Basic function operation
4.1 Measurement conditions and parameters
4.1.1 Function
Cp-D is displayed at the FUNC, as shown in figure 4-1. The first character “C”
is the main parameter, represents capacitance measurement; the second
character “p” represents parallel equivalent model; the last character “D” is
the secondary parameter, represents loss factor.
4.1.1.1 Main parameter
The main parameters include AUTO, L (inductance), C (capacitance), R
(resistance) and Z (impedance).
When selecting AUTO, the instrument will automatically judge whether the
measurement is L, C or R according to the measured data. In this case, the
secondary parameter cannot be set and the fixed combination is R-X, C-D and
L-Q. The equivalent model is automatically switched according to the
measurement data.
In the measurement page, Press , key to switch to the next main
parameter(AUTO、R、C、L、Z), Loop switching.
4.1.1.2 Equivalent model
Equivalent models include s (series) and p (parallel).
The actual inductance, capacitance and resistance are not ideal pure reactance
or resistance parts.
They are usually presented as a composite impedance element. Herein, the part
to be measured is equivalent to a simple series or parallel model of two
elements, then performs measuring and calculating.
Note: generally, the series equivalent model is used for low impedance
parts and the parallel equivalent model is used for high impedance parts.
In the measurement page, Press key to switch the equivalent model(s、p).
4.1.1.3 Secondary parameter
The secondary parameters include X (reactance), D (loss factor), Q (quality
factor), θ (impedance Angle), and ESR (equivalent series resistance).

6.2 Sorting mechanism
The machine provides five levels (BIN:1, BIN:2, BIN:3, BIN:AUX, BIN:OUT) for
sorting. The sorting process is shown in figure 6-2. P is the main parameter
of the measurement result, Pn_L is the low limit of the main parameter of n
level (n=1,2,3), Pn_H is the high limit of the main parameter of n level
(n=1,2,3), 2nd is the measurement result of the secondary parameter, 2nd_L is
the low limit of the secondary parameter, and 2nd_H is the high limit of the
secondary parameter.
When the main parameter of the measurement results meets the first level and
the secondary parameter passes, the sorting result is BIN:1.
When the measurement results show that the main parameter does not meet the
first level, but the second level, and the secondary parameter passes, the
sorting results are BIN:2.
When the measured results show that the main parameters do not meet the first
and second levels, but meet the third level, and the secondary parameters
passes, the sorting results are BIN:3.
When the main parameters of measurement results do not meet the first, second
and third levels, the sorting results are BIN:OUT.
When the main parameters of the measured results meet the first, second or
third levels, and the secondary parameters does not pass, the sorting result
is BIN:AUX.
When the comparator is opened, the sorting results are displayed on the
measurement page, as shown in figure 6-3. At the same time, the sorting
results are output through the Handler interface.If the result of
sorting is BIN:1, BIN:2, BIN:3, BIN:AUX file, the beep alert will prompt
according to the PASS tone setting in the system setting. If the sorting
result is BIN:OUT, a beep alert will prompt according to the FAIL tone setting
in the system Settings.
List scan
The list scan function is mainly used to test the same part at different
frequencies.
7.1 Parameter setting and operation
Step 1: Enter the LIST SCAN page.
In the LCR page, move the cursor to LIST item with the left and right keys, as
shown in figure 7-1.
Press the up and down keys to enter the LIST SCAN page, as shown in figure
7-2.
Note: When the FUNC item is AUTO, the LIST SCAN page cannot be
entered.Step 2: Set the scan mode.
On the LIST SCAN page, move the cursor to “Mode” item with the left and right
keys, and switch modes by the up and down keys.
There are two modes, Seq and Step.
With the setting Seq, each start signal will automatically complete all
measurement and comparison of sequence number 1-7.
With the setting Step, each start signal completes the measurement and
comparison of the current sequence number. The current sequence number
increased by 1 (if the current sequence number is 7, the sequence serial
number becomes 1).
Step 3: Set parameters.
The parameters that can be set for each sequence number include frequency,
high limit and low limit.
Setting of Low and High limits: As shown in figure 7-3, move the cursor to the
high or low limit field to be set and press the key to enter input state.
Select the numeric digit to be changed by left and right keys, and the
selected digit will be displayed in reverse. Change the value of the digit by
up and down keys (Up key value increases by 1, down key value decreases by 1).
Press the key to exit after setting.
In the non-input state, press the up and down key to disable the field and
display as “——–“.
The frequency setting is consistent with the frequency setting of the
measurement page. In the non-input state,a disable option is added to the
frequency options and displayed as “——-”. Step 4: Start scan.
It can be started by the external signal line (trigger signal of Handler) or
by pressing the key In this case, the internal trigger source(INT) is used,
regardless of the TRIG source setting in SYSTEM SET page.
After each measurement and comparison, the measurement value and comparison
result are displayed on the right side of the current sequence number row, as
shown in Figure 7-4.
The comparison result is I, the measured value is within the low and high
limits.
The comparison result is H, the measured value is higher than the high limit.
The comparison result is L, the measured value is lower than the low limit.
Note: when the frequency field is set to disable option, the current sequence
number will be skipped directly. If both the high and low limits are in the
disable state, there is no comparison result, which is displayed as “–“.
Step 5: Output the scanning result in the Handler interface.
The list scan results can be output through the Handler. The comparison
results of sequence
number 1, 2, 3 and 7 can be directly output through the Handler. At the same
time, the overall scan results of sequence number 1-7 can also be output
through the Handler. At this time, as long as comparison results of H and L
appear in sequence number 1-7, it will be judged as the overall unqualified.
Clear all scan results each time the measurement of sequence number 1 is
started. See 9.3 Handler interface for specific output signals and pins.
The list scan result can also give the beep prompt, the comparison result is
I, and the beep prompt is based on the PASS tone setting; the comparison
result is H, L, the beep prompt is based on the FAIL tone setting. The overall
scan result are given in Seq mode, and the comparison results of current
sequence numbers are given in Step mode.
Step 6: Exit the LIST SCAN page.
In the LIST SCAN page, move the cursor to the “LIST” item with left and right
keys, and exit the LIST SCAN page by the up and down keys.

External interface instructions
9.1The USB interface
USB communication interface to achieve online communication with the computer.
(reference SCPI part of communication protocol).
9.2RS232 interface
9.2.1 RS232C interface introduction
Using asynchronous serial communication, the serial interface of the
instrument is not strictly based on RS-232 standard, but only provides a
minimal simplified subset. As shown in table 9-1, sending and receiving data
is relative to the machine.
Table 9- 1
Single | Abbreviations | Pin |
---|---|---|
Send | TXD | 3 |
Receive | RXD | 2 |
Ground | GND | 5 |
RS232C connector use black DB9 hole standard socket, pin sequence is shown in figure 9-1:
Note: To avoid electrical shock, switch off the power when you plug and
unplug the connector;
Note: Do not arbitrarily short connect the output terminal, or short
connect with the housing, so as to avoid damage to the instrument.
9.3 Handler interface
The desktop bridge provides the user with a Handler interface that supports
the output of the comparator sorting results and the output of the list scan
results.
9.3.1 Technical description
Output signal: low effective, open collector output, Opto-couplers isolation.
Input signal: Opto-couplers isolation
DC power supply voltage supported by power pin: 3V-25V
9.3.2 Pin definition
The Handler interface uses blue DB9 hole standard socket, specific pin
definitions and locations, as shown in figure 9-2 and table 9-2.
The following table “/” separates the output signals of the comparator and the
list scan. If the comparator and the list scan have the same signal name,
there is only one signal name.
Table 9- 2
pin | name | attribute | Describe |
---|---|---|---|
1 | nBIN1 | Output | Comparator function, result output, BIN:1; |
List scan function, result output of sequence number 1. if the comparison
result is H or L, then output effective signal.
2| nBIN3| Output| Comparator function, result output, BIN:3;
List scan function, result output of sequence number 3. if the comparison
result is H or L, then output effective signal.
3| nAUX_BIN/ nBIN7| Output| Comparator function, result output, BIN :AUX;
List scan function, result output of sequence number 7. if the comparison
result is H or L, then output effective signal.
4| nEXT_TRIG| Input| External trigger signal, rising edge trigger. The high
level voltage should be consistent with the external DC power source.
5| EXTCOM1| Ground| Reference ground for external DC power supply and output
signal.
6| nBIN2| Output| Comparator function, result output, BIN:2;
List scan function, result output of sequence number 2. if the comparison
result is H or L, then output effective signal.
7| nOutOfBINs| Output| Comparator function, result output, BIN:OUT;
List scan function, Overall comparison result, After startup, as long as one
result of all sequence numbers is H or L, output effective signal.
8| nEOM| Output| End of Measurement signal.
9| EXTDC1| Power| External DC power source. Reference ground is EXTCOM1
