Page 10: Operation
Please fully charge the battery before use. 5.1.1 Auto Power OFF (APO) The meter switches OFF automatically after a programmed period of inactivity. Press any button to reset the APO timer. To disable APO, or to change the APO time‐out value, use the Settings mode, accessible from the Main Menu. The default time‐out is 20 minutes. 5.2 Moisture Measurements 5.2.1 Moisture Measurement Overview Moisture measurements can be performed using either the internal pinless moisture sensor (rear) or by connecting an external probe. A standard external pin probe is included which connects to the MR160 via the jack at the bottom of the meter. Other external probes are available; please visit for details. NOTE: Objects in close proximity to the internal pinless moisture sensor (located on the rear of the unit) will affect the reading on the display; Keep hands and fingers clear of the sensor when taking measurements. The internal moisture sensor detects moisture to a depth of approximately 19mm (0.75”). The actual depth will vary depending upon the amount of moisture, the material under test, surface roughness, and other factors. Moisture readings are shown on the display (digitally and with bar graph) in the Moisture‐only mode or in small digits (upper left hand corner) in the IR + IGM Moisture mode. See Fig. 5‐1. Pinless measurement readings are ‘relative’ scaled (0~100). Pin‐based readings are represented in terms of %MC (moisture content) for wood and %WME (wood moisture equivalent) for non‐ wood materials; additional information is provided in Section 5.2.6 External Pin Probe Moisture Measurements and in the specifications. Moisture measurements are covered in detail in the following sections. Be sure to select Pin Mode or Pinless Mode in the Moisture Menu to match the measurement type.

(3) on the upper left of the main display when selected. 4. PINLESS MODE PINLESS mode must be selected when using the internal sensor. Note the pinless icon (4) on the upper left of the main display when selected. 5. SET REFERENCE MODE SET REFERENCE is used to compare the displayed readings against a stored reference measurement (see Section 5.2.7 Reference Mode). This mode applies only to readings taken with the pinless internal sensor. 5.2.5 Internal Moisture Sensor Measurements (Pinless) 1. Follow the steps in Section 5.2.1 through 5.2.4 and select the Pinless mode. 2. Place the internal moisture sensor (back) on the surface of the material to be tested. Apply light pressure to ensure that the internal sensor is completely flat against the surface of the material under test. 3. The relative moisture reading is displayed on the main display in the upper left hand corner (IR + IGM Moisture mode) or as bargraph with accompanying digits (Moisture‐ only mode). Refer to example screens shown in Fig. 5‐1. 4. Keep hands, surfaces, and objects away from the rear internal moisture sensor area when taking measurements. 5. For best results, lift the meter off of the surface under test between measurement points; do not drag the meter over surfaces.

Page 14: External Pin Probe Moisture Measurements
5.2.6 External Pin Probe Moisture Measurements 1. Follow the steps in Section 5.2.1 through 5.2.4 and select Pin mode from the MOISTURE mode options. 2. Connect the external pin probe to the meter’s EXT jack on the bottom of the meter (under the protective flap). Refer to the FLIR website for information on available external pin moisture probe types. 3. Select the appropriate Material Group as described in Section 5.2.4 (see Section 9 for the Material Group Appendices). Note: Use Group 9 for building materials. 4. Press the pins into the material under test. 5. The moisture reading is displayed on the main display (%) in the upper left hand corner (IR + IGM Moisture mode) or as a bargraph with accompanying digits (Moisture‐only mode). Refer to example screens shown in Fig. 5‐1. Notes on External Pin Probe Moisture measurements The MR160 will display accurate external pin probe readings in the 7% to 30% range, depending on the tested material. Moisture Content readings below 6% will display as 0% for all materials and the maximum specified range is dependent on the fiber saturation point for specific species. Above the fiber saturation point, the reading can only be used as a relative reference value. For more information on fiber saturation please refer to ASTM D7438. For additional information on Pin moisture measurement accuracy please see ASTM D4444, section 6.

Page 15: Reference Mode Moisture Measurements
4. To remove the reference value and exit the mode: Remove the meter sensor from the area under test, so that the sensor is no longer touching a surface and is clear of any objects (keep hands away from the sensor also), and then press the Set Reference icon again. The reference value will no longer be visible on the meter display. 5.3 Thermal Imager (IR) The full screen IR Thermal Imager is active in the IR ‐only mode and the IR + IGM Moisture mode (selectable from the IMAGE mode icon in the Main Menu). The Thermal Imager lens is located on the back of the meter. Face the lens toward the area of interest and view the image on the meter display. Select the IR thermal image display color palette from the Settings menu. Select IRON, RAINBOW, ICE, or GREYSCALE; see examples in Fig. 5‐4. For example: the ICE palette hot to cold temperatures, for images, are represented by this color palette progression: white>grey>black>blue>white. See the color palette example below in figure 5‐5(c). For the ICE palette, the right side of the scale shows the hotter pixels in the frame, and the left side of the scale shows the coldest pixels.

Fig. 5‐6(a) Palette auto‐scale unlocked Fig. 5‐6(b) Palette auto‐scale locked away from hot object If the user wishes to narrow the range of color and limit it to colors near the cold temperature image, Lock/Unlock can be set to ‘Lock’ with no hot objects in the frame. To lock the scale, press the Select button to access the Main Menu, scroll to the Lock icon, and press Select again to toggle unlock/lock. Some experimentation and fine‐tuning may be required to get the best possible contrast for the application. 5.5 Screen Capture and Hold Pressing the Image Capture button captures the current MR160 screen. The screen will hold (freeze) for seven (7) seconds, until an image file‐name appears indicating that the image has been saved. During the seven second ‘hold’ period, the user can simply examine the image and press the Back button to discard or press Select/Capture to save the image. Images are saved in bitmap (.bmp) format. Images can be accessed on the MR160 screen using the Image Review icon available in the Main Menu. Then scroll the images using the Left and Right navigation buttons.

Images can also be transferred to computer or other compatible device using the MR160 USB port (bottom of meter, under flap) and supplied USB cable. 5.6 ‘Combination’ Feature: Save Thermal Image with Pinless Moisture Reading The Combination feature allows the user to ‘freeze’ a thermal image and take a pinless moisture reading, saving both the thermal image and the moisture reading on a single image. The ‘held’ thermal image, with continuous moisture reading shown on the same screen, can then be captured as explained in Section 5.5 above. Enter the IR + Moisture Image mode (refer to Section 5.2.3 Image Mode). Hold the Image Capture button until crosshairs appear and the laser is visible (Fig. 5‐7(a)). While continuing to hold the Capture button, aim the laser at the measurement spot. Release the Capture button. The image will freeze but the moisture reading will flash and continue to update as it waits for a measurement. Place the pinless measurement sensor pad of the MR160 against the item targeted by the laser pointer to make the moisture measurement. Press the Select button to capture (save) the image; note that the image will include the moisture reading; see Fig. 5‐7(b). After a seven second hold period, an image file‐name will appear on the screen (FLIRxxxx.bmp), indicating that the image has been saved. During this time‐out period, the user can press Back to cancel the image capture, or Select/Capture to save the image.
