The meter comes with both long and short probe heads. Select the appropriate probe head for your measurement application and securely screw it onto the sensor at the top of the device.

3. Instruccions de funcionament

3.1 Engegada/apagada

• Per encendre el dispositiu, premeu el botó "MEAS/ON" botó.
• The meter features an automatic power-off function, turning off after approximately 60 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery.

3.2 Selecció del mode de mesura

Premeu el botó "A/V/D" button to cycle through the measurement modes: Acceleration (m/s²), Velocity (mm/s), and Displacement (mm). The selected mode will be indicated on the LCD display.

3.3 Selecció de freqüència

Utilitza el "LO/HI" button to switch between low and high frequency measurement ranges. Refer to the specifications for detailed frequency ranges for each mode.

3.4 Prendre mesures

1. Ensure the correct probe is attached and the desired measurement mode (A/V/D) and frequency range (LO/HI) are selected.
2. Firmly press the probe tip against the surface of the object to be measured.
3. The measurement value will be displayed on the LCD.
4. For stable and precise readings, ensure consistent contact pressure and placement.

3.5 AC Signal Output

The device includes an AC signal output interface (2V peak, display full scale). This allows connection to external devices such as oscilloscopes or data recorders for further analysis. The load impedance should be 10KΩ or more, or earphones can be connected.

4. Manteniment

4.1 Substitució de la bateria

When the low battery indicator appears on the LCD, replace the 9V Alkaline battery as described in the "Battery Installation" section (2.2). Prompt replacement ensures accurate readings and continuous operation.

4.2 Neteja

Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the casing or display. Keep the probe tip clean for optimal performance.

4.3 Emmagatzematge

When not in use for extended periods, remove the battery to prevent leakage. Store the meter in its protective carrying case in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
