Important Note : The meter’s probe locking switch must
be in the locked position (with the probe inserted) for
the meter to turn on and operate correctly. Refer to the
accompanying diagram or the diagram at the top of the
meter for switch orientation.
For the best accuracy and for proper operation, the

most recently selected unit of measure for air velocity.
4. To change the temperature units of measure (C/F), use the advanced programming
mode discussed later in this manual.
5. Momentary presses of the UNIT button changes the air velocity units. The LCD will
reflect the selection.
6. Place the sensor cover in the up (ZERO) position (see diagram below).
7. Open the telescoping sensing antenna to a convenient length.
8. Place the sensor in the area to be measured and allow a short time for it to stabilize to
the ambient temperature.
