Check-up

1. Before use

Carefully unpack your kit and ensure that you have

the following items. In case that any item is missing or

if you find any mismatch or damage, promptly contact

your dealer.

Maintenance and warranty

Maintenance:

1). Replacement and upkeep of battery:

a. After power on, if an icon appears on the LCD,

you need to replace the battery immediately, for details

please refer figures and contents on page 9 of this

manual.

b. Remove the battery from the unit if it is not required for

extended periods of time in order to avoid damage to

the battery compartment and the erosion resulting

from a battery leakage.

2. Do not store or use the unit in following circumstances:

a. Splashes of water or high levels of dust.

b. Air of high salt or sulphur content.

c. Air mixed with other gases or contents.

d. High temperature or humidity (above50℃, 90%,) or

direct sunlight.

3. Do not disassemble the unit or attempt any internal

alterations.

4. Never use alcohol or diluents to clean the housing

for doing that will especially erode the LCD surface;

just clean the unit lightly as needed with little clean

water.

for 7 seconds upon the button operations.

2). Measurement data

3). High frequency indication

4). 1KHZ indication

5). Low frequency indication

6). Battery mark shows current residual battery

power. Has following 5 levels:

:battery is sufficient

:battery is comparative sufficient

:battery is nearly deficient

:battery is nearly exhausted, need to have a

replacement

:battery is exhausted completely.

7). When taking measurement of acceleration, the 2

LCD displays the acceleration unit: m/s

8). When taking measurement of velocity, the LCD

displays the velocity unit: mm/s;

When taking measurement of displacement, the

LCD displays the displacement unit: mm.

b. When the key is pressed again, the current value

will be canceled, and a new measurement can be

preformed.

Note:

a. Using short Probe (S) can take measurement of

vibration both in high(HI) and low(LO) frequency.

b. Long Probe (L) is only suitable for low frequency

measurement. When taking velocity measurement,

also the frequency is over 1KHZ, please replace

with the short probe.

c. When switching acceleration (HI high frequency )

measurement mode to velocity or displacement

mode, the high frequency (HI) will be changed to

low frequency (LO) automatically.

d. Power turns off automatically after 60 seconds

without any operation.

e. The backlight closes down after 7 seconds without

any operation.

2. Operation

1). Selecting measurement probe tip:

Measurement tip is used as following 3 conditions,

please select according to actual condition:

a. Measurement with short (S) probe tip: this probe head

is factory default installment, adapts in wide scope

vibration measurement, and obtains good response

value, as shown in following figure:

b. Measurement with long (L) probe tip: this probe tip is

packing inside the carry box, mainly adapts in narrow

objects or special objects field, the unit will response

quickly, as shown in

following figure:

c. Measurement without probe tip: adapts in smooth

object surface measurement to get stable value,

shown in

following figure:

6. Measurement

As per the to-be-measured and frequency of vibration

structure, select corresponding measurement mode

(Acceleration/ Velocity/ Displacement) and frequency

(HI/LO frequency). Keep the " " key depressed with

your right thumb, press the vibration meter against the

measurement object at a force of 500g to 1kg, the result

is displayed on the LCD screen. Release the key and the

result is kept on the LCD screen. As shoen in following
