3.3.2 Connecting the test fixture with the main body
The device to be measured is connected to the main body through the test adapter, test fixture,
connector box, and the input/output terminal of the main unit.
Connecting the test fixture to the main body
Insert horizontally the connector box into the input/output terminal of the main body so that there is
no gap between them.
Powering on and confirming connection
(1) Press the power on switch on the front panel.
After powering on, the initial setting screen appears. If you want to display with the previous
setting when powering on, use SYSTEM SETUP in UTILITY to set POWER ON SETUP to
LAST.
(2) Set HIGH VOLTAGE breaker or HIGH CURRENT breaker to ENABLED.
The output state of the screen is set to ENABLE. If not inserted completely, INTERLOCK will
light up.
If the test fixture is not connected or the cover of it opens, this instrument is changed to the
state of interlock and its output is shut off.
Note: When the breaker is set to ENABLED, the voltage being set by VARIABLE is generated.
Before carrying out measurement, confirm the breaker being set to ENABLED.
Caution!
mark in the front terminal of the main unit shows the following cautions.
♦
Please connect and use our test fixture CS-303 and CS-304 for the front terminal part of the
main unit.
Caution!
♦
If the cover of the test fixture is opened during measurement and then closed for the 2nd
measurement, the voltage or current for the 1st measurement is applied to a measured
device.
♦
The cable of the test fixture (Blue : COLLECTOR, Black : EMITTER) is connected with the I/O terminal
under the left of the front panel in case of CS-5400. Even if the cable has come off, the measurement is
begun. Moreover, there is an influence possibility in measurements when measuring in the uncertain
connected state.
