Application Information

11.0 Application Information
Please note all application information in this manual is to describe test procedures utilizing the
RD-30's QVGA Display, Built-in-Computer, and Power options.
11.1 Meter Testing
The RD-30 can be used in the field or in the laboratory to test single or three phase meters where a
high degree of accuracy is required. The meter test may be actuated manually by using a snap-
switch or automated by the use of various Radian Research sensors that will sense disk revolu-
tions, infrared and visible optical pulses, and KYZ signals.
Manual Meter Testing Using the RM-1S Switch
Step 1
Make all appropriate connections (see Figure 10.1) so the DUT (Device Under Test) and RD-30
are powered by the same source. Connect the RM-1S to the applicable Input Port (see Section
4.7).
