Section 1 — Introduction
Only use an approved power adapter — 12 V 3 A
output, center positive. Do NOT use the plug-pack
transformers supplied with previous instrument
versions. Doing so will damage these transformers.
The cover over the comms and charger connectors
provides an essential seal. The cover must be in place
whenever you use the instrument in an industrial
environment. Failure to comply with this
requirement might void your warranty. IP65 rating
only applies while the cover is securely in place.
Transfer information stored in the instrument to a PC
before reprogramming (PROFLASHING) the instrument
with new firmware. PROFLASHING the instrument will
delete all stored information.
To obtain accurate measurements, ensure the drive
current is switched on when using an IEPE/ICP®-type
accelerometer.
Mount the sensor correctly before taking
measurements. This will ensure your readings are
accurate and consistent.
Use a mild detergent diluted with warm water to
clean your instrument. Do NOT use abrasive or
polishing substances, hydrocarbons, petrochemicals,
or solvents, as these will degrade the plastic casing.
Do NOT place the instrument or magnetic mounting
base where the temperature might exceed 140°F
(60°C). This will degrade the battery pack and magnet.
If your instrument malfunctions, return it to an
authorized dealer. Do NOT attempt to repair the
instrument yourself as this will void your warranty.
