( p. 131 • CC-CV, CP, and CP Pattern are controlled by the PFX2532 voltage sensing function. Be sure to connect the PFX2532 cell voltage sensing cables to the DUT. • Risk of damaging the DUT. If you leave the cell voltage sensing cables connected to the DUT, the DUT will continue to discharge a minute current.

Finally, the display enters voltage display mode. The PFX2532 is ready to execute tests (POWER state) and can receive commands from BPChecker3000. If the POWER switch is turned on for the first time after purchase, the PFX2532 starts up using p. 59 factory default settings.
Page 113 Risk of malfunction. CAUTION • After you turn the PFX2532 POWER switch off, wait at least 10 seconds before you turn it back on. Do not turn the power on and off repeatedly. • Do not turn off the POWER switch while a charge/discharge test is in progress.

Page 126: B Cleaning The Dust Filter
• If the dust filter is clogged, the product’s internal cooling capabilities will be reduced. • When the PFX2532 is in operation, air is sucked through the dust filter to cool the inside of the device. If moisture is present in the dust filter, the temperature or humidity inside the PFX2532 increases.
Page 127: C Characteristics Of Digital Cc/Cv
Characteristics of Digital CC/CV Control The constant current (CC)/constant voltage (CV) control on the PFX2532 is performed digitally. This section describes the characteristics and operation principle of digital CC/CV control so that you can efficiently conduct evaluation tests. ● Digital CC/CV control is not susceptible to the performance of the connected DC power supplies or electronic loads and constantly enables high-accuracy CC/CV control.
