Troubleshooting
 No measured value is displayed.
Is the sensor inserted the wrong way round?
Is the sensor inserted as far as possible?
Verify the correct plug orientation, and insert it as
far as possible.
If the values are not displayed despite these mea-
sures, the sensor and logger need to be inspected and repaired.
Please contact your dealer or Hioki representative.
Note: The maximum and minimum values are not displayed when the
recorded data count is 0.
 The display is blank.
Is auto power saving enabled (set to ON)?
When enabled, the display blanks after 30 seconds of operator inactivity.
Press any button or send a communication signal to turn on the display.
 The [REC] indicator disappears even though recording has not
been stopped.
Is the stop method disabled (set to OFF)?

To record continuously until stopped by the
stop method.
(In this case, old data is overwritten when the memory becomes full.)
Battery Status Indicator
 Recorded data has disappeared.
Does recording restart after stopping?
Note that if recording is accidentally restarted after stopping, data recorded
prior to the last recording is automatically erased.
(The logger retains the data from both current and most recent prior
recording operations.)
