Page 6: General Operating Instructions
1 General Operating Instructions This section describes general operating instructions that apply to all of the testing modes. Before connecting the 603B to any battery or circuit read and follow the information provided in the safety section. Verify the voltage and current is within the safe operating range of the 603B. Refer to the Specifications section. The 603B is powered by the battery or charger circuit under test. The 603B does not have a power switch and will power on and display the voltage when the properly connected to a battery with sufficient power. If nothing is displayed or the display blinks on and off the power is not sufficient and testing cannot proceed. 1.1 Ready The 603B 1. Two types of cables are available for use with the 603B. One set is intended for smaller batteries that connect with tab type connectors and the other set has larger jaws to accommodate batteries with bolt on or clamp type terminals. Select the cable type that will make the best connection with the battery to be tested. Tab type Terminal type 2. Identify the cable ends with the 3-pin twist lock connector. One of the cables will have a red band on the end near the 3-pin connector. This cable will be installed in the positive side of the 603B identified with the red plus sign... - Page 7 The outer ring can now be rotated until the groves align and the ring move slightly forward. Continue to gently push the connector forward while twisting the outer ring. The outer ring should easily turn clockwise ¼ turn locking the two mating connectors together. Gently pull on the shell of the connector to make sure the cable is locked into place. Install the Remaining negative cable in the same manor. 5. If the system has 2 batteries, test each battery separate. 6. The 603B use a 3 wire connection to improve accuracy. This requires both sides of the each alligator clip to make a good connection between the jaws of the alligator clip and the terminal. Good Connection Bad Connection Both sides of the alligator clip are making In these two examples one side of the good connection to the battery terminal.

This feature supports testing batteries of the same type without the need of reentering the ampere hour value each time the meter is disconnected and reconnected. It’s important to remember that the Quick Test mode does not save measurement results. 1. Disconnect the battery or batteries from the charger circuit. Dress the charger circuit leads so they do not come in contact with each other or any other conductive parts of the cabinet or control board. 2. Verify that battery voltage and Ah, is within the specifications of the 603B. 3. Connect the battery observing the correct polarity.

Page 11: Quick Test Mode - Pass/Fail
3.1 Quick Test Mode - Pass/Fail The Pass/fail option compares a batteries’ internal resistance to a known good nominal value and determines if the battery under test is PASS or FAIL. The Nominal Internal Resistance or “NIR” value is optional. If the NIR is set to the default of value of N/A the 603B will display RS: N/A. The NIR entered is compared to the battery under test measured IR. If the battery under test is less than or equal to 160% of the NIR value the 603B will display “RS: PASS” in the field. If the value is above 160% the 603B will display “RS: PASS” in the field. Example: The NIR is set by the user to 23 milliohms then the threshold can be calculated: 160% X NIR = 1.6 X 23 = 36.8 If the 603B measured IR is equal to or greater than 36.8 the 603B will display RS: FAIL Three methods can be used to determine the “NIR” value to be enter. 1. Find the IR value on the battery manufacturer’s data sheet. 2. Use the 603B to measure the IR of a known good battery of the same type. 3. Use another battery analyzer like the B&K Precision model BA6010 to measure batteries’ IR. Note: The known good battery should be new and made by the same manufacturer with the same model number. 1. Set the Ah value as describe in Quick Test, SOC section. If the Ah value is correct move to the next step. 2. Press the button to move the cursor over to the “NIR = …“ field. The range includes N/A and 1 to 100. Press and hold is also supported for rapid changes. 3. Enter the NIR using the buttons. Press and hold is also supported for rapid changes. 4. Press the button to proceed. The NIR entered is compared to the battery under test measured IR. If the battery under test is less than or equal to 160% of the NIR value the 603B will display will indicate PASS in the “RS:” field. If the value is above 160% the 603B will display will indicate FAIL. This percentage cannot be changed BATTERY QUICK TEST VO : 12. 66 SOC : 90 VL : 12. -

Charger adapter An adapter is provided with an F1 tab on one end and F2 tab on the other. Using the correctly sized tab, plug one end of the adapter into the leads of the system charger circuit. The other end of the adapter is used for an attachment point for the 603B tab type, alligator clips. 1. Connect the 603B cables and verify the positive and negative leads are correct and the Reverse Polarity LED is not illuminated. VO = 12.78 Volts Quick press [TEST] Main press [ENTER] 2. Press the button to move to the Quick Test menu. - Page 13 Press TEST or CANCEL Both “OCV:” and “LCV:” will be measured and displayed. If the LCV voltage is significantly below the OCV: the voltage charger circuit could have a problem. Contact the control panel (charger), manufacturer for more information. The back light will turn off indicating the test has started. Both the open voltage OCV: and the loaded voltage LCV: are displayed. If the LCV drops will below the OCV value the charger circuit regulator could be faulty. The results of the test must be interpreted by the technician as each type of charger circuit is different. Contact the charger circuit manufacture for more information. Tip: In a two battery system use the Ah value of one battery. Example, a fire alarm control panel has two 12 V batteries connected in series to provide the FACP with 24 volts. The charger circuit in the FACP is designed to charge at just over 24 volts. The 603B will use this Ah value of one of the batteries to calculate and apply a parcel load on the charger circuit. Battery Capacity Analyzer User Manual...

Weighting is an estimating method used to provide a more useful representation of the batteries’ State of Charge (SOC). The user must provide the nominal internal resistance (NIR) value for this feature to function. NIR can be entered in the Quick test mode for using during the Quick test or added to the record for use in Record Mode. When SOC Weighting is turned off the 603B calculates the SOC using the same method as a volt meter and an SOC chart. The batteries open terminal voltage and a lookup table in memory is used to find and estimate the batteries remaining capacity. If SOC Weighting is On the IR and NIR are compared and if the measured IR is not equal to NIR the remaining battery capacity displayed is reduced. Increased battery IR is a normal part of the battery aging process. The weighting algorithm used in the 603B is suitable for most SLA type batteries used in the alarm, CCTV, and access control industries. Three methods can be used to determine the “NIR” value to be enter. 1. Find the IR value on the battery manufacturer’s data sheet. 2. Use the 603B to measure the IR of a new battery. 3. Use another battery analyzer like the B&K Precision model BA6010 to measure batteries’ IR. Note: The known good battery should be new and made by the same manufacturer with the model number. 4.6.10 Firmware Version To view the firmware version, 1.
