Omicron COMPANO 100 Getting Started

Power up COMPANO 100
Press the On/Off key to power up COMPANO 100. Grant the test set about 30 s to boot up.
The test set starts in QUICK (→ chapter QUICK in User Manual).
Power down COMPANO 100
While COMPANO 100 is running, press the On/Off key again to turn off the test set.
COMPANO 100 does not shut off instantly, but performs a controlled shutdown instead.
To abort the controlled shutdown, press any other key of your choice at the front panel control.
A system shutdown is also initiated by a battery running low, shortly before a looming break-down of
the power supply.
6.1 Testing a relay in QUICK
1. When COMPANO 100 is powered up, turn the jog dial wheel until the focus is on the output
current field.
2. Press the jog dial wheel, set the current to a value of your choice (that is, a value that will make
the relay trip for sure), then press the jog dial wheel again.
3. By default, the timer is configured to start when you press the Start/Stop key, and to end when
there is a change at the dry contact connected to IN 1. Therefore, for many applications it may not
be necessary to change the timer from its default.
4. Press the Start/Stop key. The current is issued at the current output.
5. The current output is turned off by default as soon as the binary contact of the relay switches.
6. The timer records the duration of the relay trip time, that is, the time it took the relay to trip starting
from the moment of the current injection.
