MDX-652P

Introduction & Overview

Safety Guidelines

Because of the possibility of personal injury, always use extreme caution when

working with batteries. Follow all BCI (Battery Council International) safety

recommendations.

Wash hands after handling.

Battery posts, terminals, and

related accessories contain lead

and lead compounds, chemicals

known to the state of California to

cause cancer and birth defects or

other reproductive harm.

Capabilities

The MDX-652P Battery Conductance and Electrical System Analyzer tests 6 &

12-volt regular ooded, AGM at plate, AGM spiral, and gel batteries, as well as

12 & 24-volt starting and charging systems for passenger cars and light trucks.

It displays the test results in seconds and features a built-in printer to provide

customers with a copy of the results.

Additional features include the ability to:

•test batteries rated from 100 to 2000 CCA

•detect bad cells

•protect against reverse polarity

•test discharged batteries

•test multiple rating systems (CCA, CA, MCA, JIS, EN, DIN, SAE, IEC)

Registering And Servicing Your Tester

To register, log on at www.midtronics.com/warranty

and have your serial number ready. The number is at

the bottom of the label on the back of the tester. If your

tester needs repair, contact Midtronics Customer Service

at 630.323.2800 or at CSTransHQ@midtronics.com.

Servicing the tester yourself will void your warranty. See

the back cover of this manual for additional warranty

information.

Display and Keypad

When you rst connect the MDX-652P to a battery, it functions as a voltmeter

until you press .

IMPORTANT: If you connect the tester to a voltage source greater

than 30 Vdc, you may damage the tester’s circuitry.

The menu-driven display will then guide you step by step through the test

process. Use the keypad buttons to scroll to and select options in the menu.

To turn o the tester when not connected to the battery, briey press and hold

the button.

Preparations Before the Test

Before connecting the tester, clean the battery posts or side terminals with

a wire brush and a mixture of baking soda and water. When testing side-

post batteries, install and tighten lead terminal adapters. A set of adapters is

included with the tester.

IMPORTANT: Do not test at steel bolts. For OUT-OF-VEHICLE testing,

failure to install terminal adapters or installing terminal adapters that

are worn or dirty may result in inaccurate test results. To avoid dam-

age, never use a wrench to tighten the adapters more than ¼ turn.

If you are testing in the vehicle, make sure all accessory loads are o, the key is

not in the ignition, and the doors are closed.

Connecting the Tester

•Connect the red clamp to the positive (+) terminal and the black clamp to

the negative (–) terminal.

•For a proper connection, move the clamps back and forth. The tester re-

quires that both sides of each clamp be rmly connected before testing. A

poor connection will produce a CHECK CONNECTION or WIGGLE CLAMPS

message. If the message appears, clean the terminals and reconnect the

clamps.

•The preferred test position is at the battery terminals. If the battery is not

accessible, you may test at the jumper post; however, the available power

measurement may be lower than the actual value.

Battery & System Test

When the tester is rst connected to the battery, it functions as a voltmeter

until is pressed to start the test.

NOTE: This voltmeter function can be turned o through the

Options Menu.

Scroll to each parameter using

por q

and press to select. If any messages

appear during the test, see the “Test Messages”section.

1. BAT. LOCATION: Scroll to and select IN VEHICLE or OUT OF VEHICLE for a

battery not connected to a vehicle. Following an IN VEHICLE test you will be

prompted to test the starting and charging systems.

IMPORTANT: The performance of the starting and charging systems

depends on the battery’s condition. It is important that the battery is

good and fully charged before any further system testing.

2. POST TYPE: (In-Vehicle only) Scroll to TOP POST, SIDE POST or JUMP START

POST where applicable.

3. APPLICATION: Scroll to and select AUTOMOTIVE, MOTORCYCLE, MARINE,

LAWN & GARDEN, GROUP 31, or COMMERCIAL -4D/8D.

4. BATTERY TYPE: Scroll to and select REGULAR FLOODED, AGM FLAT PLATE,

AGM SPIRAL, or GEL where applicable.

5. BATTERY STANDARD: Scroll to and select the battery’s rating system. Not

all rating systems are available for each application.

GOOD BATTERY Return the battery to service.

GOOD-RECHARGE Fully charge the battery and return it to service.

CHARGE &

RETEST

Fully charge the battery and retest. Failure to

fully charge the battery before retesting may

cause inaccurate results. If CHARGE & RETEST

appears again after you fully charge the battery,

replace the battery.

REPLACE BATTERY Replace the battery and retest. A REPLACE

BATTERY result may also mean a poor connection

between the battery cables and the battery. After

disconnecting the battery cables, retest the battery

using the out-of-vehicle test before replacing it.

BAD CELL-

REPLACE

Replace the battery and retest.

24 VOLT SYSTEM 24-volt system detected. Disconnect batteries and

test individually.

READY TO INSTALL Battery has just been activated and is ready to

install in vehicle (Motorcycle only)

NEEDS CHARGE

Fully charge battery and retest using BEFORE

DELIVERY. (Motorcycle only)

Failure to fully charge the battery before retesting

may cause false readings.

8. Press to proceed with the starter test, to print the test results or

to return to the Options Menu.

NOTE: For an in-vehicle test, the display alternates between the

test results and the message PRESS FOR STARTER TEST.

IMPORTANT: The MDX-652P retains the results of the last test only.

When you start a new test, the last results are overwritten.
