Guidelines
• Do not place clamps or probes on stainless
steel hardware, such as bolt heads, washers, or
threaded posts. Stainless steel hardware can yield
low conductance values. If you have to test on
stainless steel, record it in your testing records.
• The jars might have grease on the terminals and
connections to prevent corrosion. You do not
have to wipe off the grease before attaching the
clamps or connecting the probes.
• Test each jar in the same location or position.
Changing the location of the test point might vary
test results.
Attaching the cable to jar posts
1. Attach the black clamp or probe tip to the black (–) ter-
minal. Refer to Figure 5.
2. Attach the red clamp or probe tip to the red (+) termi-
nal.
Selecting the last used test setup with the
TEST option
If you select the TEST option in the Main Menu and connect
to a battery, the analyzer tests using the parameters from
your last test setup or, if there is no setup in memory, the
default parameters.
Using the OPEN option
The OPEN option enables you to view the parameters of
a saved test setup. You can also use OPEN to change any
parameters EXCEPT:
JARS ONLY / JARS & 1 STRAP / JARS
& 2 STRAPS
POSTS PER JAR
JARS PER STRING
VOLTS PER JAR
VOLT & CONDUCTANCE / VOLT-
AGE ONLY / VOLTS THEN
CONDUCT(ANCE)
If you change these parameters you will erase the string's
test data. If you need to change them, use the NEW (TEST)
function and save the setup.
To use the OPEN option:
