RMO500 Remote Control
8 Remote Control
The RMO Remote Control Unit is an optional control unit that is used to start
and stop the tests from a remote location, away from the actual RMO.
Provided that, for a series of tests, the same test current is fed through the test
object, multiple measurements can be carried out with the RMO Remote Control
Unit.
Otherwise, the test current setting needs to be changed on the RMO for each new
test.
8.1 Connecting the Remote Control Unit to RMO and Test Object
Turn off RMO and plug in the
Remote Control Unit to
connector on the RMO’ s front
panel.
Connect the Remote Control
Unit to the test object (R
X
) in
such a way that the measuring
cables from the "Voltage
Sense" sockets are situated as
close as possible to R
X
, and in
between the current feeding
cables from RMO. That way,
both the cable’s and the
clamps’ typical contact
resistance is largely excluded
from the resistance
measurement.
Note: Never connect the Remote Control Unit to any other device but RMO.
