– PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
The following application notes are intended for use with the meter in PIN MODE.
TESTING WOOD:
The contact pins provided are best for materials up to 6/4. On materials over 6/4 or for
hardwoods over 4/4 we recommend using a remote probe such as the 26-ES ram-type
electrode. Mount the 26-ES directly to the external connector.
