4.2 Numeric keypad

It may happen that a numerical entry has to be made; for example, when entering the storage

interval. To enter this function, each key changes its function to a specific numeric key. For each

entry, all four cells must always be completed. A comma key is also available for volume flow

measurement.

5 Switching the meter on and off

To switch the meter on and off, press and hold the on/off key for at least two seconds.

5.1 Automatic power off

If no entry is made within five minutes after switching on, the meter switches itself off. To

deactivate this function, hold down the Enter key when switching on and switch on the meter. The

display shows "no" The automatic power off function is now deactivated. Now release all keys to

make a measurement. The automatic power off function always reactivates as soon as the meter

is switched off.

6 Making a measurement

To make a measurement, align the flow sensor with the direction of the flow. An arrow on the

head of the sensor indicates the orientation in relation to the wind flow. Wait for at least two

seconds for the reading to stabilise.

6.1 Beaufort scale

The Beaufort scale is always active and shows the current wind force category

Wind force

Designation of the wind force

Designation of the sea state

(wind sea)

Calm

Completely calm, smooth sea

Light air

Light breeze

Mildly agitated sea

Gentle breeze

Moderate breeze

Slightly agitated sea

Fresh breeze

Moderately agitated sea

Strong breeze

Rough sea

Near gale

Very rough sea

Gale

Moderately high seas

Strong gale

High seas

Storm

Violent storm

Heavy sea

Hurricane

Exceptionally heavy sea

6.2 Setting the flow unit

To set the unit of the flow velocity, press the "UNIT" key. You can choose

between m/s, km/h, ft/min, knots and mps. The default setting is m/s.

6.3 Setting the temperature unit

To set the temperature unit displayed, press and release "°C/°F" once. You

can choose between °C and °F. The default setting is °C.

7 Volume flow measurement

For a volume flow measurement, first press the "VEL/FLOW" key

to select between velocity and volume flow measurement. This is

signalled by "VEL" (speed measurement) and "FLOW" (volume

flow measurement) on the display. Depending on the entered

area and the measured wind flow, the measured value can also

be significantly higher than it is possible to display. In this case,

"x100" or "x10" is displayed next to the measured value. The

measured value in the display must then be multiplied by 100 or

10 accordingly.

7.1 Setting the unit of the volume flow measurement

To select the unit FT³ or m³, press and release the "UNIT" key

once.

Hint:

The function also has an effect on the area specification.
