Measurements
1.
Connect the Adapter-to-DMM cable to the DMM as follows: RED lead to the '+'
Terminal and BLACK lead to the '-' terminal.
2.
Set the DMM to a dc mV range.
3.
Affix a small piece (approx. 0.5") of supplied reflective tape to the object under test.
4.
Align the Photo-Tachometer light source with the reflective tape mark on the moving
object.
5.
Select Range A or Range B with the Range Switch (Start with B if range unknown).
6.
Press the Measure Button and read the RPM measurement on the DMM display.
7.
The TARGET LED Status Indicator lights up on the front of the Adapter when the
light source beam has been broken by the object under test.
NOTE:
To obtain better accuracy for low RPM measurements (less than 50 RPM) use
more than one piece of reflective tape. Divide the meter reading by the number of
reflective tape pieces for accurate measurement data.
Maintenance
Battery Replacement
The low battery status LED lights up when it is nearing the time to replace the four 1.5V
'AA' batteries. Reliable readings can still be obtained, however, for several hours after the
first appearance of the low battery indicator. To replace the batteries:
a) Remove the battery compartment cover on the rear of the meter.
b) Replace the batteries and reinstall the compartment cover
Cleaning
Caution:
Use only a dry cloth to clean the plastic case.
