Setting the flow unit
To set the unit of the flow velocity, press the "UNIT" key. You can choose
between m/s, km/h, ft/min, knots and mps. The default setting is m/s.
6.3
Setting the temperature unit
To set the temperature unit displayed, press and release "°C/°F" once. You
can choose between °C and °F. The default setting is °C.

Volume flow measurement
For a volume flow measurement, first press the "VEL/FLOW" key
to select between velocity and volume flow measurement. This is
signalled by "VEL" (speed measurement) and "FLOW" (volume
flow measurement) on the display. Depending on the entered
area and the measured wind flow, the measured value can also
be significantly higher than it is possible to display. In this case,
"x100" or "x10" is displayed next to the measured value. The
measured value in the display must then be multiplied by 100 or
10 accordingly.

Setting the unit of the volume flow measurement
To select the unit FT³ or m³, press and release the "UNIT" key
once.
Hint:
The function also has an effect on the area specification.
