Meter preparation and maintenance 

A. 

Battery installation and replacement 

1. 

Use a screwdriver to remove the 4 screws securing the battery chamber cover. 

2. 

Lift off the battery chamber cover. 

3. 

Install two alkaline C-size batteries according to the inscribed battery symbols 

on the inside of the battery chamber.  Make sure batteries are in correct polarity. 

4. 

Close the battery chamber cover and secure with the 4 screws. 

5. 

Press and release the 

Power

 button ( ) on the keypad.  The LCD will come on; 

if not, consult the trouble shooting guide in the Pro 1020 User Manual. 

6. 

Under normal conditions, the average battery life is 425 hours at room 

temperature without using the back light. A battery symbol will blink in the 

lower, left corner of the display to indicate low batteries when approximately 1 

hour of battery life remains. 

B. 

Instrument software setup 

1. 

Press the Power key to turn the instrument on. The instrument will briefly 

display the splash screen with the YSI logo then go directly to the main run 

screen.
