Chapter 2 Setting-up Supplying Power to the Model 9565 Series The Model 9565 VelociCalc Air Velocity Meter can be powered in ® one of two ways: four size AA batteries or the AC adapter. Installing the Batteries Insert four AA batteries as indicated by the diagram located on the inside of the battery compartment.
DO NOT attempt to charge alkaline batteries. Using the AC Adapter The AC adapter can be used to power the instrument or to charge the NiMH batteries when the DIP switch in the battery compartment is set to NiMH. If the DIP switch is set to Alkaline, and the AC power adapter is connected, then the batteries will be bypassed and the meter will be powered by the AC adapter.
Connecting Ventilation or IAQ Probes The ventilation and IAQ probes have a “D” shape overmolding on the mini-DIN connector which must align with the connector at the base of the 9565 series meter. This will ensure the probe is properly connected and remains so during use.
DO NOT use the instrument or probes near hazardous voltage sources since serious injury could result. Using the Pressure Ports (9565-P) The 9565-P includes pressure ports that can be used to measure static and differential pressures in ductwork. Negative (-) Pressure Port Positive (+) Pressure Port Connecting the Static Pressure Probe The Static Pressure probe included with the 9565-P is connected...
Connecting an Optional Pitot Probe or Airflow (straight pitot) Probe When connected to a pitot probe, air velocity or air volume can be measured. A pitot probe can be connected to the “+” and “-” pressure ports on the Model 9565-P using two pieces of tubing of equal length.
DO NOT use the instrument or probes near hazardous voltage sources since serious injury could result. Thermocouple Ports The 9565 series includes two thermocouple ports at the base of the meter. Any K-Alloy thermocouple with mini-connector can be attached. See Display Setup for setting the thermocouple temperature readings to be displayed as TC1, TC2, or TC1-TC2.
Connecting the Optional Bluetooth ® Portable Printer Device (Models 9565-P and 9565-X only) To connect the Bluetooth printer to the Model 9565, power on the unit and the printer. Then press the MENU soft key. From the Menu use keys to highlight Bluetooth Functions and press the ...

Round duct, Rect duct and Duct area are used to perform a duct traverse using a pitot probe or thermoanemometer probe. Press/Kfact allows for calculating flow rate from diffusers or flow stations with pressure taps using the instruments pressure ports and Kfactors.
When measuring Flow as the Primary measurement, the parameters can be quickly changed by pressing the or key while on the main measurement screen: Make adjustments with the or arrow keys and press accept, or enter the Select Duct or Select Kfactor menu to choose a different pre-programmed flow value or dimension.
ACTUAL/STANDARD SETUP Choose Actual/Standard measurements and parameters in the Act/Std Setup menu. The Model 9565 measures the actual barometric pressure using an internal sensor. The temperature source can be entered manually or taken from a probe that measures temperature (plug in probe or thermocouple). The Entered Temp range is from -40 to 1832°F (-40 to 1000°C).
DATA LOGGING Measurements Measurements to be logged to memory are independent of measurements on the display, and must therefore be selected under DATA LOGGING Measurements. When set to ON, measurement will be logged to memory. When set to DISPLAY, measurement will be logged to memory if it is visible on the main running screen.
