4. GENERAL MEASURING
PROCEDURE
The meter default value are :
*The temperature reading unit is .℃
*The power management is set to auto power
off.
4-1 Humidity and Temperature measurement
1)Plug the " Probe Plug " ( 3-8, Fig. 1 ) into the " Probe
Input Socket " ( 3-7, Fig. 1 ).
2)Power on the meter by pressing the " Power Button "
( 3-2, Fig. 1 ), the LCD shows the unit " %RH " & " "℃
at the same time and measured value will show on
the display ( upper display is Humidity value, the
lower display is the temperature value ) .
3)The meter Temp. display unit is defaulted to " ". If℃
intend to let the meter's temperature unit default to " "℉
, then please refer section 5-1 ( page 9 ).
4-2 Dew point measurement
The procedures of " Dew point measurement " are same
as the above " 4-1 Humidity and Temperature
measurement " except select the " Dew point " function
by pressing the " Function Button " ( 3-5, Fig. 1 ) once,
the LCD will show the unit " DEW " & " ( or ).℃℉
The upper display show the Dew point value, the lower
display show the temperature value.

4-3 Data Hold
During the measurement, press the " Hold Button " ( 3-3,
Fig. 1 ) once will hold the measured value & the LCD will
display a " HOLD " symbol.
* Press the " Hold Button " once again will release the data
hold function.
4-4 Data Record ( Max., Min. reading )
* The data record function records the maximum and
minimum readings. Press the " REC Button " ( 3-4, Fig.
1 ) once to start the Data Record function and there
will be a " REC. " symbol on the display.
* With the " REC. " symbol on the display :
a)Press the " REC Button " ( 3-4, Fig. 1 ) once, the
" REC. MAX. " symbol along with the maximum value
will appear on the display.
If intend to delete the maximum value, just press
the " Hold Button " ( 3-3, Fig. 1 ) once, then the
display will show the " REC. " symbol only & execute
the memory function continuously.
b)Press the " REC Button " ( 3-4, Fig. 1 ) again, the
" REC. MIN. " symbol along with the minimum value
will appear on the display.
If intend to delete the minimum value, just press
the " Hold Button " ( 3-3, Fig. 1 ) once, then
the display will show the " REC. " symbol only &
execute the memory function continuously.
c)To exit the memory record function, just press the
" REC " button for 2 seconds at least. The display will
revert to the current reading.

marker.
a.Hold the " Set Button " ( 3-11, Fig. 1 ) at least two
seconds until the lower display show " COde ", then
release the " Set Button ", the upper display will show
" 1000 ".

function to " ", then one by one to press the "℉
Function Button " ( 3-5, Fig. 1 ) a while will determine
the default Temp. unit to or℃℉
@Press the " Function Button ", if the upper display value
show " 0 ", the default Temp. unit is ℃
@Press the " Function Button ", if the upper display value
show " 1 ", the default Temp. unit is .℉
After the function is determined, press the " Enter Button "
( 3-4, Fig. 1 ) to confirm and save the selection data into
memory IC permanently. Press the " Esc Button " ( 3-3.
Fig. 1 ) will revert to normal display screen.

" ( 3-4, Fig. 1 ) to save the selection function into
memory IC permanently. Press the " Esc Button " ( 3-3.
Fig. 1 ) will revert to normal display screen.
7. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
1)
When the left corner of LCD display show " ", it
is necessary to replace the battery. However, in-spec.
measurement may still be made for several hours after
low battery indicator appears before the instrument
become inaccurate.
2)Slide the " Battery Cover " ( 3-6, Fig. 1 ) away from the
instrument and remove the battery.
3)Replace with 9V battery ( Alkaline or Heavy duty type )
and reinstate the cover.
