7 Troubleshooting Guide
Below are some frequently asked questions and answers. Please check if any
apply to your instrument before contacting B&K Precision.
Q: I cannot power up the instrument
- Check that the power cord is securely connected to the AC input and
there is live power from your electrical AC outlet.
- Check and confirm that the correct fuse is inserted and not blown.
- Verify that the AC power coming from the mains is the correct voltage.
The generator can accept a specific range of AC input voltages. Refer to
section “2.1 Input Power Requirements”.
Q: The measurements on the instrument are shown in a different color
- The component under test may be out of the range of the LCR meter.
Please see the specifications and ranges of the unit.
- Make sure the component test fixture or Kelvin clip is properly secured to
the unit and perform an open and short calibration.
Q: The front panel keys are not responding to key presses
- Verify that the instrument is in REMOTE mode (RMT will be shown on the
front panel in green.) If it is in REMOTE mode, the unit must be changed
to LOCAL mode in order to respond to front panel key presses. To return
to LOCAL mode from the front panel, press the key.
