Install the Batteries

Your LCR meter is powered by a single 9 V alkaline battery

(included with the shipment).

1Turn the LCR meter OFF and remove

the test leads from the terminals.

2Lift the tilt stand and loosen the

screw with a suitable Phillips

screwdriver.

3Remove the battery cover and

observe the polarity markings.

4Insert the battery and replace the

battery cover and screw.

Turn On the LCR Meter

To power ON your LCR meter, press the power-on button once.

Power-on button

WARNING To avoid damage to the device, do not exceed the input

limit. Do not apply voltage to the input terminals.

Discharge the capacitor before testing.

NOTE Your LCR meter is capable of remote data logging. To use this

feature, you will need an IR-USB cable (U5481A, purchased

separately) and the Agilent GUI Data Logger Software (down-

loadable from www.agilent.com/find/hhTechLib).

AVERTISSEMENT

Ne dépassez pas les limites d’entrée : vous risqueriez

d’endommager l’appareil. N'appliquez pas de tension aux

bornes d'entrée. Déchargez le condensateur avant les tests.

NOTE

Le mesureur LCR vous permet de journaliser des données à

distance. L'utilisation de cette fonctionnalité nécessite un câble

IR-USB (U5481A, vendu séparément) et le logiciel de

journalisation Agilent GUI Data Logger Software (téléchargeable

depuis le site www.agilent.com/find/hhTechLib).
