  • Page 12 The recorded max is cleared when the sensitivity is changed or if manually zeroed. Sensitivity (H/M/L/T) DR82 starts up in high sensitivity (H) which is recommended for most situations. When leaks are difficult to pinpoint due to excess triggering or sensor saturation, press SENSITIVITY to cycle to another sensitivity (Medium/Low/Turbo).
  • Page 13 Red Leak Indicator LED In most situations, the red LED at the tip is easier to monitor than the display. Because the blink rate increases as the relative concentration increases, many leaks can be found without ever viewing the display. LEAK SOURCE...
