SHORT INSTRUCTION MANUAL
General description
The CP11 is an accurate hand-held datalogger that displays & records relative humid-
ity, temperature, CO
2 and calculated parameters such as dew point and wet bulb.
These short instructions are limited to a description of the main functions and installa-
tion of the device. The detailed instruction manual can be found on the internet at
www.rotronic-humidity.com
Programming
Most of the settings, such as memory clear, CO 2 alarm, units( C/ F), sampling rate,
pressure compensation and real time clock can be changed using the function keys.

ALARM
The meter features audible alarm to give warnings when CO 2 concentration exceeds
the limit. (See “Meter Setup” section for setting alarm threshold). It emits beeps (Abt.
80dB) when CO
2 level goes over the set value and stops only when the readings
fall below the set value. It beeps again when value goes over the limit.
The meter turns off automatically after 20 minutes of inactivity.
To override the function, first, the meter is in power off status.
Hold down and for 2 seconds to turn on the meter until
“n” appears.(Fig.14)

Humidity Calibration
This meter can be calibrated either via 35% & 80% salt bottle or humidity generator.
o The ambient condition is recommended as stable 25 C. While the meter is powered
off, plug the sensor probe into 35% salt. Press , , simultaneously for 3
seconds to turn on the meter and enter calibration mode. Press or to select
35.0% calibration and press to start. “CAL” and calibrating value are blinking on
the LCD.
CAUTION:
Do not calibrate the humidity without the default calibration salt. Otherwise,
it will cause permanent damage. Contact ROTRONIC for calibration salt or
services.
Single point calibration will cause error code E11 or non accurate reading.
Always do dual point calibration to complete a process. Suggest to calibrate
low humidity first.
CO2 Calibration
CAUTION:
Do not calibrate the meter in the air with unknown CO concentration.
2
Otherwise, it will be calibrated as 0 or 400ppm by default and leads to
inaccurate measurements.
Ensure the batteries are with full voltage during the calibration to prevent from
interruption or failed calibration. When the accuracy becomes a concern after
a long time usage, return to dealers for standard calibration.
