Step 2
Initiate power on the potential and current sources. Apply power to the RD-30. Upon successful
power up, the RD-30's LED will be green and RR-MobileSuite will have launched (see Section
8.1).
Step 3
Using the stylus, single tap on the Run Meter Test icon. The meter test screen will now appear
(see Section 8.8)
Step 4
Use the onscreen keyboard (see Section 8.10) to enter the DUT serial number.
Step 5
Use the onscreen keyboard to enter DUT Kh value.
Note: If performing KYZ testing, the meter's Ke factor should be entered in place of a
Kh value. Ke is the watthour pulse constant of each pulse from the pulse initiator (KYZ).
The value of the Ke is dependent upon the meter Kh and the type of test conducted. The
Ke factor of any meter may be calculated by using the following constants.
Kh = Watthour constant. The number of watthours represented by one revolution
of the disk. Also called the disk constant.
Mp = Number of revolutions per pulse
Example Calculation:
Ke = (Kh) x (Mp); if Kh = 1.8 watthours per revolution and Mp = 1 revolution per
12 pulses, then,
Ke = (1.8 Wh/1 rev) x (1 rev/12 pulses) = (1.8 Wh/12 pulses) = 0.15 Wh/pulse
Step 6
Use the stylus and the arrow keys on the Meter Test screen to enter/select the Pulses per Kh, #
Seconds or Pulses, DUT Elements, Test Type, Standard Elements, Phase and State. Repeat Step 6
for all applicable DUT(s).
Note: If performing KYZ testing, enter one pulse per Ke value.
