Section 2 Using the Tracker 2800/2800S
2-1 Unpacking and what you need to get started
To set up and use your Tracker 2800 or 2800S, you will need the following:
One set of Microprobes (Huntron MP20).
This manual (Tracker 2800/2800S User’s manual)
For Tracker 2800S, cables to connect to a PCB connector or DIP clip cables and clips (These
are not included)
Common test lead
Blue test lead for use with DC Voltage source
Using the unpacking list, verify that all that all pieces are included in the shipping container. Contact
Huntron immediately if pieces are missing.

Connect the Tracker 2800 or 2800S to power.
Turn the Tracker 2800 ON using the front panel power switch. The “Power-up” menu will be
displayed on the LCD touch screen.
Insert your Huntron Microprobes into the shrouded banana jacks marked Channel A (or
Channel B) and Common as shown in Figure 2-3. Typically, the red Microprobe lead will be
used in the Channel A (or B) connection and the black Microprobe used in the Common
connection.
Proceed to test components on a powered off circuit board by holding the tips of the test probes
to the component pins.
Touching the signature area on the LCD touch screen will toggle from full screen signature
display to signature display with text information. NOTE: Use only your fingers to activate
the Tracker touch screen. Using pens, probes or any sharp device can result in damage to
the screen.

2-3. Channel Selection
There are two channels on the Tracker 2800 (channel A and channel B) which are selected by pressing
the appropriate front panel button. When using a single channel, the red probe should be plugged into
the corresponding channel test terminal and the black probe or common test lead should be plugged
into the common test terminal. When testing, the red probe should be connected to the positive
terminal of a device (i.e. anode, +V, etc.) and the black probe should be connected to the negative
terminal of a device or a common reference (i.e. cathode, ground). Following this procedure should
assure that the signature appears in the correct quadrants of the LCD display.
