Analysing Components
The Peak Atlas SCR is designed to analyse discrete, unconnected, unpowered
components. This ensures that external connections don’t influence the
measured parameters. The three test probes can be connected to the component
any way round.
The Atlas SCR will start component analysis when the on/test button is
pressed.
The analysis typically takes less than a second to complete, after which the
results of the analysis are displayed. Information is displayed a “page” at a
time, each page can be displayed by briefly pressing the scroll/off button.
If the Atlas SCR cannot recognise the component connected to the test probes,
or the component under test is outside the specifications covered by this
instrument, the following message will
be displayed:
Note:
The arrow symbol on the display indicates that more pages are
available to be viewed.
