OPERATING THE SC6540 WITH HYPOTULTRA (Continued)
SETUP
The SC6540 Scanner channels can be set as High (H) for High Voltage or Continuity
testing output, Low (L) for the Return connection, or Open (O) for OFF. Channel
setup is done using the HypotULTRA menu or accompanying automation software.

The following setup procedure will refer to setup through the HypotULTRA setup
menu: from the Test Parameter Review screen (ACW, DCW, CONT, or IR) you can
scroll to nd the Scanner settings. Below is an example of the ACW Withstand Test
Parameter Review screen.
The above images show a HypotULTRA with 8 Internal Scanner channels and 8
external channels. The “Int Scanner” parameter in the menu pertains to an internal
8-channel Scanner and the “ExtScanner1” parameter pertains to an 8-channel high
voltage SC6540 Scanner.
To set the Scanner channels use the back (<) and forward (>) arrows and set the
channels to High (H), Low (L) or Open (O). Use the enter key ( ) to save the values
and move on to the next test parameter.
H (High) – High voltage output channel for a high voltage test or current output for a
continuity test.
L (Low) – High voltage return channel for a high voltage test or a current return for a
continuity test.
O (Open) – Channel is neither an output nor a return.
CONNECTIONS
Note: Each Scanner port on the rear panel of the HypotULTRA can only control 8 channels
of each type (HV or HC) at a time, which makes it possible to control a maximum total of 16
possible external Scanner channels. To control more than 16 external channels, automation
software must be used along with a SC6540 Main and a PC.
