3. PREPARATION FOR USE
3.1. INITIAL CHECKS
Before shipping, the instrument has been checked from an electric as well as mechanical
point of view. All possible precautions have been taken so that the instrument is delivered
undamaged. However, we recommend checking it to detect any damage possibly suffered
during transport. In case anomalies are found, immediately contact the Dealer.
We also recommend checking that the packaging contains all the components indicated in
§ 10.6. In case of discrepancy, please contact the Dealer. In case the instrument should
be returned, please follow the instructions given in § 11.
3.2. INSTRUMENT POWER SUPPLY
The instrument is powered by 6x1.2V NiMH rechargeable batteries type AA LR06 supplied
with the instrument or by 6x1.5V alkaline batteries type AA LR06. Rechargeable batteries
must be recharged by using the external charger A0060, also provided with the instrument.
The green “ ” symbol indicates a sufficient charge level for the correct performance of the
tests. The red “ ” symbol indicates an insufficient charge level for the correct performance
of the tests. In this case, recharge the batteries (see § 9.2).
CAUTION
If the external adapter is used, it is necessary to connect it first to the
instrument, then to the mains, then please connect the instrument to the
circuit to be tested
The external adapter A0060 can be used both for verification tests
(SAFETY) and for network analyses (PQA)
While recording it is recommended to use both the external adapter and
the rechargeable batteries, in order to guarantee the instrument’s supply
in case of voltage interruption
With low battery indication, stop the tests and recharge or replace the
batteries (see § 9.2)
The instrument is capable of keeping data stored even without batteries
The instrument has an AutoPower OFF function (which can be
deactivated) after 5 minutes’ idling (the Auto Power OFF is inactive while
recording – see § 5.1.3)
3.3. STORAGE
In order to guarantee precise measurement, after a long storage time under extreme
environmental conditions, wait for the instrument to come back to normal condition (see §
10.5.1).
