Starter Performance Evaluation

<Application>

Evaluation of starter motors involves measuring the voltage to the starter motor and currents of both the armature and field coil. The starter motor should be tested repeatedly to find problems by evaluating waveform data and measured values such as Peak - Peak and Average.

History Memory
The DL708E will save up to 1,000 previous waveform displays and corresponding data. After acquisition, all waveform displays can be superimposed on the screen allowing engineers to quickly find trouble points.
Measurements Saved as File and Exported to Excel
Measurements such as p-p and average can be made automatically on each waveform, and saved as an ASCII File. These measurement values can then be exported to a PC for further analysis.
