If the device will probably not be needed for a relatively long period of time or if the batteries
are empty, remove the batteries; this will prevent battery acid leaking onto the device and
damaging it.
Rechargeable batteries should be recharged as and when necessary.
You should never attempt to recharge an ordinary (non-rechargeable) battery; it may
explode !
Batteries / rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited or thrown onto the fire.
Batteries / rechargeable batteries are special waste and must not be discarded together with
normal domestic waste.
4 Introduction
The HI 1 is equipped with a patented connector system. The intelligent connector offers decisive advantages when
connecting sensors and peripherals because all parameters are stored in an EEPROM located on the connector
itself; repeat programming is thus no longer necessary.
4.1 Function
The HI 1 measuring instrument has just one measuring input. For operation purposes the device incorporates a
large LCD display and a keypad.
4.2 Sensor programming
The measuring channels are programmed, completely and automatically, by the intelligent connectors.
5 Initial commissioning
1. Connect sensor to socket M0 (1).
2. Ensure that the power supply is provided by 3 AA batteries;
3. To switch ON press key ON (3)
4. Select measuring channels by pressing key M▲(3), read out measured values (5e)
5. Save the measured value by pressing key MEM (3)
6. Relative measuring to a reference value by pressing key CLR (3)
Revert to normal measured value by pressing and holding down key CLR
7. Evaluating a measuring operation
Call up maximum / minimum values by pressing keys MAX / MIN (3)
To delete max. / min. value(s) press and hold down key MAX or MIN see

Manual
6 Power supply
Power can be supplied to the measuring instrument with 3 AA alkaline batteries (included in delivery)
6.1 Battery operation and supply voltage monitoring
Power is supplied to the measuring instrument as delivered by 3 AA batteries. At a current consumption of approx.
10 mA the operating time will be approx. 250 hours. The current operating voltage is displayed each time the the
device is switched on; this gives you a basis for estimating the remaining operating time. When the remaining
battery capacity drops to approx. 10 percent, the LOBAT arrow will appear in the display. If the batteries are
completely discharged the device will switch off. To replace old batteries first unscrew the battery compartment
cover on the rear of the device.
6.2 Switching ON / OFF, reinitialisation
To switch the device ON briefly press and release the key ON OFFr (3) in the middle of the keypad; to switch the
device, OFF press and hold down the key ON OFFr. After the device is switched off all saved values and settings
are retained intact.
If interference (e.g. electrostatic) or a malfunction (e.g. battery failure) causes the device to behave abnormally, the
device can be reinitialized. To activate RESET press and hold down the key CLR r when switching on. This will
restore all settings to the factory default status. Only the programming of the sensors in the intelligent connectors
remains unaffected.
6.3 Data buffering
The sensor's programming is stored in the EEPROM on the sensor connector and the device's calibration and
programmed parameters are stored in the EEPROM on the instrument itself, both on a fail-safe basis.
7 Connecting the sensors
Only the special intelligent sensors can be connected to input socket M0 (1). Attempting to connect any other
sensor here will trigger an error message.
All suitable sensors with the special intelligent connector have the measuring range and units already programmed
and can thus be connected to the input socket without further adjustment. A mechanical coding system ensures
that sensors and output modules can only be connected to the correct sockets. All connectors incorporate two
snap-lock levers; these snap into position as soon as the connector is inserted into the socket, thus preventing
unintended disconnection if the cable is accidentally pulled. To withdraw the connector, both these levers must be
pressed in at the sides.

8.3 Peak value memory
From the measured values acquired for each measuring point the highest and the
lowest values are continuously recorded. To display these high/low peak values
first the desired channel must be set and then the MAX or MIN key must be
pressed. As a check the display also includes the associated symbol.
To display the maximum value press key : MAX .
To display the minimum value press key : MIN .
To delete the maximum value press and hold down key : MAX .
To delete the minimum value press and hold down key : MIN .
To return to the measuring point display press key : M▲ .
As soon as you clear the memory, the current measured value will appear (because measuring is continuous).
8.4 Measured value memory
On the HI 1 any measured value can be saved.
To save the measured value press key : MEM .
The value most recently saved then appears in the function field preceded by the
symbol ´M´.
To return to the channel display press key : M▲ .
8.5 Relative measuring
One very useful function is to zero the measured value at certain locations or at certain times as a reference value
in order then to observe only the subsequent deviations. This function is independent of the locking status and
does not modify the programming parameters in the connector.
To zero-set the measured value press key : CLR .
To display relative measuring press arrow : REL.
To return to normal measured value press and hold down key : CLR .
Setting to zero automatically deletes the maximum and minimum values for this channel. The MAX, MIN,
and MEM functions are thus also available for relative measurement.
