5.1 GK-404 Readout Box
The GK404 is a palm sized readout box which displays the vibrating wire value and the
temperature in degrees centigrade.
5.1.1 Operating the GK-404
Before use, attach the flying leads to the GK-404 by aligning the red circle on the silver
“Lemo” connector of the flying leads with the red line on the top of the GK-404 (Figure
10). Insert the Lemo connector into the GK-404 until it locks into place.
Figure 10 - Lemo Connector to GK-404
Connect each of the clips on the leads to the matching colors of the sensor conductors,
with blue representing the shield (bare).
To turn the GK-404 on, press the “ON/OFF” button on the front panel of the unit. The
initial startup screen will display:
Geokon Inc.
GK-404 verX.XX
After approximately one second, the GK-404 will start taking readings and display them
based on the settings of the POS and MODE buttons.
The unit display (from left to right) is as follows:

The current Position: Set by the POS button. Displayed as a letter A through F.

The current Reading: Set by the MODE button. Displayed as a numeric value
followed by the unit of measure.

Temperature reading of the attached gage in degrees Celsius.
Use the POS button to select position B and the MODE button to select Dg (digits).
(Other functions can be selected as described in the GK404 Manual.)
The GK-404 will continue to take measurements and display readings until the unit is
turned off, either manually, or if enabled, by the Auto-Off timer. If the no reading
displays or the reading is unstable see Section 7 for troubleshooting suggestions.
