- Page 2 Operating instructions for Advent Hand Tachometer models A2102, A2102/LSR A2103, A2103/LSR General features of models All models feature a patented vertical LCD display that gives very good view in most applications, all have an “Inverting display feature” which maintains the display in the correct plane for the user, for example when pointing the unit down into machinery.
- Page 3 Models A2102 and A2102/LSR features and operation Optical systems - Two types of optical system are used: - Model A2102 has the standard visible light source via an incandescent Minilamp Model A2102/LSR has enhanced optical Laser light system for greater optical performance. Both models have a fully autoranging measurement system as standard.
- Page 4 Contact rpm measurement Fit contact adaptor into the Tachometer and ensure a good click fit connection. Start machine and make clean contact with the shaft end. Ensure a steady firm pressure is applied to the wheel, just sufficient to maintain slip free contact, excess pressure will wear the rubber tip and bearings and may slow the machine down and give inaccurate readings.
- Page 5 Speed range - Optical mode - 3 - 99,999 rpm (or equivalent in rps) Contact mode - Max. 50,000 rpm for 10 sec (or equivalent in rps) Linear speeds - maximum - 0.30 - 1500.0 Metres or Yds/min. (4,500 ft/min) or equilavent in sec- onds Resolution range features - Fully Autoranging up to 0.001digit or +/- 1 digit fixed, User selectable...

- Page 7 10. Time interval measurement - int 10.1. Select int mode through Measurement selection mode 10.2. This mode allows measurement of Time between pulses from optical system (or contac- tor). 10.3. Optically the instrument will measure the time in seconds between pulses, useful for cy- cle timing of reciprocating machinery.
