GENERAL
Congratulations on your purchase of this new and innovative ALMEMO
®
meas-
uring instrument. Thanks to the patented ALMEMO
®
connector the device con-
figures itself automatically; its operation should be fairly straightforward. The de-
vice can, however, be used with such a wide range of sensors and peripherals
and offers many different special functions. You are advised therefore to
properly familiarize yourself with the way the sensors function and with the de-
vice's numerous possibilities and take the time to carefully read these operating
instructions and the appropriate sections in the ALMEMO
®
Manual. This is ab-
solutely necessary to avoid operating and measuring errors and to prevent dam-
age to the device. To help you find the answers to your questions quickly and
easily there is a comprehensive index at the end both of these instructions and
of the Manual.
