Usage Notes
Usage Notes
Follow these precautions to ensure safe operation and to obtain the full benets of the various
functions. Ensure that your use of the instrument falls within the specications not only of the
instrument itself, but also of any accessories, options and other equipment being used.
Before using the instrument for the rst time
Upon delivery, check that the main unit and all necessary accessories are included in the package.
Furthermore, check that the main unit, accessories, panel switches, and terminals are all
functioning normally and that none is faulty or damaged.
WARNING
If any item is faulty or damaged, do not use the instrument in its present state.
Contact your authorized Hioki distributor or reseller.
Inspection
Before using the instrument each time, verify that it operates normally to ensure that there is no
damage.
If you nd any damage, contact your authorized Hioki distributor or reseller.
WARNING
•Tape switches are installed around the moving parts of the model Z5016 WPT
Testing Platform so that any unsafe contact is detected and the testing platform
is stopped. In addition, EMERGENCY STOP buttons are installed on the front
side and the pendant unit of the model Z5017 PLC Rack. Prior to using this
instrument, check the following. If the operation of the instrument is different
from the description below, turn off the main breaker on the front side of the
Z5017 PLC Rack and contact your authorized Hioki distributor or reseller.
1. The [EMERGENCY STOP] indicator lights up when something comes in
contact with the tape switches and the EMERGENCY STOP button is
pressed.
2. When the [READY] button is pressed when the [EMERGENCY STOP] indicator
lit, the instrument does not start up.
•Always turn off the main breaker before lubricating the axis guide and ball
screw units.
Operating environment
WARNING
Installing the instrument in inappropriate locations may cause a malfunction of
instrument or may give rise to an accident. Avoid the following locations:
•Exposed to direct sunlight or high temperature
•Exposed to corrosive or combustible gases
•Susceptible to vibration
•Exposed to water, oil, chemicals, or solvents
•Exposed to high humidity or condensation
•Exposed to high quantities of dust particles

Usage Notes
Wire material
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, use the recommended wire type to connect to the current
input terminals, or otherwise ensure that the wire used has sufcient current
handling capacity and insulation.
Connection of the power input terminals and external I/O terminals
WARNING
•Connect wires to the power input terminals and external I/O terminals
securely. If a terminal is loose, the contact resistance will increase, resulting in
overheating, equipment burnout, re, or malfunction.
•To avoid electric shock or damage to the instrument, always observe the
following precautions when connecting to the power input terminals or external
I/O terminals.
•Always turn off the power to the instrument and to any devices to be
connected before making connections.
•Be careful to avoid exceeding the ratings of the power input terminals and
external I/O terminals.
•During operation, a wire becoming dislocated and contacting another
conductive object can be serious hazard. Use screws to secure for the
connection to the power input terminals and external I/O terminals.
•Ensure that instruments and systems to be connected to the power input
terminals and external I/O terminals are properly isolated.

7
Usage Notes
Connection of the USB terminal
CAUTION
•To avoid equipment failure, do not disconnect the USB cable while communications
are in progress.
•Use a common ground for both the instrument and the computer. Using different
ground circuits will result in a potential difference between the instrumentʼs ground
and the computerʼs ground. If the USB cable is connected while such a potential
difference exists, it may result in equipment malfunction or failure.
Earth bar (protective conductor terminal)
WARNING
Observe the following to avoid electric shock.
•Connect the protective conductor terminal to earth (earth ground) before
making any other connections.
•Be sure to connect the protective conductor to earth (earth ground).
Handling the Z5018 Switch Box
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the measurement terminal of the LCR meter, be sure to release the
locking mechanism, and grip the head of the BNC connector (not the cord) of Model
Z5018, and pull it out.
Turning on the power
WARNING
Before turning the instrument on, make sure the supply voltage matches that
indicated on its power connector. Connection to an improper supply voltage may
damage the instrument and present an electrical hazard.

Model TS2400 WPT Test System is an automatic measurement system
for reproducible data required for wireless power transmission (WPT)
evaluation.
One software program can control the setting of various measuring
instruments, positioning of power transmission and reception workpieces,
and data collection.
Multiple points can be measured in a short
period of time.
Various graph display and calculation
functions
Combining the above features, WPT devices can be
analyzed in detail and the evaluation man-hours can be
reduced signicantly.
1.2 Features
 Automatic positioning of power transmission and reception workpieces
The workpiece position can be automatically set using the 3-axis (X, Y, and Z) control on the model
Z5016 WPT Testing Platform.
It improves the repeatability of evaluation and can reduce man-hours.
 Automatic measurement data collection
The measurement data of the connected measuring instrument can be automatically collected
using the timing or period specied by the model SF2400 WPT Testing Software.
(Other settings required for measurement can also be set in the SF2400.)
 Relative graph display of measurement data
The collected measurement data and workpiece position correlation can be displayed in a graphical
format. The parameters to be displayed can be arbitrarily set.
 User-dened calculation function
In addition to the standard calculation items, any calculation can be dened as required.
The dened parameters can be handled in the same way as for other parameters in the model
SF2400 WPT Testing Software.
 Compatible with various measuring instruments (Hioki) as the standard specication
The following Hioki measuring instruments that are required for WPT evaluation are supported as
the standard specication.
