7 Accessories
The following accessories can be used in conjunction with the 1656 or 1657 Battery Element
Testers. The operation of these accessories is covered in this section.
7.1 Type 070 Adapter Module
The STS Instruments Type 070 I/O adapter allows the 1656 and 1657 Battery Element Testers to
interface with battery production lines that were set up for previous generation 1652/070 BET
model Input and Output Controls.
This adapter converts 115Vac control signaling to isolated low level signal input appropriate for
the 1656 and 1657.
Using this Adapter module, the following features can be added to the newer STS 1656/1657
model testers:
• Elimination of the modular AC line cord
• Operation on 115Vac input only
• Adds 3/4 inch hole for wire-harness feed-through
• Internal 6 Position Input/Output terminal strip
