Let's Start by Measuring a New Battery
To determine if a battery is worn out, measure the data of a new
battery. As a battery wears out, its internal resistance increases to
approximately 1.5 to 2 times (reference value) that of a new one.
Use these values as guidelines when determining the battery wear
judgment values.
Example: Changes in the internal resistance and voltage
due to battery wear
New battery
Internal resistance: 0.5 mΩ
Voltage: 2.0 V
(The above values are examples.)
Battery requiring replacement
1.0 mΩ(twice the value of a
new battery)
1.8 V (90% of the value of a
new battery)
Resistance has doubled...

Basic Usage
1
Connect the test leads to the instrument. (Black) (Red)
Hold at least
1 sec.
2
Turn the instrument power on.
Check the clock settings when using the
instrument for the rst time. (p. 36)
3
Changing the ranges. (p. 39)
4
Turn on the auto-hold function and auto-
memory function.
(and are displayed.)
Auto-hold function: Holds measurement values automatically when they
become stable. (p. 75)
Auto-memory function: Automatically stores measurement values
immediately after they are held. (p. 76)
5
Connect the test leads to the battery.
(Black)(Red)
−+
Data is stored
in internal
memory.
6
Press the key to read out the
measurement values. (p. 69)
Handy Features
Comparator function
With the comparator function, the threshold values can be set to
determine if the battery is worn out. (p. 55)
Setting examples of the battery wear judgment values
New battery
Resistance: 0.5 mΩ
Voltage: 2.0 V
(The above values are examples.)
In use
0.75 mΩ(1.5 times the
value of a new battery)
1.8 V (90% of the value
of a new battery)
Battery requiring
replacement
1.0 mΩ(twice the
value of a new battery)

Downloading measurement values to a computer
By connecting the instrument to a computer with the included USB
cable, the measurement data can be downloaded to the computer.
(p. 83)
Viewing measurement values on a mobile device (only
for BT3554-01)
With the Bluetooth®Communication function, the measurement data
can be viewed on a smart phone or tablet. (p. 84)
