Prepare and Make a Measurement
Inspect the two parts of the compression cell to make sure it is clean and empty.
If the temperature of the grain sample differs a great deal from that of the meter, e.g. when taking
measurements directly from the dryer, it is recommended to preheat the meter as follows:
a. Fill the test cell with the desired crop, compress it and wait approx. 1-2 minutes.
b. Proceed with the normal testing procedure as detailed below.
1.Turn on the device
Press ON/TEST button ( by holding the ON/TEST button backlight in the
display will switch on).
2. Select ‘Measure’
and press the ON/TEST button (The menu “MEASURE” (choice of crop) will
automatically appear in the display)
Select the crop to be tested by using the arrow keys
⇑
or
⇓
.
To select a different crop press the ESC/OFF button to return to MEASURE and use arrow keys
⇑
or
⇓
to
cycle through the options.
3. Fill the sample into the test cell
evenly with the desired crop until the top is reached. Screw on the lid
until the pressure indicator is flush with the top of the lid.
4. Immediately press the ON/TEST button.
The word “TEST” will be displayed for approx. 10 seconds before the result will appear.
The
left side
of the display will then show the actual moisture content of the sample e.g. 11,9%.
The
right side
of the display will show the average of the last 4 measurements e.g. 10,8%.
The tester will remain with the chosen crop displayed and a new measurement can be made by emptying
the test cell and filling it with a new sample.
