 

RJ45 connector (Accessories Port) with a release lever for 

accessory connections.

 

6-pin connector, with a locking ring, for the battery test 

leads.

 

Temperature measurement sensor.

 

Data transmitter, which transmits test results to an IR 

printer.

 

  DB-9 connector for 

future accessories.

 

Spring-loaded data card 

slot for test data storage 

and software upgrades.

Connecting The Battery Test Cable

Connect the battery test cable to the tester by first aligning 

the cable connector’s 6 pins with the holes on top of the tester. 

Firmly insert the connector and finger-tighten the locking ring.

 IMPORTANT: Do not turn the locking ring more than 

¾ of a turn or you will damage the tester components.

Connecting An Accessory Cable

If you are using an accessory cable, plug it into the accessories 

port on top of the tester as you would a phone jack. To remove 

it, press the lever and pull out the cable connector.

Data Card

The analyzer ships with a plastic insert in the data card slot to 

protect it from dust and debris. To remove the plastic insert 

or a data card, push briefly on its edge to release it and pull it 

from the slot.
When inserting a card, push it into the slot until it locks. The 

card is correctly inserted when it is not protruding from the 

slot. To protect the card slot and enable the analyzer to read 

and write to the card, leave the card in the slot.
