• Time-limited discharge (11): Set a maximum discharge time (up to 99 hours, 59 minutes). Display shows '--:--' for unlimited, or '00:03' for 3 minutes.

5. Pangropéa

To ensure the longevity and accurate performance of your MDL150 Electronic Load Tester, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Kipas pendingin: The device includes a cooling fan (9) that operates automatically when the internal temperature reaches ≥40℃ or the current exceeds 3A. Ensure the fan vents are not obstructed to allow for proper airflow.
• beberesih: Keep the device clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the casing atawa layar.
• Panyimpenan: Simpen alat ieu di tempat anu garing sareng tiis, jauh tina sinar panonpoé langsung sareng suhu anu ekstrim.

6. Cara ngungkulan

This section provides guidance on common issues and error indicators you might encounter.

6.1 Status Indicators (17)

The device displays various status messages to indicate its current state or any triggered protections:

• EUREUN: Program not running.
• DSG: Currently executing discharge program.
• TUNGTUNG: Program execution completed.
• OPP: Power over limit protection, triggering power greater than OPP.
• OCP: Current over limit protection, triggering current greater than OCP.
• OVP: Voltage over limit protection, triggering voltage greater than OVP.
• OTPs: Overheat protection, triggering internal temperature > 75℃.

6.2 Tips ngungkulan Umum

• Alat teu hurung: Check the DC12V 1A power adapter connection and ensure the power switch (4) is ON.
• No readings/Incorrect readings: Verify that the load is correctly connected to the 6P test access terminal (6) and that the wiring mode is appropriate (4-wire or 2-wire). Ensure no-load voltage and current are cleared if necessary (Menu option 3).
• Protection triggered: If OPP, OCP, OVP, or OTP is displayed, check your load parameters against the set protection limits. Reduce the load or adjust protection settings if appropriate. Allow the device to cool down if OTP is active.
• Interface issues: If the display is unclear or unresponsive, try adjusting the screen brightness (Menu option 6). If issues persist, consider restoring factory settings (Menu option 8).
