1. Features
1. The Battery Tester is designed for measuring the internal impedance
and open circuit voltage of the secondary battery including Nickel-metal
hydride battery ( NiMH),Nickel-cadmium battery(NiCd),Lithium-ion
battery(Li-ion), Alkaline battery and lead-Acid battery.
2. AC four-terminal method to measure the internal impedance by
eliminating lead impedance and contact impedance to get the accurate
results.
3. Multi-display to show the internal impedance, voltage and clock of the
battery simultaneously.
4. It has 99 sets of composite comparator function, which can be set at
impedance and voltage values to get the reliable detection of battery
deterioration.
5. Pin type leads, which can easily contact the battery electrodes supplied
as standard to get more accurate 4-terminal measurement.

5. Safety Precaution
CAUTION
Take extreme care for the following conditions while
measuring.
1. Measuring voltage over 20V as it may cause human body electricity
conduction.
2. Do not measure voltage, current under humid or wet environment. If any
unusual condition of test leads’ send
3. (Metal part). And attachment of the meter, such as breakage, deformation,
fracture, foreign substance, No display, etc., do not conduct any measuring.
4. Do not contact any exposed metal (conductive) parts, such as end of test
lead, jack, fixing object, circuit etc,.
5. Keep you insulated from the object waiting for measuring.
6. Do not operate the meter under the environment with explosive gas

(material), combustible gas (material) steam or filled with dust.
7. In order to avoid reading incorrect data, you have to replace the batteries
immediately when the symbol BAT appears on the LCD.
8. In order to avoid the damage caused by contamination and static electricity,
do not touch the circuit board before you take any adequate action.

CAUTION
 Do not attempt to measure DC voltage exceeding
40V。Do not attempt to measure AC voltages, This
could result in jury or damage to the unit
 Do not attempt to measure the voltage of a generator.
This would result in an AC voltage being applied to the
voltage generating output terminals, which is
dangerous.
 After measuring a high voltage battery, before
continuing to measure a low voltage battery first short
the measurement leads together. This will discharge
the DC-elimination capacitor which is connected
across the leads. Otherwise an excess voltage may be
applied to the low voltage battery, which is dangerous.
1. Connect the following test leads to the meter:
Red test lead to SOURCE〝＋〞jack
Black test lead to SOURCE〝－〞jack.
Yellow test lead to SENSE〝＋〞jack
Blue test lead to SENSE〝－〞jack.
Temperature plug to TEMP SENSOR (TM-6002).
2. Press power key turn on the meter。
3. Press Ω-RANGE key to select desired impedance ranges。
4. Press V-RANGE key to select desired voltage ranges。
5. The zero adjustment function is to zero range of impedance. The reading
during zero adjustment will be taken as zero and will be used to calibrate
subsequent measurements.
6. (1).Short the red and black test leads probe four (4) terminals.
7. Press Zero adjustment key for 2 seconds to start the zero
adjustment. A flashing “0 ADJ” appears on the screen; when the tester
reads a steady value of the resistance lower than 1000; then the screen
