Note:

The secondary LCD below shows a generic "P– –", whereas the
meter will indicate the exact program number (e.g. "P1" for
Ammonia LR).

Sampling in progress. This flashing prompt
appears each time the meter is perform-
ing a measurement.

The microprocessor is adjusting the light
level, indicated by a scrolling "SIP".

This indicates that the meter is in a zeroed
state and measurement can be performed.

The blinking "LOBAT" indicates that the
battery voltage is getting low and the bat-
teries need to be replaced.

The instrument is performing an internal
check-up.

This indicates that the meter is in a ready
state and zeroing can be performed.

This indicates that the batteries are dead
and must be replaced.
