VERIFYING THE INSTALLATION

To verify that the Wireless Clamp Meter software and USB driver installed correctly:

1. Insert the mini-plug end of the included USB cable into the USB jack on the right

side of the receiver. Then insert the larger plug on the other end of the cable into
a USB port on your computer.

2. Power on the transmitter and receiver.

3. Make sure that the jaws of the transmitter clamp are closed and not enclosing a

current-carrying conductor.

4. On the transmitter, set the function switch to the

position and press the

TX ON button.

5. Note that the transmitter’s display is reading stray voltages of less than 1V.

Confirm that the receiver’s display is tracking these measurements.

6. Note that the software installation added a Wireless Clamp Meter icon (depicting

a computer screen) to your computer’s Start button. Left-click it to open the
Wireless Clamp Meter application.

7. Left-click the “Connect” icon (depicting two computers) below the Help button

on the Wireless Clamp Meter screen.

8. Left-click the

► button at the right of the Connect icon. The software’s main

display will begin showing—in three separate windows, in three different
forms—the measurement data currently being captured by the transmitter,
relayed wirelessly to the receiver, and sent to the computer via the USB cable.
