Operation
Turn Power ON
Press the power button to turn power on. The meter will perform a short self-test.
A. Airflow Measurements
1. Press the Function button to select the Anemometer function. In Air
Flow mode, the display will show Air Velocity and Temperature.
2. Press Unit button to select desired unit of measure (FPM, MPH,
KNOT, KM/H, or M/S)
B. %RH Measurements
1. Press the Function button to select %RH function. In %RH mode, the
display will show %RH and Temperature.
2. Press the °C/°F button to select the desired temperature unit of
measure.
C. Temperature Measurements
