2.4 Connecting the Power Source (Alkaline Batteries or AC Adapter)
18
Connect the Model 9418-15 AC Adapter and power cord that came with the instrument and then
connect the power cord to a wall outlet. When the adapter is used along with alkaline dry-cell batter-
ies, the AC adapter takes precedence. If the supply of power from the AC adapter is interrupted, the
instrument will switch over to battery power. When power returns, it will automatically revert to
power from the AC adapter.
You can also use the instrument with DC power source input, for example from an external battery.
The instrument can be powered with a 10 to 27 VDC signal from the AC adapter jack. Hioki can pro-
vide cables for this purpose on a special-order basis. For more information, please contact your
dealer or Hioki representative.
The cable connecting the battery and instrument should not exceed 3 m in length.
Connecting the AC adapter
Before connecting the AC adapter, be sure to read "Using the AC Adapter" (p. 8) and
"Handling the Cords and Cables" (p. 7).
Rated supply voltage is 100 to 240 VAC, and rated sup-
ply frequency is 50 or 60 Hz.
