Test Techniques & Applications

TESTING USING DH4 DUPLEX HANDSPIKES

Each handspike is marked with the letter P. This indicates the
potential terminals. These should be the 'inside' contacts when
making a measurement (as shown in the next section 'Testing
Using Duplex Handspikes or Individual Leads').
One of the DH4 handspikes is fitted with two lamps marked L1
and L2 and an extra lead. This lead should be plugged into the
4 mm socket next to the main terminals on the right hand side of
the instrument. These lamps provide information to the operator,
which would otherwise only be available on the instrument
display. The meaning of these lamps is described below.
For example, using the DH4 Duplex Handspikes with the
DLRO 10 in AUTO test mode:
1. Press the TEST button on the instrument.
2. Lamp L1 will illuminate a continuous red to indicate contact
failure. See the instrument panel for details if required.
3. When all four contacts connect, L1 will extinguish.
4. No lamps will show during the test unless contact fails.
5. Lamp L2 will light a continuous green when current flow has
decayed to less that 1 mA to signal end of test.
6. Removing the probes will extinguish the green L2 (end of
test) and Light the red L1 (no contact).
Since your DLRO always ensures good contact before applying
the full test current, there will be no 'splash' to erode the contact
tips. However, should the tips become worn or blunted, they can
be simply replaced by pulling out the worn tips and inserting new
ones.
