METER USE
BASIC AND ENHANCED MODES:
MoistureCheck may be used as a BASIC meter, which allows the user to begin taking readings
in either the scan mode or pin mode, without having to set up a job definition. BASIC mode does
not allow for data collection and is the default mode of the meter upon power up.
Or, MoistureCheck may be used in ENHANCED mode, which requires the user to set job
definitions and materials for each location within a job. The meter also stores each reading in
ENHANCED mode to allow for on screen reading recall or download to a PC.
USING THE METER IN BASIC MODE:
MoistureCheck is shipped from the factory set to BASIC mode. Use this option if you wish to use
the meter for scan or pin readings without having to set up a job.
Although Basic Mode does not allow for data acquisition, it does allow the user to set the type of
material being tested, and set the alarm to sound if a pre-established %MC is exceeded.
TO TAKE PIN READINGS IN BASIC MODE:
1. From the BASIC Main Menu, use the ò key to highlight PIN MODE. Then, use the
SELECT key to enter the pin mode.
2. The meter will display the main %MC READ screen, as shown below:
