OPERATION
The AC-15 Infrared Printer can be operated inside the carrying case or
out as long as the AC adapter is plugged in. When inside the case, note
the slots in the foam molding. These are designed to allow for receiv-
ing the signal from any Auto Meter handheld tester. Be sure there is no
obstruction that will block the I/R receiver. When the need arises as in
some eet cases take the printer to the location and use the adapter
included. It can be plugged into any available cigarette lighter socket.
1. Plug the AC adapter in and the
Red Led will light up.
2. Point the I/R receiver
that is next to the Red
LED, in the direction
of the vehicle or tester
being used.
3. Perform the test
using your Auto
Meter hand-held
tester.
4. When the test is complete,
point the tester in the general direction of the
AC-15 Infrared Printer. Press the print key on the
tester panel. The test number and results indi-
cated on the tester LCD will print
out on the AC-15 printer.
5. If the red LED on the printer
ashes, a paper jam is indi-
cated. Correct the problem
then press the “FEED”
button to reset.
The AC-15 Infrared
Printer can be oper-
ated from up to 40 ft.
away.
