initial setup or when the lithium battery used to back up
the RAM needs replacement (every 1-2 years depending
on the environmental conditions under which the HHC

chased with data logging option. Time/date information
is not maintained in HHC units without data log option.
Section 3.4.5 Input of Owner/Operator Information
The HHC has the ability to display, on power up, the
name of the individual, department or company respon-

with your instrument at the time of shipment. Use the
number keys on the HHC to enter the Owner Access
Code from left to right.
Access code?

Note: Two passwords were provided with your HHC.
One password provides access to the owner program-

certain to select the correct password. These passwords
are not interchangeable.
If, at any time during the entry process you enter a
number in error, press the CE key to clear the entry and
restart the access code entry process.
If the password codes have been lost, contact your
calibrator supplier. The serial number of the base unit

To restart the entry process after the “access denied”
response re-enter the owner set up function through the
setup menu.

will read:
Enter owner name

To enter a new owner name use the up and down arrows
to scroll through the alphanumeric entries and the left
and right arrows to move the active entry field (cursor)
to the next location.
A blank can be inserted by using the down arrow with
the letter A flashing on the display. Continuing to press
the down arrow after the blank appears will provide
access to numerical values starting at 9 and decreasing
to 0. The label may contain alphabetical, numerical or a
combination of both types of entries.

By pressing and releasing the up/down arrow a single
step from letter or number can be accomplished.
The left/right arrow keys allow for entry of alpha
