Selecting what to measure
(VOLT & CONDUCTANCE)
The default is VOLT & CONDUCTANCE.
1. Press the
ARROW
keys to highlight VOLT & CONDUCTANCE, and press
ENTER
.
2. Press the
ARROW
keys (or use the numeric keypad) to check the box next to your choice:
VOLTAGE ONLY, VOLT & CONDUCTANCE, VOLTS THEN CONDUCT(ANCE).
NOTE:
Select VOLTS THEN CONDUCT(ANCE) if you are measuring conductance and do
not want conductance testing to affect your voltage measurements. After you measure the
voltage of the jars (or jars and straps) in a string, disconnect, then reconnect to the
fi
rst jar in
the string to complete the test by measuring conductance.
3. Press
ENTER
to accept.
NOTE:
Once you start the conductance portion of the VOLTS THEN CONDUCTANCE test,
you will not be able retest voltage. Be sure to review your voltage reading before you start
your conductance portion of the test.
Selecting the string
TEMPERATURE
The default is 25 °C (77 °F). Conductance measurements vary by jar temperature. To compensate,
the analyzer uses the TEMPERATURE value to adjust the percentage of the reference value you set
in the UTILITIES SETUP as the WARN/FAIL threshold. The percent is compensated to 25
°
C (77
°
F).
Compensation is adjusted at 0.7% per degree Celsius between 0
°
C and 35
°
C. (The kit includes an
infrared temperature sensor and instructions.)
1. Press the
ARROW
keys to highlight TEMPERATURE, and press
ENTER
.
2. Press the
ARROW
keys (or use the numeric keypad) to select a value.
3. Press
ENTER
to accept.
Saving the
BATTERY SETUP
To save your settings for later use, press the
ARROW
keys to highlight SAVE AND CONTINUE, and
press
ENTER
. You are returned to the
NEW
test menu. To use a saved BATTERY SETUP to test a
string, see
Selecting the TEST option
in
Chapter 6: Testing
.
To save your settings for immediate testing, connect the clamps or probes and press the
ARROW
to
highlight SAVE AND TEST. Press
ENTER
to start the test. (See
Chapter 6: Testing
.)
