VI. Selecting a Test Method

There are four test methods available, please select one suitable for your 

real need: 

1) 

 

Measure with Short Probe:

 This probe is assembled when shipped. 

     This kind of method has wide applications and offers good measurement 

     result. See the Figure as below:

2)  Measure with Long Probe:

 This probe is packed as an accessory when 

     shipped, which has limited applications or target at special objects, 

     featuring fast response. See the Figure as below:

3)  Measure with Magnet Mount:

 This probe is packed as an accessory 

      when shipped, mainly used on flat ferrous objects, such elevator. See 

      the Figure as below:

4)  Measure without an Accessory:

 Used on flat surface of object to get a 

     stable reading, See the Figure as below:

VII. Installing the Battery

To install the battery: 

1)  Unscrew the battery cover shown as in the Figure below: 

2)  Place 9V (G6F22 6F22) battery into the battery compartment. Be aware 

     of the battery polarity. Then screw up the battery cover shown as below: 

VIII. Check the Battery at Power-On

1 Press  POWER  key to power on. 
      Refer to the Figure on the right:

Press down

 

2 Press and hold the button, LCD will show full display for 1 second, 

release it and the Tester start to work. It defaults at Acceleration mode, 

USB Off and APO On status at power-on. if LCD screen displays symbol 

       

or

       

,  please replace battery timely. Refer to the following

      Figure for details

Press POWER key to power off immediately.

IX. Operation Instruction

1.  Measuring Acceleration

1)  Press “ 

” button to access acceleration mode, LCD will show аp, 10-

     10kHz and m/s  icons. The Tester usually defaults to “m/s ” mode. See 

     the Figure below for details:

2)  Select a suitable test method to perform the measurement, the reading 

     will show on LCD, check the Figure below:

2.  Measuring Velocity

1)  Press “ 

V

 ” to enter velocity mode, LCD will show Vrms, 10-1kHz and 

     cm/s icons, See the Figure below for details:
