Cochran EMC-16 User manual

Any time the ‘BATT’ legend is on, battery voltage is below 2.5 volts
and batteries should be changed. When ‘BATT” legend is flashing,
battery voltage is below 2.2 volts and batteries MUST be changed.
BATT
WARNING
METRIC
Any time the “WARNING” legend is on and/or flashing, some parameter is out of
bounds. Look for the offending parameter that is flashing on and off every second.
When ‘METRIC’ legend
is on, the unit is
computing in Metric
variables and displaying
data in Metric units.
