ALARM INSTRUCTIONS (alarms are optional on most models)
SETTING THE HIGH/LOW ALARM
Press the MODE button until the unit is in the ALARM DISPLAY MODE indicated by the display
of current temperature and HI and LO alarm settings.
To set the HIGH temperature alarm limit, press the HI button to advance the display in 1° incre-
ments until the desired high temperature is displayed. Press and hold the HI button to rapidly
advance the display in 5° increments.
To set the LOW temperature alarm limit, press the LO button to advance the display in 1° incre-
ments until the desired low temperature is displayed. Press and hold the LO button to rapidly
advance the display in 5° increments.
ALARM
The unit will sound the alarm in both NORMAL DISPLAY MODE and ALARM DISPLAY MODE.
Slide the ALARM ON/OFF switch to ON. When the current temperature display rises above the
HI set point, or falls below the LO set point, the alarm will sound for 1 minute and issue a 3-
second repeater beep every minute thereafter, for up to 12 hours. The alarm will continue to sound even if the current
temperature display returns to an “in range” condition.
To temporarily silence the alarm, press either the HI or LO button on the back of the unit. The unit is still active and the alarm will
sound again if the temperature goes out of range. To permanently silence the alarm, slide the ALARM ON/OFF switch to the
OFF position.
OPERATION MODES
SUMMIT alarms have two operating modes: NORMAL DISPLAY MODE and ALARM DISPLAY MODE. To change from one
mode to another, press the MODE button once.
NORMAL DISPLAY MODE is indicated by the display of current temperature and the MIN (minimum) and MAX (maximum)
temperatures. These temperatures relate to external (probe) temperature if the probe is plugged in, and to ambient temperature
if the sensor probe is removed.
ALARM DISPLAY MODE is indicated by the display of current temperature and the HI and LO alarm settings. These
temperatures relate to external (probe) temperature if the probe is plugged in, and to ambient temperature if the sensor probe is
removed.
RESETTING THE UNIT
Use a pointed object to push the RESET button on the back of the unit. It is necessary to reset the unit whenever a change is
made to °C/°F temperature or FAST/NORMAL sampling rate, or if the probe sensor is plugged in or removed.
Note: HI/LO temperature alarm settings and MIN/MAX memories will be cleared after resetting the unit.
SELECTING THE SAMPLING RATE
To select normal sampling rate (60 seconds) or fast sampling rate (10 seconds), slide the switch on the back of the unit to
NORMAL or FAST.
Note: The unit must be reset after changing the sampling rate. Using the NORMAL sampling rate will extend battery life.
RESETTING MIN/MAX MEMORIES
There are two ways to reset the memories:
1. To reset both Minimum and Maximum memories, press the MEMORY CLEAR button.
2. To reset individual Minimum and Maximum memories, press either the MIN or MAX button (on back of unit) once to reset the
respective memory. The other memory will remain unaffected.
Note: You must be in Normal Display Mode to reset the memories.
