Concerning the electromagnetic fields transmitting instruments:
This instrument is an electromagnetic fields transmitter. Its use and its access are
regulated.
When the instrument is not in transmitting mode, no electromagnetic field is produce, so
there is no exposure risk during this period. It is appropriate to limit the access
(exposures areas) during emission period.
Exposures areas are necessaries around the antenna. There are four areas:
¾ Area A: Prohibited access, unless
specific arrangement,
¾ Area B: Strictly limited access,
¾ Area C: Limited access,
¾ Area D: Free access.

Standards and references:
In all the cases, the installation must be done with regards to the practice code and
being in agreement with the French standard AFNOR UTE C99-111 (October 2002).
Security:
In the menu of the instrument, there is a security mode to avoid any start cycle by the
start key located on the front panel. It is appropriate to have this option validated.
We would like to bring to your attention that ATEQ will not be held
responsible for any accident connected to the improper use of this
instrument, to the work bench or to the lack of compliance with safety
rules.

Awakening transmission frequency is: 125 kHz (LF).
Reception frequencies are: 433 MHz or 315 MHz (RF).
RF awakening transmission frequencies and other reception frequencies are also
available upon request.
2.2. TYPE OF SENSORS
This instrument is designed and can be used for the measurement of any requested
sensors.

2.3.1. Valve type
Set the type of sensor the instrument is going to test.
The different sensor types depend of the manufacturer.
)Set this parameter using the method described in § 2.3.
2.3.2. Learn mode (Trigger activation)
Each sensor has different mode or status. Set the test mode.
The different trigger types are in function of the sensor depending of the manufacturer.
)Set this parameter using the method described in § 2.3.
2.3.3. Frequency
Set the receiving frequency among: 315 MHz, 433.92 MHz and 434.42 MHz.
)Set this parameter using the method described in § 2.3.
2.3.4. Time out
Time allow to the sensor to answer. Over this time, if the device has not receiving any
frame, the message "NO RESPONSE" is displayed.
)Set this parameter using the method described in § 2.3.
2.3.5. Power
Set the emitting power. All sensors don’t have the same sensitivity so the emitting
power can be adjust. The power can also be adjust in order to limit the emission range
of the instrument. Adjustment: 0 % to 100 %, step 1 %.
)Set this parameter using the method described in § 2.3.
2.3.6. LF output
This mode selects one or several transmitting antennas and her transmitting mode. The
various modes are: A + B the two antennas are transmitting together, A or B antenna
only, A<>B antennas A and B alternatively (the A1, A2, B1 et B2 modes are not
available in this version.
The transmitting power is modulated by the H letter: example A + B : H. "H" = full power
and "h" half power.
The power is adjusted in the "Power" parameter.
Example: if the configured power is 60% then, if "H" is selected we will transmit with
60% power else, if "h" is selected we will have 30% power.

2.1.3. 2) Pressure
This function is used to display and test the pressure parameter sent by the sensor
(internal wheel pressure) so this parameter had to be between the high and low
pressure parameters.
)Select the option and enter settings if necessary.
2.1.3. 3) Temperature

2.1.3. 6) Program sequencing
This function enables several tests to be carried out by the instrument one after the
other following sequencing conditions.
The sequencing order can be edited; the choice of the following program is defined in
the parameters. By default the programs are sequenced according to their original
number P+1 which can be modify. This function is not operative in the SNIFFING mode
(infinite test time).
When an active program is sequenced with another

2.1.3. 7) Valve codes
The instrument has eight programmable electrical outputs (24V DC/100 mA maximum)
on the J1 valve code board.
The “valve code” outputs reserved to a pneumatic function are identified by the
associated function’s name: Stamping, automatic connector, etc… When they are “free”
and available to the operator they are called: internal or external with their position
number.

This function has for main objective to save the test parameters from the RAM memory
of the instrument to its flash memory.
When this function is not validated, each time the key switch is turned from the

IN FLASH. The save operation can be carried out manually in the
SERVICE PARAMETERS menu.
When the AUTOMATIC SAVE function is confirmed with a YES, the parameters are

2.8.1. Input 7 (IN7)
This menu is used to configure programmable input 7 on connector J3 on the 16-
program input/output board.
Refer to Chapter 1, paragraph 2.1.5 "Connector J3 (binary Inputs/Outputs)
programmable input".
The various functions which can be set on input 7 are: "Program selection", "Current".
These functions represent all the special cycles available.
2.8.2. Output
Two output modes are available: STANDARD mode and COMPACT mode.
They enable the configuration of the outputs available in two different ways.
For the wiring of the outputs, please refer to chapter 1 paragraph 2.1.3. J3 connector

parameters saving could be necessary. In this case
three solutions appear:

1) Restore the saved parameters (current parameters will be lost).
2) Save the current parameters in the memory (the parameters already in the memory
will be lost).
3) Do nothing and work with the current parameters.

value), .
9 resetting of the results memory,
9 printing of the results (number of good parts, number of bad parts)
6. LANGUAGE MENU
