Wrong connections can cause malfunction and/or damage. Prior to turn the power ON, read
this Userʼs Manual carefully, configure each instrument in the following sequence.
1．Connect the probe fixing jig
2．Connect the probe
3．Connect the power cable
4．Connect the analog unit
5．Connect the analog output
6．Install the PC software
7．Connect the PC

Connecting the probe fixing jig
Only the probes 0976-03 and 0976-04, 0976-13, 0976-14 can be used to anchor the
probes with the probe fixing jig. Do not use any other probe. Otherwise, malfunction or
damage may occur.
How to mount/remove the probe to/from the fixing jig, follow the procedure below.
When mounting/removing the probe, do not allow the sensor of the probe to touch the
probe fixing jig or surrounding objects. Do not touch the sensor of the probe with your
hand. Otherwise, malfunction or damage may occur.
■Mounting the probe
Place the part of the probe, which is in the red frame as the figure below, on the probe
fixing jig and push the probe until you feel a click.
■Removing the probe
Hold the part of the cable, which is in the red frame as the figure below, and move the
holding part of the cable in the direction of the probe sensor (left photo). After that, hold
the part of the probe, which is in the red frame, and pull up the holding part from the
probe fixing jig to remove (right photo).
The mounting angle can change due to the probe tension.
If its angle changes, adjust the mounting angle if needed.

To mount the probe fixing jig to a setting place, use a sticky tape such an adhesion tape
as a double-faced tape.
To mount the probe fixing jig to a columnar object, as the figure shows below, attach the
supplied base to the probe fixing jig and fix them with such a band as a plastic tie.
Connecting the probe
For the probe-to-hub unit connection, connect the probe connector (CH1 to CH12) of the
hub unit and the connector of the probe converter box with the standard cable (option).
Be sure to insert the cable until you can hear a click sound so as to make a normal
communication.

To disconnect the standard cable (option), as the figure shows below, push and hold
the release buttons, and remove the cable from the connector.
Connecting the power source
Be sure to supply power to the unit with the 90W AC adapter (the accessory of the main
unit). Do not use any AC adapter and/or cable other than the accessories of the main unit
and designated options. Otherwise, malfunction and/or damage may occur.
When the units are connected with the connecting connector, power is also shared among
the units. This means that power is supplied from every connected unit. Be sure to connect
the power to the one unit only. Do not connect any other power connector to any other
unit.
If multiple units are supplied power simultaneously, electrical collision occurs inside
the units. Malfunction and/or damage may occur not only in the unit, but also other
connected power source devices. This is dangerous. Do not supply power to the
multiple units.

When connecting the AC adapter to the unit, as the figure shows below, the orientation of
the AC adapter should be the same with the solid-lined figure of the DC power supply
terminal on the unit. Be sure to insert the AC adapter in the right orientation until you feel
a click.
Supplying power using the DC power cable (option)
Power can be supplied using the DC power cable (option) if you don't use the AC adapter.
However, the DC power cable sold separately is needed to be prepared by a user.
(DC power: 12 to 24 V)
The orientations should be matched.
Red：＋V

Connecting the analog unit
By connecting the analog unit (Model: 1592-0G) of the Multi-Channel Anemomaster PRO,
the analog output of measurement data from a connected probe becomes possible. Up to
3 analog units can be connected.
Using the connecting connector, connect the Multi-Channel Anemomaster Main Unit and
the analog unit. Be sure to insert each unit as far as it will go.
Be sure to turn off the power to the Multi-Channel Anemomaster Main Unit and connected
analog unit(s) and remove the AC adapter before changing the number of the connected
analog(s). Changing the unit connection while turning the power on may cause failure
and/or breakage.
Using the unit fixing clip (option), units can be connected firmly.
As the figure below, insert the clip into each insertion port of adjacent units.
To disconnect the connected units, remove this clip first.
