D.  AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF 

The instrument has an automatic shut off function in order to prolong battery 
life.  After approximately 10 minutes without activity (no buttons pushed), the 
meter will automatically shut off.  To disable this feature, press the 

REC 

button.  

 

E.  OVERLOAD INDICATOR

 

When the measurement is out of range, "- - - -" appears on the display. 
Additional information may be contained in the individual probe instruction 
manual(s).

 

 

F.  BATTERY REPLACEMENT 

Replace the battery when the low battery icon is displayed in the left 
corner of LCD.  In-spec measurements may be made for 
several hours after the low battery indicator appears. 

Slide the battery cover away from the instrument, remove the 
battery and replace with a 9V battery (alkaline or heavy duty type). 

Close the battery cover. 

 

G.  RS232 PC SERIAL INTERFACE 

The instrument features RS232 output via a 3.5 mm terminal.  The signal 
output is a 16-digit data stream that can be adapted to user-defined applica-
tions.

  

A RS232 lead with the following connection is required to link the 

instrument with the PC serial interface.
