TURNING THE GAUGE AND PDA ON
NOTE
The gauge should be inspected each day before use to
ensure proper operation of all safety features. Refer to
page A–10 for the daily inspection procedure.
NOTE
Charge the 3451 batteries for 2.5 hours prior to initial
use. Charge the PDA as directed in the documentation
provided with the unit.
NOTE
When controlling the gauge with the PDA, the PDA
should be within 4.6 m (15 ft) of the gauge. The
operating range may be as much as 15.2 m (50 ft)
depending upon various conditions.
To turn on the gauge, press the power switch located on the rear
panel of the gauge (see Figure 3–2). The internal beeper will sound
to signify that the gauge is ready for use.
Press the power switch (labeled I/O ) located in the upper left corner
of the PDA keypad. The PDA powers up, then displays the Troxler
menu shown in Figure 3–4.
NOTE
If the PDA has been completely discharged, the first
time it is powered up after recharging, it will go through
a series of reboots, during which it reloads the
RoadReader Plus software and other applications.
Please be patient, as this process may take several
minutes. Do not attempt to use the PDA until it displays
the menu shown in Figure 3–4.
CAUTION
DO NOT change the Regional Settings in the PDA. If
these settings are changed, the RoadReader Plus
software in the PDA will be unable to calculate test
results.
