2.2
Battery Installation and Replacement
ShinewayTech
series palm optical instruments use an alkaline battery. Before use of
the instrument, make sure the battery is correctly installed.
When the battery power is low, low battery indicator is shown on LCD. As long as
there is any character on LCD, the instrument can still be in operation. However, when LCD
turns dark, the output power becomes unstable, therefore measured power value will not be
accurate and in consequence, the measurement accuracy is degraded.

With default setting, the Auto-off function of ShinewayTech
series palm optical fiber
