Operating the Transmitter After proper installation, the VeriDri transmitter is very easy to use. Simply power the unit up and you are ready to begin taking measurements. As the VeriDri stores moisture calibration data in non-volatile FLASH memory, you do not have to enter data manually or worry about losing data during a power loss.
Powering Up After the VeriDri is wired as described in the previous section, you may apply power to the unit. The transmitter takes approximately 20 seconds to initialize and begin normal operation. The unit will meet specified accuracy in about 3 minutes.
If the probe is still not reading the ambient air accurately, repeat the cleaning procedure using soaking times that are 5 times the previous cleaning sequence, until two consecutive ambient air readings are within ±2°C (±3.6°F). If the above cleaning procedure does not result in accurate readings, contact Panametrics for assistance. VeriDri™ User’s Manual...
