a. Choose the supplied Battery Clip Adapter or the #9031 Bench
Test/Voltage Probe Adapter.
b. Connect in line with the PULSAR ™ and connect to the circuit.
c. Select Manual Mode (See Section 7)
d. Select the desired amperage limit for the equipment to be tested.
e. Send power while viewing the current draw. This allows you to
inspect and test your equipment while preventing damage and
avoiding guesswork. All functions such as Current Limiting, Peak
Hold and Amperage Reading works with the Battery Clip and
Bench Test/Voltage Probe Adapters.
NOTE: The #9031 Bench Test/ Voltage Probe Adapter can be used
in applications up to 20 AMP.
17. BY-PASSING RELAYS WITH THE PULSAR ™ :
The PULSAR ™ may be connected in place of an automotive relay. In this
situation, the PULSAR ™ is used to send power into the relay circuit
limited to the users setting. When performing in Manual mode, the
Manual push button is used to send power into the circuit while viewing
current draw. In this operation, the user verifies proper operation of the
power supplied into the circuit and the circuit after the relay. The user
confirms whether or not the problem is caused by the relay, circuit, or
relay wiring configuration
.
a. Select Manual or Automatic Mode.
b. Choose the appropriate adapter, i.e. Probe or Maxi Adapter.
c. Remove the relay from the circuit to be tested.
d. Install the adapter in place of the relay.
e. Set the amperage limit and begin sending power.
NOTE TO USER: When bypassing a relay or fuse, you must first
verify the proper amperage for the circuit to be tested. Do not
exceed the manufacturer specifications for amperage draw. The
PULSAR
™ manufacturer and distributor are not liable for damage
occurring to components and circuits being tested by the
PULSAR
™ . It is up to the user to ensure the tool is used properly.
18. USING THE VOLTAGE PROBE
Connect the voltage probe to the PULSAR ™ with the two pin connector.
Connect the alligator clip to the positive terminal of a 12 Volt battery, or
directly to a 12 Volt circuit. Set the current limit and engage the
PULSAR
™ . BE CAREFUL NOT TO TOUCH THE PROBE TO GROUND.
Touch the probe needle end to the desired circuit. The probe will apply
power up to the limit set on the PULSAR
™ . If an over current is found,
the PULSAR ™ automatically removes power until the source of the
overload is removed, or the probe needle is no longer touching the
circuit. The probe should not be used to supply more than 12 Amps (12
Volts DC) of constant current.
