Using your Atlas LCR
Normal Use
The Atlas LCR performs its component analysis before
the results are displayed. Therefore, once the analysis has
completed, the probes can be disconnected from the component.
Analysis itself only takes a few seconds and you can choose to
start the analysis after a 5 second delay or immediately.
Delayed Analysis
: If you press the on-
test button the unit will power-up (if it's
not already on!) and then delay for 5
seconds
before
analysis
of
your
component starts.
This can be particularly useful if you need time to use both hands to apply the
test probes to the component while the analysis takes place.
Instant Analysis
: You can skip the 5
second delay by pressing the on-test
button again. The analysis will then start
immediately.
Scrolling through the results
: Results are displayed a screen at a time, simply
press the scroll-off button to see each screen when you're ready.
If you reach the last screen of results, pressing scroll-off will take you to the
first results screen again. Remember, you can take your time; and you don't
need to keep the component connected.
Starting again
: The component analysis can be started again at any time by
pressing on-test.
Switching off
: The unit will automatically switch off after about 20 seconds
following the last keypress. If you wish, you may manually switch off by
holding down the scroll-off button for about 1 second.
