Operation

Power

Press the power button “ “ to turn power on or off.

%RH

1. To select %RH measurement, press the “%RH/GPP/g/Kg” button.

2. Hold the probe in the area to be tested.

3. Allow adequate time for readings to stabilize.

4. The Relative Humidity measurement appears in the top display.

5. Pressing the “°F/°C/WBT/Dew Point” button toggles the lower

display between Temperature (°F), Temperature (°C), Dew Point

(°C), Dew Point (°F), Wet Bulb (°C) and Wet Bulb (°F).

Mixing Ratio (Grains Per Pound or Grams Per Kilograms)

1. To select GPP or g/kg measurement, press the “%RH/GPP/g/Kg”

button.

2. Hold the probe in the area to be tested.

3. Allow adequate time for readings to stabilize.

4. The GPP or g/Kg measurement appears in the top display.

5. Pressing the “°F/°C/WBT/Dew Point” button toggles the lower

display between Temperature (°F), Temperature (°C), Dew Point

(°C), Dew Point (°F), Wet Bulb (°C) and Wet Bulb (°F).

Dew Point

1. To select the Dew Point measurement, press the “°F/°C/WBT/Dew

Point” button until DEWPOINT (°F or °C) appears in the lower

right.

2. Dew Point temperature is now displayed.

Wet Bulb

1. To select the Wet Bulb measurement, press the “°F/°C/WBT/Dew

Point” button until WET BULB

(°F or °C) appears in the lower right.

2. Wet Bulb temperature is now displayed.

Temperature

1. To select the temperature measurement, press the

“°F/°C/WBT/Dew Point” button until “°C” or “°F” appears in the

lower right.

2. Temperature is now displayed.

Data Hold

1. Press the ”H MAX MIN” button momentarily to freeze the displayed

readings. ”HOLD” will appear on the upper left-hand side of the

display.

2. Press the ”H MAX MIN” button three more times to return to normal

operation. (Steps through MAX and MIN)

Minimum (MIN) Maximum (MAX) Function

The MIN/MAX mode allows the user to view only the lowest (MIN) or highest (MAX) readings.

1. Press the ”H MAX MIN” button twice and “MIN” appears on the display. The LCD is now

displaying the minimum value recorded in both the top and bottom display. The display will not

change until a lower reading is registered.

2. Press the ”H MAX MIN” button again and “MAX” appears on the

display. The LCD is now displaying the maximum value recorded

in both the top and bottom display. The display will not change

until a higher reading is registered.

3. To exit the MIN/MAX mode, press the ”H MAX MIN” button again.

The “MAX” icon will disappear.

Note: Max and Min values are recorded into memory while the meter is

on. The values are erased when power is turned off.

Backlight

Press and hold the light button “ “ until the backlight turns on. To turn the backlight off, press and

hold the light button “ until the backlight turns off.
