RH520B-en-US_v5.2 8/20
Getting Started
POWER
1.
The RH520B runs on battery power or AC adaptor (5VDC 1A). Battery power consists of three
(3) ‘AA’ batteries. See the Battery Replacement section of this manual when
changing/installing the batteries. Note: Batteries and adaptor are supplied.
2.
Plug the AC adaptor in the AC adaptor jack shown in the Description section. The batteries
will act as battery back-up in the event of an AC power failure.
3.
Once the batteries are installed or the adaptor properly connected, the RH520B will begin
displaying.
4.
In the unlikely event that the AC power AND the battery back-up fails, the RH520B will
require a “Programming Reset” to reset the display. Press the RESET button located inside
the battery compartment. “Reset” clears all settings. Time, Date and the logging interval
need to be entered. The measurement data and alarm history, however, will still be retained
in the non-volatile memory.
5.
The 5-segment battery life indicator allows the user to track the status of the battery. When
all 5-segments are dark, the battery is fully charged. Segments switch off as the battery ages.
When the battery indicator has only one segment left the batteries must be replaced
immediately.
NOTE: Always set the Date, Time, and Sample rate immediately after batteries have been
installed or after the RESET button in the battery compartment has been pressed.
Then press the Data Reset button on the rear face of the meter for >4 seconds to
clear any recorded data.
MOUNTING THE RH520B
The RH520B can be used in the following ways:
