The “Mode Setup” allows you to select only the

results needed for duct testing according to

code (2009 IECC).

Instead of doing calculations by hand, simply select the

mode you are required to produce and the DM-2 will do

the work for you.

● Press [

] to get to “Mode Setup”.

● Press [Enter].

The “Enable/Disable Mode” screen will list the various

modes the DM-2 will display. For Code duct testing,

most States require CFM per 100 sq. ft. of conditioned

floor area.

● Scroll down using [

] past “Pressure”, and

“Flow”. Below “Flow” is “@ Pressure”.

Press [Enter][25][Enter] to change this to 25 Pa.

● Scroll down using [

] to the next Mode, “EqLA”.

Press [Enter] or use [

] until “off” appears.

● Below “EqLA” is “@ Pressure”. Since EqLA was turned

“Off” in the previous step, “@ Pressure” can be left alone.

● Scroll down, turning the next few modes off until

the “Flow per Area.” Press [

] until “cfm/100ft

” is

selected.

Area” and press [Enter] [25] [Enter].
