eye” indicates you are receiving valid data. Above 200 RPM wait for three updates of
the display for the instrument to stabilize. At lower speeds, a few additional updates may
be required for the instrument to initially “lock on”. Once a measurement is complete,

display for approximately 90 seconds and then the instrument automatically times out
and shuts off. The operative speed range is from 5 to 100,000 RPM when using a
