Starting & general rules
Turn on the measuring instrument KE3500 with the hardware
module KECT3. On the opening screen the device name, the
logo of the manufacturer Kurth Electronic, the firmware
version, the UDMT version, the options installed, and the Hw-
Id. are displayed. Shortly after the self-test the main menu
appears. Before starting the measurements the user can make
basic device settings in the
Setup
. In most cases, the measure-
ments and settings can be selected using the menu-driven
user interface. For selecting the vertical control buttons are
used, then it is confirmed with the
SEL
button. Various cables
and test parameters are selected by pressing the function keys
F1 - F4
. In order to facilitate and speed up the operation, some
measuring modes can be selected directly using the function
keys. To move to the previous screen, press the
ESC
key. The
measurements begin immediately after selecting the
parameters.
Copper Parameters
You can easily create new copper parameters as base for
measurements within the menu item
Copper Parameters
. As
default, the common cable Y_4x2x06 is deposited. Intended for
the measurement, the cable satisfies other parameters, by the
input of only two values, such as the cable diameter and the
resistance per meter R, the remaining copper cable
parameters are calculated from KECT3. Only the cable
manufacturer specified VF-value needs to be entered. Press
F4
Edit and jump with the left-right control keys through the
values. The value is then selected with
SEL
and changed in the
context menu on the numeric keypad. Make sure that the new
settings are saved under a changed name as the default. Jump
to Name and confirm with
SEL
- then opens the context menu
to change the name - after changing the name go back to
Line
Parameters
again with
SEL
and press
F4
Save. The new name
now appears under
Cable Types
in the selection menu. With
SEL
the desired value is selected, which then is marked with a
hook at the right margin.
