Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
I cannot turn off my meter, do you know why?
Often times, the meter cannot be turned off because it is in recording
mode("REC"mode).Makesuretoexitthatfunctionbyholdingdownthe
REC button before attempting to turn the meter off.
How long can I record for?
Battery life will depend on a number of factors:
-Quality of Battery
-Whether the beeper is ON or OFF
-Whether the backlight is ON or OFF
-Environmental Conditions during data logging
