Data

 

Printing

 

At  the  end  of  the  inspection  process,  or  end  of  the  day,  the  user  may  require  the  readings  be  transferred  to  a 

computer. The following steps outline this procedure.   

Before  printing,  please  insert  one  connection  plug  of  the  print  cable  (Optional  parts)  into  the  socket  on  the 

upper‐left of the main body, and insert the other plug into the communication socket of the mini‐printer. 
1.

 

Press the 

  key to activate the data logging functions.   

2.

 

Use the 

  key and the 

  key to select the desired file. 

3.

 

Press the 

  key to print the selected file. This operation will send all the data in current file to your PC  and 

print them out. 

4.

 

Press the 

  key to exit the data logging functions and return to measurement mode.

Sound

 

Mode

 

When the sound is set to 

On

】,

it would make a short beep any time you press a key, take a measurement, or the 

measured value exceeds the tolerance limit. 

Press  the 

  key  to  switch  the  beep  mode  on  and  off.  It  will  display  the  current  sound  mode  on  the  main 

screen. 

4.11

 

EL

 

Backlight

 

 

The  background  light  makes  it  easy  to  use  in  darker  conditions  indoors  or  out.  Press  key 

  to  switch  on  or 

switch  off  the  background light  at  any  moment  as you need  after  power  on.  Since  the EL light  will  consume more 
power, turn on it only when necessary. 

4.12

 

Battery

 

Icon

 

Two AA size alkaline batteries are used as the power source. As the battery begins to drain the display will be 

shown as

.

 

When the battery capacity runs out, the battery symbol will be shown as 

  and will begin to 

flash. When this occurs, the batteries should be replaced. Pay close attention to polarity. 

Please remove batteries if the UTG‐2800 will not be used for an extended period of time. 

 

4.13

 

Auto

 

Power

 

Off

 

The  instrument  features  an  auto  power  off  function  designed  to  conserve  battery  life.  If  the  tool  is  idle  for  5 

minutes, it will turn itself off.   

4.14

 

System

 

Reset

 

 

Press down the 

  key while powering on the instrument will restore factory defaults. All the memory data will 

be  cleared  during  system  reset.  The  only  time  this  might  possibly  helpful  is  if  the  parameter  in  the  gauge  was 
somehow corrupted. 
 
 

4.15

 

Connecting

 

to

 

a

 

Computer

 

The UTG‐2900 is equipped with a USB port. Using the accessory cable, the gauge has the ability to connect to a 

computer, or external storage device. Measurement data stored in the memory of the gauge can be transferred to the 
computer through the USB port.
