OWNERS MANUAL FOR F-2000T
(VERSION 4.2 FOR BURLEY TOBACCO)
This addendum is to be used in conjunction with the Owners Manual for the F-2000 Hay Moisture Meter
(attached). This addendum contains information specific to the tobacco applications.
We recommend the user
read the Owner’s Manual and addendum completely, before using the F-2000T.
The meter reads moisture in TOBACCO between 8.0 and 37.0%. It also stores the reading and
displays the average and maximum of up to 100 accumulated readings. The meter also has a set
point and a buzzer. Whenever the displayed reading is above the set point value, the buzzer will
sound. The meter will automatically correct the input reading for sample temperature, provided that
the user has entered the correct temperature in the meter.
Whenever the battery is removed and then reconnected (i.e when power is applied), the meter will
display the software version number (4.2) for one second and then shut off if no key is pressed.
The meter has FOUR keys - the “READ” key, the “CHECK” key, the “SET” key and the “TEMP” key
(see the attached diagram).
1.

Resetting the meter will restore the default settings and erase all the stored readings.
Press the “CHECK” key immediately, followed by the “SET” key. The meter will display “200” for two
seconds and then shut off.

TO CHANGE THE SET POINT VALUE
The default set point value for the meter is 20.0%. The user can change the value between 8.0 and

3.
TO CHANGE THE TEMPERATURE SETTING
The meter will automatically correct the moisture reading for sample temperature, provided the user
has entered the correct SAMPLE TEMPERATURE in the meter. The user can set the temperature
