WARNING
See the chapter "2.2 Safety instructions"
on page 8.
1] Connect TORKEL to the mains voltage.
2] Switch on TORKEL.
The display will show the following after a
short time:
Connecting the current cables to
the battery
Important
Connection and disconnection procedures
are extremely important. Be sure to fol-
low the instructions.
Use the cables supplied with TORKEL or other cables
of suitable size. Follow the numbered steps that are
set forth below. Inspect each connection to make sure
it is securely fitted.
1] Connect one end of the first cable to the
negative (-) terminal on TORKEL.
2] Connect the other end of the first cable to
the negative (-) pole of the battery.
3] Connect one end of the second cable to the
positive (+) pole of the battery.
4] Connect the other end of the second cable to
the positive (+) terminal on TORKEL.
Tip
To get a more accurate voltage reading when
current cables are long and the discharge
current is high.
Connect the voltage sensing cables between
the “VOLTAGE SENSE” input on TORKEL and
the battery terminals.
The sensing cables (dotted lines) are normally not needed.
Note TORKEL automatically selects the voltage
range when voltage is applied to the high-
current terminals.
If load polarity is incorrect the load will not
be connected internally. On the display the
”space bar” will be red and an alarm will
sound. This is true for both the battery and
voltage sense terminals.
You can start a test in any of the menus.
While test is running you can go into any tab
and pause the test and make changes and
continue the test.
