of the HI-3616 no longer responds; replace both batteries.

The data link between the HI-3604 and the HI-3616 is a plastic

fiber cable. While the fiber optic cable is generally very durable,

avoid sharp bends in the cable and avoid placing the cable under

tension (do not pull on it). Because the data is transferred by

light pulses, the ends of the cable must be kept clean and

undamaged. Use the plastic caps provided to protect the cable

ends when not in use.

With the HI-3616 connected and operating, the ELF meter may

be located as required for a reading and the value measured

observed on the display of the HI-3616. When characterizing

exposure the HI-3604 may be positioned at various locations

without interference from the instrument user (surveyor).

When not in use, the HI-3616 should be turned OFF. Refer to

the maintenance instructions in section 6.0 regarding removal

of batteries when the instrument will not be used for long

periods of time.

Using the Recorder Output

The HI-3616 includes a 3.5 mm stereo jack, located on the

bottom of the unit, used for the recorder output signal. This

signal is a DC voltage proportional to the indicated field value.

It is a 0-4 VDC signal with the four volt level representing a "full

scale" indication. The field value represented by the output

signal depends on the setting of the range switch. The output

drives a load of 5,000 ohms or more.
