WARNINGS!
BEFORE OPERATING THIS OR ANY OTHER TEST EQUIPMENT READ ALL SAFETY
WARNINGS AND UNDERSTAND THEM FULLY.
OPERATION:
This section describes a typical, step by step, operation of the MC2.
Open the top protection lid of the case and attach the test leads to the test set.
The Two (2) connections on the front plate make
+I
& -I are the current leads.
The Two (2) connections on the front plate make
+P
& -P are the Potential or Voltage leads.
By connecting a test specimen to the Current leads (See figure 2) and applying the potential leads
across the specimen the resistance readings will be determined.
Figure 2
Turn the Power switch, located at the power input connector to the “ON” p
osition.
The Initial screen, MAIN SELECTION, will appear. The Instrument will also make the initial
calibration.
Select the resistance range expected to be measured with the multi-turn Knob.
Press the multi-turn Knob when the indicator is pointing (Highlighted) at the resistance and
current level to be measured (If unsure of current level, then start at the 10A range and increase
the current ranges until a valid reading appears).
After the current range is selected press the multi-turn Knob again.
The following measuring modes can then be made:
SINGLE (Single test -8 seconds), CONT (Continuous Test), AUTO (Automatic Test)
SINGLE: The SINGLE mode allows a single test to be made. Turn the multi-turn Knob until
SINGLE is highlighted. Press the multi-turn Knob to select. The test set will start a measuring
sequence immediately. The system will sense the current output and, if it is a valid reading,
record the results on the display. The results can then be STORED or PRINTED.
CONT (Continuous): The CONT (Continuous) mode allows a single test to be made
continuously. The instrument will continuously measure until the operator presses STOP.
Turn the multi-turn Knob until CONT is highlighted. Press the multi-turn Knob to select. The
test set will start measuring immediately. The system will sense the current output and, if it is a
valid reading, display the results on the display. If the STOP button is selected the last valid
reading displayed will remain on the display.
CONTINUOUS TEST
NOTE: The results displayed can be stored or printed at anytime during the measurement
process.
