3.2.3 Battery cable and amp clamp connection (Petrol motors)
Connect the cable to the amp clamp and the battery cable while the engine
is off.
Locate the high voltage cable of a spark plug in the engine compartment
and close the amp clamp around it making sure you position it as indicated
on the clamp itself. (If you are dealing with a distributorless ignition system
(D.I.S) you must specify their use within the software in order to correctly
read the number of rpm.)
Turn on the engine, then connect the supply clamps of the tool to the
battery.
For this kind of measurement, it is not necessary to turn on the appliance
when the engine is running.
The RC3 enters a synchronisation phase which lasts for about 5 seconds
at the end of which the green led will turn on and the tool is ready to operate
(it can transmit rpm and temperature values).
If the value of the reading is particularly unstable, it is possible to improve
the quality of the measurement by adjusting the sensitivity of the amp
clamps using a special switch.
