Operating Instructions
Photo Tachometer Measurement
1. Slide the Function switch to the RPM (Photo) position
2. Place the reective marking (tape) to the object being measured
3. Press the Measure button and align the visible light beam with the
reective mark
4. Ensure that the Monitor indicator lights when the target passes
through the light beam
5. Release the Measure button when the reading stabilizes
(about 2 seconds)
In order to obtain greater accuracy for measurement of less than 50 RPM,
use 2 or 3 pieces of reective tape and then divide the reading with the
number of pieces used to calculate the nal gure.
Contact RPM Measurement
1. Slide the Function switch to RPM (Contact) position
2. Press the Measure button while lightly pressing the rotating
device
3. Release the Measure button when the reading stabilizes (approx.
2 seconds)
Contact Surface Speed Measurement
1. Slide the Function switch to m/min. (Surface Speed) or ft/min.
(Surface Speed)
2. Press the Measure button and simply attach the surface speed
test wheel to the detector
3. Release the Measure button when the reading stabilizes

procedures:
1. Press the Memory Call button once to display the last reading.
The symbol “LA” will appear on the display.
2. Press the Memory Call button once again to display the
maximum value. The symbol “UP” will appear on the display.
3. Press the Memory Call button once more to display the minimum
value. The symbol “DN” will appear on the display.
Battery Replacement
When the left corner of the LCD display shows LO BAT “ ”,
it indicates the battery output less than 4.5VCC and replacement of the
battery is then needed.
1. Open the Battery Cover at the back of meter and remove the
battery
2. Replace with 4 x 1.5 V AA/UM-3 batteries and reinstall the cover
