3.1

Connecting the Components

• Connect the Test hammer cable to the concrete test

hammer and to the display unit at input B.

• Connect the transfer cable for data transmission to the

PC, and for transmission to the printer, connect the
printer cable to interface RS232.

3.2

Putting the Display Unit into
Operation

• Press the ON/OFF key.
The following data are briefly displayed: 

- Device model (Model ND or LD)
- Serial number of the concrete test hammer on the

left and that of the display unit on the right side

Check whether the serial number of the con-
crete test hammer on the display corresponds
to the number on the device.

- Installed software version
- Self-test performed: ”Test o.k.”
- Remaining battery life

Then the measuring display of the previously measured
object appears (see Fig. 3.1, but without values).

If no display appears, replace the batteries.

Measuring display

The symbols and values only appear if they have been
set or if a measurement series has been performed.
• Adopting the menu settings from the 

previous measu-

rement:

Continue with ”Measuring Process”, page 10.

• Making 

new settings:

Continue with ”Settings”, page 6.
