Probe Zero Disk & Battery Cover
Refer to Diagram: The Battery cover is the large round disk shown in the diagram.
Note: This same disk is also used as a probe zero disk. Simply remove the cover
when replacing the batteries (3 AA cells). When performing a probe zero function,
simply place the transducer on the disk making firm contact.
Important: Be sure to follow the polarity labels located on the back label of the PVX.
Note: Rechargeable batteries can be used, however they must be recharged outside
of the unit in a stand alone battery charger.
RS-232 Connector
Refer to Diagram: The RS-232 connector, located on the bottom end cap, is a 2 pin
female Lemo connector. It is designed to connect directly from the PVX to a
standard AT serial port on a PC. The cable supplied with the PVX is a Lemo to 9 pin
serial cable. Note: This connector is also used to upgrade the PVX with the latest
version of firmware.
