Quick Start
This section is for users who want to start using the test tool immediately with
minimal instruction. For suggestions on additional reading that may be helpful to
you, see “Using this Manual” in Chapter 1.
Powering the Test Tool
Before powering the test tool or smart remote with the NiCad battery pack, charge
the battery for about 3 hours. To charge the battery, connect the ac adapter/charger
to the test tool or smart remote and to ac line power. You can operate the unit on
ac power while the battery charges. A fully-charged battery typically lasts 10-12
hours. See “Battery Status” on page 2-31 for information on battery status
messages.
Note
The ac adapter/charger will not power the test tool when the battery
pack is removed.
The standard remote unit is powered by a 9V alkaline battery. The test tool
monitors the remote unit and alerts you when the battery voltage is low.
Using the Menus
The test tool’s setup configuration, test selections, and test results are presented in
a menu system. Table 2-2 shows the keys used to select items and move between
screens in the menu system.
