INITIAL PREPARATION
Each meter is supplied complete with batteries. Remove the back
cover, unwrap the batteries and install them while paying attention to
the polarity. Alternatively, connect the HI 710005 or HI 710006
voltage adapter to the power adapter plug.
To prepare the instrument for use, choose the most appropriate tem-
perature probe for your application (see accessories) and connect it to
the connector located on the top of the instrument.
All the probes have been factory precalibrated and no calibration is
needed.
To turn the meter on, press the ON/OFF key.
The batteries charge status or "LINE" message
(if external power adapter is connected) will be
displayed on the LCD for a few seconds.
The meter is now ready to operate.
To maximize battery life, the meter is automatically turned off after a
user selectable period of non-use (this feature is enabled and set to
5 minutes by default; it can be disabled or changed through setup
code 40). If in logging mode, after the period of non-use, the meter
will continue to monitor the temperature periodically at the end of
every logging interval. Only the "LOG" indication will be visible on
LCD. While storing data in memory, during the sleep mode, the
reading will appear briefly on the LCD.
To reactivate the display, press the
ON/OFF
key.
Note:
When the use of an alternate function (FNC, CFM and LOT
INFO) is requested, press and hold the
ALT
key first and then
the second listed key.
