Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com CRANKING TEST Cranking Test: When the engine starts, the device will test the cranking system automatically and store the test result. Usually, if the cranking voltage is more than 9.6V, it means it is nor- mal. But if the cranking voltage is less than 9.6V, it means it is abnormal. If the cranking voltage is too low, this maybe due to the age of the bat- tery, low power or a starter fault etc. Press the Cranking Test button on the Home page to show results. 1. Date and time of test. 2. Cranking Time: Shown in milliseconds 3. Display of the cranking voltage values, green means healthy, red means unhealthy. 4. Cranking voltage graph.
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com CHARGING TEST There are 3 parts to the Charging Test; Idle Speed Test, High Speed Test and Diode Ripple Test. Press the Charging Test button on the home page to start testing. 1. Idle Speed Test: 1) Keep the vehicle in idle mode. 2) Turn on all electrical equipment, such as head- lights, air con, glass heating, interior lighting. 3) Click Test, which will run for 6 seconds.
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com 2. High Speed Test: 1) Turn off all electrical equipment, such as head- lights, air con, glass heat- ing, interior lighting. 2) Keep the engine at 2500 - 3000 RPM. 3) Click Test, which will run for 6 seconds.
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com 3. Diode Ripple Test: 1) Keep the vehicle in idle mode. 2) Turn off all electrical equipment, such as head- lights, air con, glass heating, interior lighting. 3) Click Test, which will run for 6 seconds.
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com CHARGING TEST RESULTS 1. Date and Time of test. 2. Idle Charging Voltage: Green = Ok, Red = Abnormal. 3. High Speed Charging Voltage: Green = Ok, Red = Abnormal. 4. Diode Ripple Voltage: Green = Ok, Red = Abnormal. 5. Click button to restart test. Description of charging voltage tests. a) Charging Voltage: Normal. Charging system shows the alternator output normal, no problem detected. b) Charging Voltage: Low. Check engine transmission belt isn’t slipping or disconnected, check whether the line connection between the alternator and battery is normal or not. If transmission belt and line connection is good, please follow the car manufacturers recommendations to exclude the alternator failure. c) Charging Voltage: High. The alternator output voltage is too high. Since most automotive engines use built-in regulators, there maybe a need to replace the regulator assembly (older vehicles use external regulators, which may need replacing). Common voltage limits for automotive regulators is 14.7+ 0.5V. High charging volt will overcharge the battery and shorten its life and may make it malfunction. d) No Voltage Output: No engine voltage output is detected. Check if the alternator cable and alternator belt are working correctly.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com TIPS 1. The App requires a smartphone with the minimum software: Android 5.0 and higher, IPhone iOS 11.0 and higher, based on software version 2.3.0. 2. When your mobile enters Bluetooth range (10m), it will receive notification. 3. At the time of set up, if you choose “not allowed to access location”, you will not receive notification alerts. If you want to use this function in the future, you can open the location in the phone settings by selecting “always allow location access”. 4. If the daily test alert or exception test alert functions are not open when the mobile is close to the device, it also can’t get notification of the daily test results. You can set to allow notifications both in the app and phones settings. 5. Firmware update will clear all da ta in the device, please open the app, wait for sync to finish before updating the firmware. 6. All historical data will be stored in the phone. App upgrades will not lose the historical data. But if the app is uninstalled, the phone data will be cleared. 7. The device will automaticall y monitor the vehicle battery, cranking and charging systems and store the data for 30 days. Use the app and link to the device via bluetooth at least once every 30 days for the device to synchronise all data to your mobile. 8. If the app can not search the ba ttery monitor, please ensure the mobile bluetooth is on and within 10m of the device.
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com TROUBLESHOOTING Issue Solution Need to enter a PIN code for Bluetooth connection. When Bluetooth switch is turned on, some mobile phones will automatically list all nearby Bluetooth device names. Please ignore this PIN code pop-up as the device does not require a PIN code. Re-running the app will automatically connect to the device. Bluetooth connection fail. Ensure that the Bluetooth switch of the mobile is turned on, and there are no other phones nearby to connect the device. Then try to restart the Bluetooth or restart the mobile. In addition, if the phone Bluetooth is connected with any other device, it may also cause the Bluetooth not to connect correctly. There is no track or parking position for the trip. 1.) Confirm that the GPS switch of the mobile is turned on. 2.) Confirm that the app has obtained the permission of the location service. 3.) Confirm that the app is running and the device is connected. 4.) Confirm that the “GPS Track Server” in the settings of the app is turned on. 5.) Confirm that the app can be started by itself and can run in the background. There is no abnormal alarm notification. Go to the settings of the mobile phone and turn on the application notification permission. The display of battery power is inaccurate or no vehicle starting system data. Suitable for 12V lead-acid and LiFEPO4 starting batteries of vehicles. If there is no in-vehicle usage scenario, such as no engine start behavior, the power may be inaccurate and there is no start data.
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com NOTE: If your issue is not listed above, you can contact the App Administrator by going to the ‘Home’ page and clicking on ‘Settings’and then clicking on ’Online Service’. MAINTENANCE CLEANING Before cleaning, disconnect the device from the battery. DO NOT use any liquid cleaning product. DO NOT use any inflammable cleaning product. DO NOT submerge the device or spill any liquids over it. If needed, clean the device wi th a light, damp, soft cloth. The vehicle charging system cannot be tested. The test needs to be performed during engine running. It supports all ordinary alternators, and does not support smart alternators. If the test still does not work, please check with the vehicle manufacturer whether it is a smart alternator. The fuel cost statistics are inaccurate. Check whether the fuel consumption and the fuel price are correctly entered. The position or trajectory is sometimes correct, sometimes incorrect or not obtained. If the app can’t be self-started and run in the background, the location data cannot be obtained. It is necessary to give the app the permission to self start and run in the background. this needs to be obtained in the settings of the phone.
