The Magmeter has 4 keys:
power
tick
up
down
The keys second meanings if held down for more than 2
seconds. The step by step instructions that follow provide all
the key information about operation of the instrument. Note that
unless otherwise specified, any readings referred to are in
Gauss.
Step 1 Plug in the Field Probe
Step 2 Power On/Off
Switch the unit on by pressing the power key. The display
shows ‘zeroing..’ and calibration due date for a few
seconds and then the value of the magnetic field. This will
be based on the last used settings of mode and units. To
switch the unit off press and hold the power key for 2
seconds.
Step 3 Zero
The zero reading of the meter should be adjusted before
taking readings. Hold the probe away from magnetic
fields. The display should show 0.0 Gauss /-0.5
Gauss. If not, short press the
tick key. The display will
indicate ‘zeroing..’ then change to read approximately
zero. The probe can now be used to take measurements.
The reading can be zeroed in this way at any time.
