Learn Mode Precautions
A good battery must be used to calibrate a
battery’s profile. OEM batteries have unique
profiles that should not be used when testing
non-OEM batteries. For each new non-OEM
battery, create a new profile. The factory
settings can not be modified in the field,
however by utilizing the
function one can learn a non-OEM battery.
It is very important that the battery you are
using the LEARN MODE function for must be
at least 95% of the stated capacity and a
should be performed on
the battery in question and entered when
requested in the LEARN MODE. It is a good
idea to set the acceptable deviation to
35% to begin with. The learning of a good
non-OEM battery will enable you to perform
a QUICK TEST (QT) in station #1 of the X3 and
stations #(1) and #(4) of the X6.

Impedance Test
Impedance of a battery can be a good indicator of degradation of a battery’s performance. In general, the lower
the impedance number the better the battery performance during discharge. As a battery ages the
impedance starts to rise indicating possible problems with the electrolyte, separator, contact corrosion, or
metal interfaces, all impact the impedance.
The initial impedance of a new battery should be recorded and compared through the life of a battery and a
determination can be made to remove the battery from service when the impedance rises out of range.
The Analyzer X3 and X6 produce impedance results within a 15 seconds of testing and displays the impedance in
Ohms on the display or on a printout when an optional printer is used.
Follow the directions
This test is only performed in Pocket #1 for the X3 and pockets #1 and #4 for the X6.
