安全情報

Always observe the following safety precautions when using the PowerScan PS100:

  • 適切な保護メガネを着用してください。
  • Do not use the tool if the cable or unit is damaged.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when working on vehicles.
  • エンジンの可動部品との接触を避けてください。
  • Do not connect the tool to voltages exceeding 30 volts.
  • The tool is equipped with a circuit breaker for overload protection. If the circuit breaker trips, reset it before continuing.

セットアップと接続

To begin using the PowerScan PS100:

  1. Connect the red battery clip to the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle's battery.
  2. Connect the black battery clip to the negative (-) terminal of the vehicle's battery or a good chassis ground.
  3. The tool will power on automatically once connected.
  4. Before testing any circuit or component, perform a quick self-check by flipping the power switch forward and backward. The LED lights and tone should respond, indicating proper operation.

動作モード

The PowerScan PS100 features four primary operating modes, accessible by pressing the モードボタン:

  • DCVol。tage: DCボリュームを表示しますtage with a resolution of 0.1 volts.
  • ACVol。tage: 最大ボリュームを表示tage、最小ボリュームtage, and duty cycle of an AC signal.
  • 抵抗: Measures the resistance between the probe tip and the auxiliary ground lead.
  • Tone On/Off: Activates or deactivates an audible tone for test results. This is useful in dark environments.

コンポーネントのアクティベーション

The PowerScan PS100 can activate components by supplying positive or negative voltage directly to them. This allows for testing components like lights, motors, wipers, radiator fans, and relays both on and off the vehicle.

  • To activate a component, connect the probe tip to the component's terminal.
  • を押す 電源スイッチ プラスのボラティリティのフォワードtage or backward for negative voltage.
  • Observe the component's operation to determine its condition.

Polarity and Circuit Indication

The tool provides visual and audible indications for circuit polarity:

  • When the probe tip contacts a positive circuit赤色LED illuminates, and a high-pitched tone sounds.
  • When the probe tip contacts a negative circuit (ground), the 緑色LED illuminates, and a low-pitched tone sounds.
  • If the circuit is 開ける, neither LED will light.

Short Circuit Detection and Protection

The PowerScan PS100 is designed to help locate short circuits and includes built-in protection:

  • When a short circuit is detected, the tool's internal circuit breaker will trip to protect the device and the vehicle's electrical system.
  • To reset the circuit breaker, press the サーキットブレーカーのリセット ボタン。
  • Use the tool to trace the short circuit by following the change in voltage readings or LED indications.
