4.14 System information

This System information function will display the information about the main body and the

firmware. The version would change with the firmware.

4.15 EL Backlight

With the background light, it is convenient to work in the dark condition. Press key

to

switch on or switch off the background light at any moment as you need after power on. Since the
EL light will consume much power, turn on it only when necessary.

4.16 Battery Information

Two AA size alkaline batteries are needed as the power source. After several hours’ usage of

the preset batteries, the battery symbol on the screen will be shown as

. The more of dark

part indicates the more close to fill. When the battery capacity runs out, the battery symbol will be
shown as

and will begin to flash. When this occurs, the batteries should be replaced.

Refer to the sketch below during battery replacing. Please pay much attention to the polarity

of the battery.

Procedure:

1 Power Off the instrument

2 Take off the cover of the

battery and take out the two

batteries

3 Insert the new batteries

into the instrument

4 Replug the battery cover

5 Power on the instrument to

check.

Please take out the batteries when not working during a long period of time.
Suggest to replace the batteries when the battery capacity indicator shows half capacity.

4.17 Auto Power Off

The instrument features an auto power off function designed to conserve battery life. If the

tool is idle for 5 minutes, it will turn itself off. While the voltage of the battery is too low this function
will also work.

4.18 System Reset

Press down the

key while powering on the instrument will restore factory defaults. All the

memory data will be cleared during system reset. The only time this might possibly helpful is if the
parameter in the gauge was somehow corrupted.

4.19 Connecting to a Computer

The gauge is equipped with an RS232 serial port. Using the accessory cable, the gauge has

the ability to connect to a computer, or external storage device. Measurement data stored in the
memory of the gauge can be transferred to the computer through the RS232 port. Detailed
information of the communication software and its usage refer to the software manual.
