displayed in the upper display and the secondary
parameter in the lower display.
D/Q/
θ
secondary parameter selection
1.
The meter will turn on with auto parameter selection “LCR” enabled. .The primary and
secondary parameter will be automatically selected based on the value of the measured
impedance.
2.
To manually select the secondary display, first select the primary display.
3.
Press the D/Q/
θ
button to select the secondary parameter:
L
D, Q, ESR(RP) or
θ
C
D, Q, ESR(RP) or
θ
R
none
DCR
none
4.
The value of the secondary parameter will be displayed in the lower display
Series or Parallel
1.
When the L/C/R function mode is selected and ‘AUTO” is enabled, the default measurement
in serial or parallel mode is auto selected. A parallel equivalent circuit (Lp, Cp or Rp) will be
selected if the impedance is greater than 10k
Ω
. A series equivalent circuit ( Ls, Cs or Rs) will
be selected if the impedance is less than 10k
Ω
.
2.
Press the SER/PAR button as needed to change the default selection.
Frequency
Press the FREQ button to change the test frequency. The selections are: 100Hz, 120Hz, 1kHz,
10kHz and 100kHz.
Data Hold
Press the HOLD button to freeze the reading in the display. Push the HOLD key again to cancel
the hold mode and return to normal operation.
