WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE CL550
To ensure that the CL550 is used safely and to prevent damage to
the device:
Use the CL550 in full respect of the instructions given in this
manual, to avoid damaging its built-in protection.
Do not use the CL550 if the device or its measuring cords are
damaged, or if the device does not seem to be working correctly.
Check that the CL550 is operating correctly by measuring a
known voltage. If there is any doubt - have the equipment
checked.
Never apply a voltage higher than 50V to the measurement
terminals.
Do not use the device in the vicinity of explosive gases, steam or
dust.
Respect all safety instructions concerning the equipment being
tested.

1. GENERAL PRESENTATION
CONNECTING THE DEVICE
The EXXOTEST® CL550 digital controller can be used
in different ways:
- EOBD reader:
In this case, connect the CL550 to the diagnostic port of
the vehicle inspected. This mode uses the device's
EOBD connection (item A).
- Voltmeter, Oscilloscope:
The voltage readings require the use of one or
- Power supply:
If the EOBD reader is not used, the CL550
can be powered directly by the vehicle
battery, using the adapter provided (item C).
- Dialogue with PC:

The USB cable (item D) enabling dialogue with a
computer and the USBCapture software are also

Select the DC Voltmeter mode on the main screen (rotate the centre
button to reach it) and confirm (press the centre button) to be presented
with two possibilities: 1 channel or 2 channels
Use the red wire to measure a single voltage in relation to the battery Earth
(1 channel) or the red and black wires to measure two distinct voltages in
relation to the battery Earth (2 channels).

In 1 channel mode, the measurement is taken by default in
relation to the battery Earth, but it may pertain to the
difference in potential between the two inputs (red in
relation to black), if the black terminal is connected to
another potential than the battery Earth.
5. DC AMMETER FUNCTION
Select the DC Ammeter mode on the main screen (rotate the centre button
to reach it) and confirm (press the centre button) to be presented with two
calibrations (depending on the ammeter clamp used and the intensity
measured): 1 mV / A or 10 mV / A.
The DC Ammeter mode requires the use of an ammeter clamp that
is not supplied with the CL550 device (see options on page 5).

When installation is complete, run the software. When the CL550 is connected
using the USB cable, the following windows appear:
- The magnifying tool to the right of Connected devices, serves to
recognize the device if it was not connected when the software was
opened.
- The serial number of your device appears alongside the product name.
- The parameters in Preview serve to centre and enlarge the preview
window (x2 or x3 zoom).

Important note: for the oscilloscope windows, you also
need to press one of the CL550 buttons!
- Click this icon to refresh the preview.
- Used to save the screen display as an image.
- Continuously refreshes the screen preview of the
CL550
(in this case, it is not possible to save the image).
- Stop continuous reading.
