PRECAUTIONS AND PREPARATIONS FOR
MEASUREMENT
1. Before operating this instrument, please examine it
to make sure no shipping damage occurs. Otherwise
notify your dealer.
2. Save all packing materials until you are sure that this
unit can normally operate.
3. Be sure that batteries are correctly placed in the case
or adaptive 9V Adaptor is in correct connection.
4. An unsecured battery cover will cause error
measuring.
5. To avoid battery leakage problem, remove batteries if
this meter will not be used for a long time.
6. Do not use or store this meter outside the operating/
storage environment.
OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. This meter can be supplied with batteries or DC 9V
AC Adaptor. If using batteries:
Remove the rear cover, and install batteries, pay
attention to the polarity of battery socket. If using 9V
Adaptor, make sure that it is in good connection to
the Adaptor socket of the meter. Choose the K-type
temperature probe for your application and insert it
into T2 the temperature probe socket. Insert Humidity/
Temperature (T1) probe into T1 the meter socket.
2. Press the button to power on the meter, the current
date and time will display about 3 seconds. If “---“ ap-
pears, it indicates no probe or the probe is broken.
3. T1 indicates room temperature, T2 indicates K-type
thermocouple test value.
4. Printing date:
Press [PRINT] one time to print one set date.
If need continuous printing, press and hold down
PRINT button, until LCD display “INTV” mark and
enter continuous interval printing mode, the printer will
print data as follows:
INTV 00:06 Interval printing time, minute : second
10:55:19 08-16 Printing time, hour:minute:second,
month:day
62.7 %RH Humidity test value and unit.

Press [PRINT] or [FEED] key to exit printing mode.
 When the meter is powered on, if the printing function
setting is “ON”, and now time is interval printing start
time, the meter will enter to continuous interval print-
ing mode and start printing.
* Press (PRINT) or (FEED) key to exit printing mode.
* The interval printing function worked only when the
start printing time is earlier than the stop printing time,
and interval print time can not be longer than
24 hours.
Caution: Before printing, please check thermo-paper is
not clipped by thermo-paper cover, if anything interrupts
the printer, the mater will shut off the printer power, and
“ ” symbol flickers.
SETTING MODE
Press “ ” button to enter setting function, re-press this
button can select setting parameters in circle (printer
on or off, interval printing time, start printing time and
calendar setting). The modifier parameter will flicker until
