Configuring the Tech 60*
* This information is provided in addition to the manual included with the instrument and not to be considered all inclusive. Do read the manual.
Configure the Temperature and Carbon Monoxide readings in the instrument by pressing the HOLD and I/O buttons at the same time. The hose and probe assembly does not need to be plugged in for this procedure.
The first screen selects Fahrenheit or Centigrade for the temperature reading. Press the scroll up/down button to make your selection and then press ENTER.
The next screen that comes up determines how the instrument will read carbon monoxide levels after the 60 second warm up period.
A2 means that the instrument will do an 'automatic' calibration during the 60 second warm up period. This means that the instrument will read 0ppm's irregardless of the ambient CO levels. Should ambient CO levels be in excess of approximately 50ppm's, the instrument will read CO sensor error once the warm up period has been completed.
2Ero (Zero) means the instrument will do a 'manual' calibration during that period of time. Manual calibration means that once the 60 second warm is complete, it will read actual CO levels. For protection in a potentially contaminated environment, this is the configuration we recommend.
no disables the CO reading.
Press ENTER to make your selection and move on to the time/date screens.
The first screen sets the time (in military format), set the hour by scrolling from '0' to '23' and press ENTER. In the example below, the hour is set to 10 am.
When the ENTER key is pressed, the courser will move above the minute setting - in the example below, the time is set to 10:05am when the ENTER key is pressed.
When the date screen comes up, pressing the scroll up/down keys set the month. Press ENTER to set the month
Press the scroll up/down to set the day and press the ENTER key.
The next screen sets the year. Scroll up/down and press ENTER to set the year.
The final configuration screen that comes up programs the instrument for the correct printer (in this case IRDA).
Press ENTER to select the printer.
Press the I/O button to exit the configuration mode.
