MODEL GK-404 VIBRATING WIRE READOUT | INTRODUCTION | 1
1. INTRODUCTION
The Model GK-404 Vibrating Wire Readout is a portable, low-power, handheld
readout unit that is capable of operating for more than 20 hours continuously on
two AA batteries. It is designed for the readout of all Geokon vibrating wire
gauges and transducers, and is capable of displaying the reading in either digits,
frequency (Hz), period (μs), or microstrain (με). The GK-404 also displays the
temperature of the transducer (embedded thermistor) with a resolution of 0.1 °C.
2| INITIAL SETUP | GEOKON
2. INITIAL SETUP
2.1 ACCESSORIES
The GK-404 is sold with the following accessories:
■GK-404-1 flying leads
■Carrying case
■Nylon strap for the carrying case
■Neck strap for the GK-404
Before use, attach the flying leads to the GK-404 as follows:
1. Align the red circle on the silver Lemo connector on the flying leads with the
red line on the connector on the top of the GK-404.
2. Insert the Lemo connector into the GK-404 until it locks into place (see
Figure 1).
3. Remove the flying leads before storing the GK-404 in the carrying case.
To connect the nylon strap to the carrying case, clip both ends of the strap onto
the plastic loops on the sides of the case.
Connect the neck strap to the GK-404 as follows:
1. Locate the plastic connector on the neck strap (see the figure below).
FIGURE 2: Neck Strap Connector
2. Place the larger circular hole onto the plastic nub on the back of the GK-404,
with the bottom of the connector to the right (see the figure below).
FIGURE 3: Connector on GK-404
3. Slide the connector all the way to the right, so that the nub on the back of
the GK-404 locks into the smaller hole of the connector.
4. Turn the connector clockwise until the bottom of the connector is pointing
down (see the figure below).

below).
FIGURE 5: Neck Strap Connections
2.2 CONNECTING A SENSOR
Attach the GK-404-1 flying leads to the bare leads of a GEOKON vibrating wire
sensor by connecting each of the clips on the leads to the matching colors of the
sensor conductors, with blue representing the bare shield wire.
GEOKON makes patch cables that enable the GK-404 to read sensors with
connectors attached to the readout cable.
2.3 CONNECTING A LOAD CELL
If a load cell cable has a readout cable connector attached, the GK-404 can
easily connect to it using a patch cable provided by GEOKON.
If the load cell cable does not have a connector, the leads of the load cell may be
connected directly to the flying leads from the GK-404. The individual leads can
be identified as shown in the wiring diagram in Table 1 below.
Each sensor is read in turn by connecting either the red or black clip to the lead
marked common. The black or red clip must be connected to the leads marked
#1, #2, #3, etc. The blue clip should be connected to the cable shield wire, and
the green and white clips to the cable leads marked thermistor.
1White's black and Green wires are switched on Geokon three gauge VW load cells prior to serial number 3313.

■The current Position, set by the Pos button, displayed as a letter, A - F.
■The current Reading, displayed as a numeric value, followed by the unit of
measure (set by the Mode button).
■Temperature reading of the attached gauge in degrees Celsius.
The GK-404 will continue to take measurements and display readings until the
unit is turned off, either manually, or if enabled, by the Auto-Off timer. See
Section 3.3 for information on the Auto-Off timer. To turn off the GK-404
manually, press and hold the On/Off button until Saving Settings is displayed,
then release the button. All user settings are stored at shut off and will be
restored the next time the GK-404 is turned on.

6| MAINTENANCE | GEOKON
4. MAINTENANCE
4.1 LOW BATTERY INDICATION AND AUTO-OFF
The GK-404 continuously monitors the status of the two 1.5V AA cells. When
their combined voltage drops to 2V, the message Batteries Low is displayed on
the screen. A fresh set of 1.5V AA batteries should be installed at this point. If
the battery voltage drops to 1.8V, the message REPLACE BATTERIES will be
displayed on the screen; the GK-404 will then shut off. All settings are still saved
in the internal nonvolatile memory.
4.2 BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Alkaline batteries are the best choice for use in the GK-404. A set of two 1.5V AA
batteries are installed in the GK-404 at the factory. To replace the batteries, use a
#1 Phillips screwdriver to remove the battery compartment cover located at the
back of the readout. Install a new set of batteries following the polarities
indicated inside the battery compartment. Reinstall the battery compartment
cover.
Never use two different types of batteries or mix old batteries with new. This
could cause batteries to leak and permanently damage the readout. Although
alkaline batteries are highly recommended, carbon zinc A batteries can be used.
4.3 CLEANING
A clean cloth can be used to wipe down the GK-404 Readout. No solvents
should be used as they may damage the case of the readout.
4.4 CALIBRATION
The readout should be sent periodically (every 12 months) to the manufacturer
for inspection, cleaning, and calibration. A nominal fee will be charged for the
service, but it is highly recommended.

5. TROUBLESHOOTING
Listed below are a few commonly experienced problems and remedial action.
Contact the factory should a problem arise not explained herein.
SYMPTOM: UNIT WILL NOT COME ON
□Internal batteries are either dead or installed backwards.
SYMPTOM: VIBRATING WIRE GAUGE MEASUREMENT SHOWS
DASHES
□Check alligator clip connections to vibrating wire gauge leads. if okay,
check gauge with ohmmeter. It should read between 90 and 180 ohms. If
gauge resistance is okay, check readout with another gauge. If it still does
not work, consult the factory to schedule return and repair of readout.
SYMPTOM: VIBRATING WIRE GAUGE READING UNSTABLE
□Improper position selected. Verify gauge model number against the
recommended setting (see Table 2 in Section 3.1). If position setting is
correct, the gauge is either marginal or there may be a strong source of
electromagnetic interference nearby.
SYMPTOM: THERMISTOR MEASUREMENT SHOWS DASHES
□Check alligator clip connections to thermistor leads. If okay, check
thermistor with ohmmeter. It should read between 10K ohms and 2.4K
ohms (0 to +30 degrees Celsius). If the thermistor checks out okay, consult
factory to schedule repair of readout. Note: dashes will display if no
Thermistor is connected.
SYMPTOM: DISPLAY SHOWS WEIRD CHARACTERS
□Switch the GK-404 to the ON setting while pushing the Cfg and Pos
buttons at the same time, to restore the unit to its factory default settings.
