Starting Measuring With The C-80 - Circutor C-80 Instruction Manual

-------------- SYSTEM ANALYZER

3.4.- Starting measuring with the C-80

1. To power the equipment connect 2 x 1.5 V DC batteries (LR6, type AA). The lower
cover on the rear of the equipment has to be removed and the batteries inserted
into the correct slot (check the polarity).
NOTE: Whilst doing this, the equipment has to be disconnected from the power
supply.
2. Attach the voltage terminals to each system phase that is to be measured. Point
3.2 Connection diagrams.
NOTE: The user must change between single phase mode or three phase mode
by giving a short press on the II/III button, depending on the type of
installation.
3. Attach the correct current clamp on phase 3 (balanced three phase) or on phase 1
(single phase).
4. Keep to the connections shown in the diagrams to obtain power readings, P.F. and
correct form of energies.
To start up the equipment:
5. Press the [ON/OFF] switch on the front of the analyzer. After starting the C-80
software version appears on the display.
6. At this point, the C-80 will detect the clamp connected. This process of self
detection is done when a new clamp is connected. (See point 3 Connection and
start-up).
7. After a few seconds the main system parameters will appear on the display.
When starting measurements in a particular installation the equipment settings have
to be checked and if necessary changed (following the instructions in section 4 Programming
and displaying parameters). If this is not done, it may mean that the measurements are not
correct.
The C-80 Analyzer has an energy saving system. If no key is touched for 5 minutes,
the C-80 switches itself off. This does not occur if the equipment is recording.
To switch off the equipment, the [ON/OFF] button has to be pressed.
