8 Short-Circuit Jumper The short-circuit Jumper 1
9 L-Shape Bracket
It can be fixed to test fixture main
body to raise stability when test
fixture is under test, further
reducing BNC improper force (The
screws are fixed on the test fixture
main body by default)

INSTALLATION
1. Turn the both fixing handles of BNC terminals from LCR-05A test fixture
toward left side until the gap of BCN external sleeve faces upward.
2. Align the gap with the salient point of BNC terminal from LCR test
instrument and insert it firmly into place. Turn the both fixing handles of
BNC terminals from LCR-05A
test fixture toward right side until the external
sleeve of BCN is fixed stably into place.
Note: When the L-shape bracket is employed, take off the nut from the
ground terminal prior to test fixture installation. Follow the steps
above for proper installation followed by fastening the nut so that the
test fixture can be held tightly when DUT is inserted.
Note: Refer to the pictures below for details of L-shape bracket installation.

MEASUREMENT
WARNING Before measurement, be sure to read the operating
instructions to avoid danger.
1. Set measuring conditions with parameters, and install LCR-05A test fixture.
2. Execute the CORRECTION mode. Set LCR-05A for the FIXTURE
COMPENSATION item in order to execute LCR-05A parameter
compensation, by which the CABLE LENGTH item will be unavailable.
On the other hand, when extension cable is wired with LCR-05A for
measurement, it is required to disable the FIXTURE COMPENSATION
item (OFF) and instead select an appropriate option for CABLE LENGTH
corresponding to the employed cable.
3. Fasten the adjusting screws clockwise to make the Electrodes tightly
close. Execute the OPEN CORRECTION and the OPEN item will change
from OFF to ON.
⑤
4. Loosen the adjusting screws counter-clockwise to make the Electrodes
open. Insert the short-circuit jumper into the Electrodes followed by
fastening the screws. Subtly adjust the Electrodes to clamp the short-
circuit jumper tightly. Execute the SHORT CORRECTION and the SHORT
item will change from OFF to ON.
5. It is suggested to execute HF LOAD calibration when test frequency is
greater than 3MHz. Loosen the adjusting screws counter-clockwise to
make the Electrodes open. Insert the STD-LOAD into the Electrodes
followed by fastening the screws. Subtly adjust the Electrodes to clamp
the STD-LOAD tightly. Execute the HF LOAD CORRECTION and the HF
LOAD item will change from OFF to ON.
⑥
6. Loosen the adjusting screws counter-clockwise to make the Electrodes
open. Insert the DUT into the Electrodes followed by fastening the screws.
Subtly adjust the Electrodes to clamp the DUT tightly and it is now ready
for measurement. The latest calibration status will be shown in the
bottom of the LCD display (item and measuring cable length or test
fixture model).
7. Remove the component from the test fixture.
Note: It is required to place DUT into the test fixture in exactly vertical way
without any tilt, skew or wobble. Do Not fasten the adjusting screws
overly in case of thread stripped
and over compression on DUT. Also, do
Not overly loosen the screws in case of accidental drop out of screws.
