TESTING THE ALTERNATOR
If the vehicle battery is regularly out of order, the problem may come form the alternator.
The DIAG-STARTIUM have an «alternator test» feature (p5, n°11). It can show the alternator's charge capacity by
intermittently displaying the voltage and the perrcentage.
To use this feature, the vehicle must be started. Follow the recommended connection procedure (p.15-16), and
choose the «Alternator test» feature on the control panel.
The indicated percentage displays the alternator's state of health :
Between 0 and a 100%
At a 100%
Between a 100% and 200% Overcharge fault.
PROTECTION
These clamps have been designed for maximum protection :
• The charging clamps are fully insulated.
• A fuse guarantees protection against polarity inversion and short circuits. Replacing it requires manual intervention.
• The thermal protection is monitored by a thermostat (cooling for approximately 1/4h). The fault indicator switches
on, the display shows «th».
• If the machine is faulty, an extra thermal protection cuts the machine's power supply without further indications for
the user. Place the machine in a well ventilated area and wait 15 minutes.
• In the event of power supply fault, the machine will enter fault protection mode, The error LED switches on and the
display shows «dEF». If the fault is major, an internal fuse protects the machine. This fuse must be replaced by an
aftersales technician.

DIAG-STARTIUM 60-12 / 60-24
Undercharge fault, the battery is not correctly charged.
Alternator all good.
DIAG-STARTIUM 60-12/60-24
Causes
Power supply issue.
Clamps in short-circuit or polarity reversal.
The battery is faulty.
Voltage error (6V-12V-24V)
Battery not detected or <1V. Display : «BAt HS»
After intensive use the device goes to thermal
protection. Display : «th»
Power supply issue.
The internal fuse is melt.
The ON/OFF switch is not engaged.
The battery is sulphated, start is avoided to protect
the vehicle electronics.
The voltage selected 12 or 24V is not correct.
The battery has element in short-circuit.
Remedies
Check the power supply.
Check if the fuses have blown.
Do not put the clamps in short-circuit.
Reverse the polarity.
Check the voltage at the battery
terminals with a voltmeter. If the voltage
instantaneously increase by more than
2.5V by element the battery can be
sulphated or damaged.
Check if the battery is correctly connected
either in 6V, 12V or 24V.
Connect the battery.
Select TIMER if the battery voltage is <1V.
Wait 1/4h for the device to cool down.
Check the power supply.
Send the device back to GYS after sales.
Switch the ON/OFF button.
Recharge the battery prior using START
ENGINE.
Check the battery voltage and connect it
following the recommended connection.
The battery cannot be recovered, it must
be replaced.
