Recommended Test Procedure
The DSS-5000 testing process uses Conductance Profiling™
technology which determines battery cranking capability and
also adds Reserve Capacity testing. With this additional process,
initial battery analysis can take up to 60 seconds to complete.
IMPORTANT: Always begin each test by connecting the
Tester Pod clamps to the battery being tested. The test-
ing process begins as soon as the clamps are connected.
The DSS-5000 provides a battery decision along with additional
detailed information on battery cranking and reserve capacity.
Swipe the screen horizontally to the right or left to view the
additional results screens.
