■ RS-232 Transmission Agreements
※Please connect theAC Adaptor if it required a long time to transfer the data.
RS-232 is for one-way data transfer, receive and input the signal by three
grounded wires. Recommending using the transmission line which is
manufacture by OE factory or shorter than 10 meters of cable to connect the
computer and the instrument.
Transfer rate: 57600

D. Cable illustrated
■ Precautions
1. This instrument has a waterproof function; please do not use it in a high temperature
environment or with corrosive materials to avoid leakage or damage.
2. Proposed to use the company's original signal cable (sold separately) to avoid the
instrument inability to communicate to computer.
3. If you want to get a more accurate measurement value, keep a moment to let the
temperature uniform and steady when measuring.
4. When the instrument shows power shortages, please replace the battery immediately.
5. When the device will not be used in a long time, please set the device and all accessories
into the protective case, stored in a dry place, and avoid exposure to sunlight directly.
6. If there are any operation questions or malfunction, please contact your local distributor or
our service department.
