To Charge the Lithium-Ion Battery
The BondMaster 600 charges the internal lithium-ion battery while it is connected to the AC
charger/adaptor.
If the BondMaster 600 is to be used with a rechargeable battery, only use Olympus battery
P/N: 600-BAT-L3 [U8051431]. Using any other type of battery might cause an explosion and injury.
The BondMaster 600 charger/adaptor (P/N: EP-MCA-X) is designed to power the BondMaster 600 and
charge the lithium-ion battery only (P/N: 600-BAT-L-3 [U8051431]). Do not attempt to charge any other
batteries, including alkaline batteries in the battery holder (P/N: 600-BAT-AA [U8780295]), or use any
other charger/adaptor. Doing so might cause an explosion or injury.
Do not attempt to power or charge other electronic equipment with the charger/adaptor (P/N: EP-
MCA-X), unless specifically instructed in the manual. Misuse of the charger/adaptor can cause other
batteries and/or instruments to explode, which could lead to serious injury or death.
The lithium-ion battery is not fully charged when the instrument is shipped. You must charge the
battery for two to three hours before using the battery power to operate the instrument.

To Start Up
When power is turned on, the BondMaster 600 starts up
in one of two modes, depending on what is connected to
the instrument.
If no probe is connected, or if a probe that is not a
PowerLink type of probe is connected, the first screen
displayed by the BondMaster 600 software is the
application quick-setup menu. From this menu, choose
a basic application to automatically configure the
appropriate instrument settings.
The BondMaster 600 applications are designed for quick setup of the instrument. However, always
follow published maintenance procedures when inspecting.
To Navigate the Application Menu
Navigating the application menu is designed to be intuitive, and the settings for each application are
designed to permit immediate inspection; little or no additional instrument setup is needed.
1. Rotate the knob to highlight one of the applications.
2. Press the Enter key ( ) to select the application.
OR
Press the Return key ( ) to go back to the BondMaster 600 main screen.
Alternatively, if a PowerLink probe is connected to the instrument before it is turned on, the
BondMaster 600 starts up in the PowerLink recognition screen, and you can proceed as follows:
In the PowerLink recognition screen, load the
program stored in the PowerLink probe by pressing
the A key. This automatically sets up the
instrument.
OR
Bypass the stored program in the probe and gain
access to the instrument’s main inspection screen by
pressing the Return key ( ).
