Error “Too hot” :
The FLASH continously
checks the power meter head’s
temperature. If the temperature exceeds the specification
(65
o
C or 75°C), the graphic bar of the thermometer will be
full, the red LED will blink and the FLASH will alternately
display « HOT » and the lastest measurement. No further
measurement is permitted as long as the device is in this
error state. To exit this error, let the power meter head cool
down.
Turning off the device, does not remove the error state.
Do not immerse the detector head’s in water
(see page II : Warranty)

Error “Over range” :
If the FLASH is used to measure a power more that 5% over
its maximum range, or if the maximum temperature (65
o
C or
75
o
C) is reached during the measure, « Err » will appear.
Accordingly, the display will alternate between « Err » and
« Hot » if the temperature exceeds (65
o
C).
Also the red LED will light up instead of the green LED at
the end of the measurement.
The last valid measure is kept in nonvolatile memory until a new
valid one is taken. To exit this error, perform a new
measurement or turn off the FLASH and turn it back on.. The
head of the FLASH must also cool down if the maximum
temperature has been reached.
