PROBLEM 

 
PROBABLE CAUSE 

 
CORRECTIVE MEASURES
 

 
1) Display shows "LOBAT" 

 
Batteries are low 

 
a) Replace batteries (Refer to page 3). 

 
2) Display shows "1999.9" or  
"-1999.99" 

 
a) Bad connection between Light Wand 
and Probe Socket 
 
b) Too much/too little light 

 
a) Be sure the Light Wand is properly 
inserted into the Probe Socket. 
 
b) Be sure the Light Wand is properly 
seated in the Optical Standard when 
Zero Adjusting. 

 
3) Poor Repeatability 

 
a) Inconsistent measurement technique 

 
a) Make sure you are applying enough 
pressure between the Light Wand and 
the subject's arm. 
 
b) The silver line on the Light Wand 
must be aligned with the line on the 
Optical Standard when Zero Adjusting. 
 
c) When taking a measurement, the 
sliver line on the Light Wand must point 
toward the subject's shoulder. 
 
d) Use the Light Shield to block the 
external light.  Always avoid 
measurements under strong lights (e.g. 
direct sunlight) because errors may 
occur.
