General Troubleshooting
Problem:
The display freezes and the measurement values will not change.
Solution:
The meter is in the AUTO-READ measurement mode (the AR icon will
appear in the top, right corner of the display). Press
to start a new
reading or select another measurement mode in the setup menu.
Problem:
When switching between measurement parameters, the reading takes
a few seconds to update after I make my selection.
Solution:
When scrolling between the measurement parameters, the meter
waits approximately 3 seconds to confirm your measurement selection.
After your selection is made, if there needs to be a change in circuitry,
the meter will automatically route it. During this time, the display will
flash the temperature reading and compensation setting (information
on line 3). The meter will then automatically display the appropriate
reading on line one when complete.
Problem:
When I press
the meter displays
.
Solution:
The meter is printing and cannot enter the calibration mode until the
printing is done. This should rarely occur if the meter is set to a 9600
baud rate. If the meter is at a lower baud rate, the delay will be longer.
Problem:
The meter did not accept the change I made in the setup menu.
Solution:
After making a change in the setup menu, press
until the arrow
icon points to the top line (confirms the change) and then press
to
save the change and return to the measurement mode.
Problem:
How do I abort a calibration?
Solution:
Press and hold
to abort any meter operation and return to the
measurement mode.
Problem:
The printout is a string of numbers and units with commas.
Solution:
The output format in the setup menu is set to the computer output or
the printer baud rate is set incorrectly in the setup menu. Change the
output format to the printer output in the setup menu. Change the
baud rate to the correct value for the printer that is being used.
Problem:
When I press the stirrer button, the stirrer doesn’t work.
Solution:
The current stirrer setting is off. Set the speed to 1 through 7 in the
setup menu.
