My Apollo will not switch on.
Please chech the battery is inserted correctly, an in the correct orientation according to the marks inside
the battery box. If this still does not solve the issue, the battery may be dead – try replacing with a fresh
one.
Apollo switches itself off, the battery is fine!
Apollo has a built-in feature called “AutoOff”, which makes Apollo switch itself off to conserve battery
power, a set amount of time after the last key press. If for example you want to connect Apollo to a sensor
for an extended period of time, and note down the readings periodically, then the default of 5 minutes may
be too short.
The amount of time of inactivity can be changed to be longer or shorter depending on your preferences.
Go to Menu AutoOff Period
→
and choose the most appropriate time period. You can choose a value from
5 minutes up to 2 hours (120 minutes).
