4 Operation

4.1 Connecting the battery
The energy density of the internal lithium poly-
mer battery is high and the battery may overheat
in case of short circuit (e . g . caused by mechani-
cal damage) . For reasons of safety during trans-
port, the battery is not yet connected to the
tester in the factory . In normal use, however, the
battery is not dangerous . To connect the battery:
1) Remove the rubber holster .
2) Open the battery compartment cover (13) .
3) Connect the plug of the battery to the jack
on the PCB (left side) . A beep will confirm
successful connection .
4) Close the battery compartment and replace
the rubber holster .
The tester is now ready for operation . The first
basic settings (e .g . date and time) can be made

( chapter 6 .1 .1) .
4.2 Charging the battery
To charge the internal battery, connect the
power supply unit provided to the jack INPUT
DC 5V (12) and to a mains socket (230 V/50 Hz)
or connect the mini USB port (25) to the USB
connection of a computer or a power supply
unit, for example . The charge indicator
will light up while the battery is charged . During
this process, the tester may be switched off .
When the battery is discharged, the charg-
ing time will be approx . 4 hours via the power
supply unit provided or approx . 8 hours via USB
connection . When the battery has been fully
charged, the charge indicator will go out; dis-
connect the power supply unit from the tester
and from the mains or disconnect the mini USB
plug .
