test fixture into the TCT-1000 connector.
c. Connect the DVM leads to the power supply leads.
d. Record the DVM calibration expiration date in the blank below the Records table.
5.2 20.0 Volt Cutoff
a. It may be necessary to repeat procedure 5.2. & 5.3 until all values fall within
range. When this is necessary there will be interim values that do no need to be
recorded in the Records section. The “final” readings to be recorded are the
readings in which no adjustment is required to complete Procedure 5.3.
b. Set the DVM to DC-Volts and a range capable of measuring up to 22 volts.
c. Turn
Power Switch
off.
d. Adjust power supply until DVM reads 21.0 volts.
