V. Operation Instructions:
4.1 Power-Up
Press the power button to turn the Humidity Temperature Meter ON or OFF.
4.2 Humidity and Temperature Measurement
For measurement, place the sensor probe in the tested environment.
4.3 Connection the Thermocouples ( T2 channel )
For measurement, plug the thermocouple probe into the input connector.
4.4 Selecting the Temperature Scale
When the meter was first power on, the default scale setting is set at Celsius (°C) scale. The user
may change it to Fahrenheit (°F) by pressing “ °F ” button and vice versa to Celsius by pressing
“ °C ” button.
4.5 Data-Hold Operation
The user may hold the present reading and keep it on the display by pressing the “HOLD” button.
When the held data is no longer needed, one may release the data-hold operation by pressing
“HOLD” button again.
When the meter is under Data Hold operation, the "MAX MIN" and “ °C “ “ °F ” “ UREL ” button are
disabled. (when you press “ °C “ “ °F ” “ UREL ” and "MAX MIN" button in HOLD mode, there will
be two continuous beeps)
4.6 MAX/MIN Operation:
When one press the "MAX MIN" button the meter will enter the MAX/MIN mode. Under this mode
the maximum value, minimum value is kept in the memory simultaneously and updated with every
new data.
When the MAX symbol is display, the Maximum is shown on the display.
Press "MAX MIN" again, then the MIN symbol is on the display and also the minimum reading.

Press "MAX MIN" again, MAX, and MIN will blink together. This means that all these data is updated
in the memory and the reading is the present temperature.
One may press "MAX MIN" to circulate the display mode among these options.
When the meter is under "MAX MIN" operation, “ °C “ “ °F ” “ UREL ” button are disabled.(when you
press “ °C “ “ °F ”“ UREL ” button in "MAX MIN" mode, there will be two continuous beep)
To exit the MAX/MIN mode, one may press and hold "MAX MIN" for two seconds.
4.7 Relative Operation:
When one press the“ UREL ” button, the meter will memorize the present reading and the
difference between the new reading and the memorized data will be shown on the display, Press the
“ UREL ” button again to exit the Relative operation. When the meter is under relative operation,
“ °C/°F ” button is disabled. ( when you press “ °C “ “ °F ” button in relative mode , there will be two
continuous beep )
4.8 Auto Power Off:
By default, when the meter is powered on, it is under auto power off mode. The meter will power
itself off after 30 minutes if no key operation and no RS232 communication.
Combination at power on can disable auto power off.
One may press and hold “HOLD” button and then power on the meter and there will be two
successive beeps to indicate that auto power off is disabled and the will not show up.
4.9 Low Battery Condition
When the battery voltage is under proper operation requirement, the symbol will show on the
LCD and the battery need to be replaced with new one.
4.10 Digital Output:
The Digital Output is a 9600bps N 81 serial interface.
1.Don’t touch or manipulate the sensor.
2.Don’t expose the sensor to direct light , this causes a false reading.
3.Don’t expose the sensor to static electricity.

VI .Calibration Procedure
Humidity Calibration:
1. Turn the unit off. Press and hold MAX/MIN, HOLD and °C keys. While these three keys are
pressed, turn the power on. Release these keys and all the segments on the LCD will blink.
2. After step one, within 3 seconds, the user have to press °F and REL key at the same time to
enter the calibration mode or the tester will go back to normal operation mode.
3. When the tester get into calibration mode, the humidity reading will blink and “CAL1” will appear
on the second display.
4. Insert the humidity probe into the standard humidity cavity of 32.8%RH@25°C. Wait until the
system to stabilize for 20 minutes then press MAX/MIN button to create the calibration data. If
the unit recognizes the value is out of tolerance, the unit will sound 2 beeps and still remain at
"CAL1”mode. If the tester recognizes the value is within tolerance, new calibration data is
created and the tester will go into “CAL2” mode, which will be indicated by “CAL2” at 2nd display.
5. Insert the humidity probe into the standard humidity cavity of 75.3%RH@25°C. Wait until the
system to stabilize for 20 minutes then press MAX/MIN button to create the calibration data. If
the unit recognizes the value is out of tolerance, the unit will sound 2 beeps and still remain at
"CAL2”mode. If the tester recognizes the value is within tolerance, new calibration data will be
written into the memory and the calibration is done.
Remark:
1. When the user perform the humidity calibration, the environment should be kept at the stable
condition (i.e. Constant temperature and constant humidity in the lab.) to in increase the
accuracy.
2. After the probe insert into the standard humidity cavity, the operator should wait at least 20
minutes to let the condition in the cavity to stabilize.
3. During the calibration, if the user press POWER button at any time, the tester will go back to
normal operation mode and no calibration data will be changed.
4. During the calibration mode, the user can restore the factory default value by press the HOLD
and °C buttons at the same time.
5. Because it takes some time to stabilize the system, we recommend the operator first insert the
probe into the 32.8%RH@25°C standard cavity and wait for at least 20 minutes, then power the
unit on and start the calibration process.
6. During the calibration, all the displayed reading is calibrated with the old calibration data and
the auto power function is disabled. Until the calibration process is done, the tester will enable
auto power function again.
7. During the calibration, the temperature is fixed at °F scale and it is not selectable.
T1 Temperature Calibration:
1. Turn the unit off. Press and hold MAX/MIN, HOLD and °C keys. While these three keys are
pressed, turn the power on. Release these keys and all the segments on the LCD will blink.
2. After step one, within 3 seconds, the user have to press °F and HOLD key at the same time to
enter the calibration mode or the tester will go back to normal operation mode.
3. When the tester get into calibration mode, the temperature reading will blink and “CAL1” will
appear on the second display.

4. Insert the probe into standard chamber of 0°C(32°F) and wait the system to stabilize for 20
minutes. Press MAX/MIN button to create the calibration data. If the tester recognizes the data
is within the tolerance, it will go to “CAL2” mode or it will sound 2 beeps and remain at “CAL1”
mode.
5. Insert the probe into standard chamber of 40°C(104°F) and wait the system to stabilize for 20
minutes. Press MAX/MIN button to create the calibration data. If the tester recognizes the data
is within the tolerance, it will write the calibration data into the memory and leave the calibration
mode. If the tester recognizes the calibration data is out of tolerance it will beep 2 times and
remain at “CAL2” mode.
Remarks:
1. After the probe is in the calibration cavity, wait at least 20 minutes to stabilize the system.
2. During the calibration, the user can leave the process by pressing the POWER button at any
time and the calibration data will be kept unchanged.
3. During the calibration mode, the user can restore the factory default value by press the HOLD
and °C buttons at the same time.
4. Because it take some time to stabilize the system, we recommend the operator first insert the
probe into the 0°C standard cavity and wait for at least 20 minutes, then power the unit on and
start the calibration process.
5. During the calibration, all the displayed reading is calibrated with the old calibration data and
the auto power function is disabled. Until the calibration process is done, the tester will enable
auto power function again.
6. During the calibration, the temperature scale is fixed at °F and it is not selectable.
