NOTE
When indirectly connecting the
appliance to the battery (using a
jumper), the measurement cannot
be performed entirely correctly and
the test result will deviate slightly
from the actual state of the battery.
Therefore, if in doubt, remove
the battery and test it while it is
uninstalled.
3.4.4 Selecting the battery test standard
and value
The appliance tests batteries according to
the standard which has been selected.
After selecting the battery type and the con-
nection position, the test standard according
to which the battery is to be tested and the
cold-start current must be specified.
SELECT INPUT
CCA
The following test standards are available
for selection here:
CCA:
Cold Cranking Amps, laid down by
SAE & BCI, most commonly used
values for starter batteries at (-18 °C)
BCI:
Battery Council International
Standard
CA:
Cranking Amps Standard
(effective starting current at 0 °C)
MCA:
Marine Cranking Amps Standard
(effective starting current at 0 °C)
JIS:
Japan Industrial Standard
(is specified as an alphanumeric code
such as 55D23, 80D26)
DIN:
Deutsches Institut für Normung
(German Institute for Standardization)
IEC:
Internal Electrotechnical Commission
Standard
EN:
European Automobile Industry
Association Standard
SAE:
Society of Automotive Engineers
Standard
GB:
China National Standard.
In the next step, the value for the cold-start
current must be specified.
