Chapter 3 Use the Product Introduction This chapter provides information about how to use the Product. The Product provides two modes for different measurement purposes: Meter mode and Sequence mode. Meter mode lets you perform easy and fast measurements and save the measurement readings and timestamp to the Product memory. In this mode, the Product measures battery internal resistance and voltage, dc voltage, ac voltage, and ripple voltage. Sequence mode is designed for battery maintenance personnel who work between multiple test sites. In this mode, you can create a profile for each battery string to be tested. The profile specifies information such as user-defined test site, device type, serial number, battery quantity, and battery model. During the test, all test data, including battery resistance, voltage, and ripple voltage is stored in the profile. After a battery string test is completed, you can create a new profile for the next battery string or test site. You can also recall or delete the test data in a history profile. With the integrated profile management and the analysis software on the PC, you can analyze the trend of maintenance data and create reports in an efficient way. For example, you can create a comprehensive test and maintenance report for a test site or analyze the resistance changes of one battery string over time. Switch Between Meter Mode and Sequence Mode Each time you power on the Product, it is in Meter mode by default. METER MODE shows on the upper-left corner of the display. To switch to Sequence mode: 1. Push M. The Enter SEQUENCE mode? screen shows. 2. Push the Continue, New, or Load softkey and make other required selections to enter the measurement screen of Sequence mode. Note When you first enter SEQUENCE mode, push the New softkey to create a new profile. 3-1 MyFlukeStore Shop for Fluke products online at: www. .com 1.888.610.7664

Introduction
This chapter provides information about how to use the Product. The Product provides
two modes for different measurement purposes: Meter mode and Sequence mode.
Meter mode lets you perform easy and fast measurements and save the measurement
readings and timestamp to the Product memory. In this mode, the Product measures
battery internal resistance and voltage, dc voltage, ac voltage, and ripple voltage.
Sequence mode is designed for battery maintenance personnel who work between
multiple test sites. In this mode, you can create a profile for each battery string to be
tested. The profile specifies information such as user-defined test site, device type, serial
number, battery quantity, and battery model. During the test, all test data, including
battery resistance, voltage, and ripple voltage is stored in the profile. After a battery
string test is completed, you can create a new profile for the next battery string or test
site. You can also recall or delete the test data in a history profile.
With the integrated profile management and the analysis software on the PC, you can
analyze the trend of maintenance data and create reports in an efficient way. For
example, you can create a comprehensive test and maintenance report for a test site or
analyze the resistance changes of one battery string over time.
Switch Between Meter Mode and Sequence Mode
Each time you power on the Product, it is in Meter mode by default.
METER MODE
shows on the upper-left corner of the display.
To switch to Sequence mode:
1. Push

Note
When you first enter SEQUENCE mode, push the New softkey to
