4 Settings
4.1 Initial Setting
Perform initial setting when using for the first time and after changing the
batteries, as the unit will display a memory data error.
1. Confirmation of display
When power is applied, if there is nothing on the
display, proceed to step 2.
If "Err" Is displayed on the LCD, switch the power
OFF and ON again. The display should clear.
Proceed to step 2.
2. Press and hold the POWER button for 6 seconds
or more.
The unit will move into the zero-clear mode. When
this happens "CAL" will be displayed.
3. Release the POWER button.
When zero clear is finished, the unit will operate.
4.2 Power ON
Press the POWER button.
The power will turn ON.
When pressed and held for 6 seconds or more the
unit will move into zero-clear mode.
4.3 Power OFF

4.5 Peak / Bottom display
Press the POWER button.
• For Peak display
To display the maximum pressure value, with "P"
displayed on the LCD. The display will change if the
pressure exceeds the pressure being held.
Press the POWER button.
• For Bottom display
To display the minimum pressure value, with "b"
displayed on the LCD. The display will change if the
pressure falls below the pressure being held.
Press the POWER to complete the setting.
Since this function is combined with the power OFF operation, the button
should be released when the "P" or "b" is displayed.
4.6 Auto Power OFF function
The power is turned OFF when there has been no
button operation for 5 minutes.
(To cancel this function refer to the lock mode
function below).
4.7 Lock mode function
Press and hold the POWER and LIGHT buttons
for 6 seconds or more.
The lock mode is activated and the auto power OFF
function is cancelled.
"L" is displayed on the LCD display.
When the power is turned OFF the lock mode is
released.
4.8 Turning ON the Backlight
Press the LIGHT button.
The display lights up when the button is pressed.
In lock mode it lights up when pressed and turns
OFF when pressed again.
However the maximum lighting time is
approximately one minute.
4.9 Zero clear function
Press the POWER button for 6 seconds or
more.
The zero displayed at atmospheric pressure can be
automatically adjusted.
This means it is possible to eliminate a display
discrepancy at atmospheric pressure.
1. Turn the power OFF.
2. Release the supply pressure to atmosphere.
3. When the POWER button is pressed and held
for 6 seconds or more the zero clear function is
performed and "CAL" is displayed on the LCD.
