6. Instruccions de funcionament

6.1 Encès/Apagat

• Per encendre el dispositiu, manteniu premut el botó Encès/Apagat botó fins que la pantalla s'il·lumini.
• Per apagar el dispositiu, manteniu premut el botó Encès/Apagat botó fins que la pantalla s'apagui.
• The device features an auto-shutdown function after 15 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life.

6.2 Measurement Modes (RF, E-field, H-field)

The MESTEK EMF02R can measure three types of electromagnetic fields:

• RF (Radio Frequency) Radiation: Detects WiFi signals, 5G signals (30MHz ~ 8GHz), and microwave radiation.
• E-field (Electric Field) Radiation: Measures electric fields emitted by household appliances like TVs, laptops, and microwaves.
• H-field (Magnetic Field) Radiation: Measures magnetic fields from appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and air conditioners.

Figure 5: Switching between RF, E-field, H-field modes and using the HOLD function.

1. High-frequency Signal Radiation Measurement (RF): Premeu breument RF button. The screen will display "RF" and show the high-frequency radiation measurement.
2. E-field Radiation Measurement: Premeu breument SEL button. The screen will display "E-field" to enter electric field radiation measurement mode.
3. Electromagnetic Field Radiation Measurement (H-field): Premeu breument SEL button again (after E-field mode). The screen will display "H-field" to enter electromagnetic field radiation measurement mode. Short press SEL button again to change the measurement unit (mG/µT).

6.3 Funció de retenció de dades

Per congelar la lectura actual a la pantalla:

• Premeu breument MANTENIM button to lock the displayed data. The "HOLD" indicator will appear on the screen.
• Premeu el botó MANTENIM button again to unlock the data and resume real-time measurement.

6.4 MAX/AVG Measurement

The device can display either the instantaneous reading, the maximum value detected, or the average value detected.

Figure 6: Maximum (MAX) and Average (AVG) value display.

• Premeu breument MITJANA/MÀXIMA button to cycle through instantaneous, maximum (MAX), and average (AVG) readings during measurement.

6.5 Configuració d'alarma

The MESTEK EMF02R provides visual and audible alarms when radiation levels exceed predefined thresholds.

Figure 7: Visual and audible alarm thresholds.

• The display will show a color-coded bar (Green, Yellow, Red) indicating the radiation level.
• When the analog display reaches the yellow area, the device will emit an audible alarm, indicating that radiation levels are elevated.
• When the red area is reached, the alarm will become more rapid, indicating high radiation levels.
• To toggle the audible alarm on or off, short press the Alarma botó.

6.6 Unit Switching and Temperature/Humidity Display

The device can display temperature and humidity, and allows switching between temperature units.

Figure 8: Temperature and humidity display with unit switching.

• The device displays ambient temperature in both Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F), and relative humidity (%).
• To switch between °C and °F, refer to the specific instructions in the device's on-screen menu or a dedicated button if available (not explicitly detailed in provided data, typically combined with another button press or a menu option).

7. Understanding Readings and Radiation Sources

The MESTEK EMF02R helps identify common sources of electromagnetic radiation in your environment.

Figure 9: Common sources of electromagnetic radiation.

• Radio Frequency (RF) Sources: Routers, cell phones, 5G towers, microwave ovens (when operating).
• Electric Field (E-field) Sources: TVs, laptops, power lines, ungrounded electrical appliances.
• Magnetic Field (H-field) Sources: Refrigerators, washing machines, induction cookers, motors, high-voltage cables.

When measuring, slowly move the meter closer to the suspected source. Observe the readings and the alarm indicators to determine the strength and type of radiation. If the radiation value reaches the yellow or red alarm zone, consider taking protective measures or increasing your distance from the source.
