CAUTION!
The resistance meter contains electrostatic discharge sensitive (ESDS) components and includes
precision alignment of circuit elements. Only Prostat trained and qualified instrument repair
personnel should perform service.
WARNING!
To prevent electrical shock, do not touch energized circuits, leads or fixtures while grounded.
Use pre-tested ground connections meeting local safety codes for personnel earth grounding.
Refer to National Electrical Codes and ESD Association Standard ANSI/ESD S6.1 Grounding for
information and procedures. Only qualified personnel should conduct ground test measurements.
02 GETTING STARTED
Battery Pack
The resistance meter operates using a 3 cell Li-ion battery pack. To comply with IATA shipping
regulations, the meter is shipped at a 30% state of charge (SoC). Completely discharged batteries can
cause the resistance meter not to start up when it is turned on. To reach full charge, charge for 2-3
hours with the meter turned off.
When fully charged, the batteries provide approximately 8,000 measurements or up to 48 hours of
use when measuring at 100 volts, in Continuous Mode. Battery life exceeds this when used in Auto
and Manual modes.
The battery status shows as an icon in the top left corner of the display:
- Indicates full charge
- Indicates approx. 20% of operations remains
When the battery capacity decreases to ≤ 20%, the bottom battery level segment will be flashing at 2
Hz rate.
To charge the batteries and power the instrument, use one of the two options as shown in Figure 1
and Figure 2.
