Thin-Flexi Current Probe

The Thin-Flexi Current Probe works on the Rogowski coil (R-coil) principle that is a toroid of wire used to measure an alternating current through a wire encircled by the toroid. See Figure 3.
Figure 3. R-Coil Operation Principle
The R-coil has advantages over other types of current transformers:
It is not a closed loop. The second terminal is passed back through the center of the toroid core (commonly a plastic or rubber tube) and connected along the first terminal. This allows the coil to be open-ended, flexible, and able to be wrapped around a live conductor without disturbing it.
It has an air core rather than an iron core. It has a low inductance and can respond to fast-changing currents.
Because it has no iron core to saturate, it is highly linear even when subjected to large currents, such as those used in electric power transmission or pulsed-power applications.
A correctly formed R-coil, with equally spaced windings, is largely immune to electromagnetic interference.

Before You Start
Use the color clips for easy identification of the four current probes. Apply the clips that are appropriate for your local wiring codes on both ends of the current probe cable. See Figure 4.
Figure 4. Test Leads with Color Coding

Kensington Lock

A Kensington Security Slot (also called a K-Slot or Kensington lock) is part of a built-in anti-theft system. It is a small, metal-reinforced, oval hole found on the right side of the Logger (see item 6 in Table 4). It is used for attaching a lock-and-cable apparatus. The lock is secured in place with a key or combination lock attached to a plastic-cover metal cable. The end of the cable has a small loop that allows the cable to be looped around a permanent object, such as a cabinet door, to secure it in place. This lock is available from most electronics and computer suppliers.

Storage

Storage
When not in use, keep the Logger in the protective storage bag/case. The bag/case has sufficient space for the Logger and all the accessories.
If the Logger is stored for an extended period of time or is not in use for a long time, you should charge the battery at least once every six months.

Tilt Stand

The power supply includes a tilt stand. When used, the tilt stand positions the display at a good angle for use on a tabletop surface. To use, attach the power supply to the Logger and open the tilt stand.

Power Supply

The Logger includes a removable power supply, see Figure 5. The power supply is either attached to the Logger or used externally with a dc power cable. The configuration with the externally connected power supply is preferred in locations where the Logger with the power supply attached is too big to fit in a cabinet.
When the power supply is connected with the Logger and connected to line power, it:
converts line power to dc power and is used directly by the Logger
automatically turns on the Logger and continuously powers the Logger from the external source (after initial power on, the power button turns on and turns off the Logger)
recharges the battery
The power cord/measurement line cover slides to select the input source.
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury, do not use the power supply if the mains power cable/measurement line slide-cover is missing.

Battery Operation

Caution
To prevent damage to the Product:
Do not leave batteries unused for extended periods of time, either in the product or in storage.
When a battery has not been used for six months, check the charge status and charge the battery as appropriate.
Clean battery packs and contacts with a clean, dry cloth.
Battery packs must be charged before use.
After extended storage, it can be necessary to charge and discharge a battery pack to obtain maximum performance.
Dispose of the batteries properly.
The Logger also operates on an internal rechargeable Lithium-ion battery. After you unpack and inspect the Logger, fully charge the battery before first use. Afterwards, charge the battery when the battery icon on the screen indicates that power is low. The battery automatically charges when the Logger is connected to the mains power. The Logger continues to charge when turned off and connected to mains power.
Note
The battery charge is faster when the Logger is turned off.
To charge the battery:
1.
Connect the mains cord to the ac input socket on the power supply.
2.
Fit the power supply to the Logger or use the dc power cord to connect the power supply to the Logger.
3.
Connect to mains power.
Note
Li-ion batteries keep a charge longer if stored at room temperature.
The clock resets when the battery is completely discharged.
When the Logger shuts off because of low battery, enough battery capacity is available to back up the real­time clock for up to 2 months.
