  • Page 8: B Measuring Tension Of Under Load Batteries

    Do not touch the watch batteries with your hands to avoid a redox reaction on the surface of the battery B. Measuring tension (V) of batteries under load BATTERY FLASHTEST B1. Press the key on the main menu to measure the battery voltage under load (V) (operating).
  • Page 9: C Measuring The Movement Supply Voltage

    Si la tension d’arrêt indiquée à l’écran est supérieure à celle donnée par le fabricant (exemple : mouvement ISASWISS 1198, tension d’arrêt 0.8 V), cela signifie que le mouvement est encrassé ou endommagé. Ceci explique le besoin d’énergie supplémentaire. Dépannage : nettoyer ou changer le rouage. BATTERY FLASHTEST C1. Press the key on the main menu to measure the movement supply voltage.
  • Page 10: D Measuring The Coil Resistance

    The voltage of the ohmmeter is 0.2 V during the operation (a higher voltage than this value could corrupt the measurement). Caution : always remove the battery before measuring. The coil should not receive electrical energy during the measurement. COIL FLASHTEST D1. Press the key on the main menu to measure the coil resistance.
  • Page 11: E Unjamming The Wheel Trains

    It is then necessary to generate a powerful magnetic field to test or unjam the wheel train. If during this action the hands do not make a fast rotation, it means that a wheel (or wheels) is broken or that the wheel train is too dirty. TURBO FLASHTEST E1. Press the key on the main menu to unjam the wheel trains.
