Specifikacijos

Sąranka

1. Akumuliatoriaus įdėjimas

1. Suraskite baterijų skyriaus dangtelį įrenginio gale.
2. Norėdami atidaryti skyrių, pastumkite arba atkabinkite dangtelį.
3. Įdėkite tris (3) 1.5 V AAA baterijas, užtikrindami teisingą poliškumą (+/-), kaip nurodyta skyriaus viduje.
4. Saugiai uždėkite akumuliatoriaus skyriaus dangtelį.

2. Įjungimas/išjungimas

• Norėdami įjungti įrenginį, paspauskite Maitinimo mygtukas (usually marked with a ⑂ symbol) located on the front panel.
• Įrenginys automatiškai išsijungs maždaug po 5 minučių neveiklumo, kad taupytų akumuliatoriaus veikimo laiką.
• Norėdami rankiniu būdu išjungti, paspauskite ir palaikykite Maitinimo mygtukas kol ekranas išsijungs.

Naudojimo instrukcijos

1. Bendrieji matavimai

1. Įsitikinkite, kad įrenginys įjungtas.
2. Place the back of the meter (the sensor area) flat against the surface of the material you wish to measure. Ensure full contact for accurate readings.
3. The moisture reading will be displayed on the LCD screen.

2. Režimo pasirinkimas

The meter offers four measurement modes. Press the MODE mygtukas to cycle through them:

• SOFTWOOD Mode: For various types of softwood.
• HARDWOOD Mode: For various types of hardwood.
• WALL Mode: For plaster, concrete, and similar wall materials.
• MASONRY Mode: For brick, stone, and other masonry materials.

3. Softwood Density Adjustment

In SOFTWOOD Mode, you can adjust the density grade for more accurate readings based on the specific wood type. Press the DEN/SET button to cycle through the 9 available density grades. Refer to the 'Softwood Density Grades' table below for guidance.

4. Laikymo funkcija

To lock the current moisture reading on the display, press the HOLD mygtukas. This is useful for taking readings in hard-to-reach areas. Press the button again to release the hold and resume live readings.

5. Visual and Audible Alarm

The meter provides both visual and audible alerts if the detected moisture level exceeds a predefined threshold for the selected material mode. The analog bar on the LCD will turn red, and an audible beep will sound, indicating high moisture content.

Priežiūra

• Valymas: Prietaisą valykite minkštu, sausu skudurėliu. Nenaudokite abrazyvinių valiklių ar tirpiklių.
• Saugykla: Matuoklį laikykite vėsioje, sausoje vietoje, toliau nuo tiesioginių saulės spindulių ir ekstremalių temperatūrų. Jei ilgesnį laiką laikysite, išimkite baterijas, kad išvengtumėte pratekėjimo.
• Baterijos keitimas: Kai ekrane pasirodys išsikrovusio akumuliatoriaus indikatorius, pakeiskite baterijas, kad užtikrintumėte tikslius rodmenis.
• Venkite drėgmės: While designed to measure moisture, the device itself is not waterproof. Avoid exposing it to excessive moisture or submerging it in liquids.

Trikčių šalinimas

• Įrenginys neįsijungia: Patikrinkite, ar baterijos įdėtos teisingai ir nėra išsikrovusios. Jei reikia, pakeiskite baterijas.
• Netikslūs rodmenys: Ensure the sensor area is in full contact with the material. Verify that the correct measurement mode (e.g., SOFTWOOD, HARDWOOD, WALL, MASONRY) is selected for the material being tested. For softwood, ensure the correct density grade is set.
• Ekranas tuščias arba mirga: Low battery could be the cause. Replace batteries. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
• No audible alarm: Check if the alarm function is enabled (if applicable) or if the moisture level is below the alarm threshold.
