The auto power down function
If the
lion alcolmeter® 700
is left switched on, but no action is then
taken for two minutes, it will automatically switch itself off, to conserve
battery life. This is preceded by a series of ten warning beeps.
The auto power down function can be stopped at any point by pressing
either of the two buttons. This resets the two minute counter.
Mouthpiece port illumination
The
lion alcolmeter® 700
is fitted with mouthpiece port illumination. This
is activated when the instrument is ready to carry out a test. This essential
feature is used when fitting the mouthpiece in low light conditions or is
used to indicate to the subject where to blow when providing a sample
into a cup or zero tolerance test.
Indication LED’s
The
lion alcolmeter® 700
is fitted with tw
o indication LED’s, one red,
denoting a fail, and one green, denoting a pass. The level at which these
LEDs change colour is set in the configuration program.
The pass / fail level for the cup test and the breath test may be different.
Fuel cell heater
To maintain the instrument
’
s performance at very low temperatures it is
fitted with a heater. The heater functionality is automatically controlled
by the instrument, and requires no user intervention at all.
Do not attempt to switch off the 700 by simply removing the batteries.
Such action is recorded in the system memory.
