5. POWER ON AND POWER OFF
5.1 Operating power supply
There are two methods available for energizing this instrument; by the built-in battery or with
the power adapter.
(1) Energizing with built-in battery
(1) To charge the battery
Turn OFF the instrument power and
connect the AC power adapter. The
“CHARGE” LED is lighted in red, and
“DC IN” LED is lighted in green.
When the instrument is fully charged,
"CHARGE” LED goes out.
* About 3 hours will be required for charging..
* In the fully charged condition, the instrument can measure for about 12 hours.
(On condition that the display backlight is turned off and the printer is unused, do not use
current output. The ambient temperature is near normal temperature (20°C).)
Note) The charging limit of the built-in battery is 0 to +40°C. If the charging is operated beyond
that range, it will cause hi-temp leak, performance deterioration, and short battery life.
(2) To energize by built-in battery
When turning on the power supply without connecting the power adapter, the instrument
will be energized by the built-in battery.
Before use, the battery should be fully charged.
(2) Energizing by power adapter
CAUTION
• Use the exclusive power adapter only. Don’t use other adapters, or it may result in
an accident.
• Except the main unit (printer, power adapters, etc.), it is not protected for dust or
waterproof.
Avoid using the product in a place where it will be exposed to water or humidity.

In case of operation with built-in battery, the power is turned OFF
about 40 minutes (see Note) after remaining capacity short (
indicated.
In case where measured data is being logged to an SD memory
card, execute logging interrupt processing before turning OFF the
power.
Note) This length of time varies by ambient temperature and bat-
tery conditions. The time depends on use conditions.
(3) Precautions for parameter setup change
When parameter setup is changed, parameters are stored in the internal non-volatile memory
upon return to the measurement screen.
The stored parameters are held even when the power is turned OFF.
Caution: If the power is turned OFF without returning to the measurement screen after parameter setup changes, the parameters are not stored, and setup is required again.

(3) Fix the both ends (saddles) of the sensor to the
pipe by cloth belts.
Mounting will be facilitated by winding the
cloth belts on the pipe in advance.
Cloth belts are usable at 80°C or lower. If beyond 80°C, stainless steel belts should be used.
(High-temperature stainless steel type of
belt)
(4) Make sure the sensor is mounted in parallel with
the pipe axis and the mounting dimension is
right. Then, turn the element holder clockwise
until the sensor comes in close contact with the
pipe.
Stop turning the element holder when it stiffens
because the transmitting surface comes in contact with the pipe surface. Be careful not to turn
the holder excessively.

8.5 How to mount large and medium size sensor
8.5.1 How to determine mounting position
Determine the mounting position by carrying out the following work.
For this work, gauge paper is necessary (For the gauge paper, refer to page 57).
(1) Match the edge of gauge paper with the line at
about 100mm (3.9") from one end of the pipe portion
treated for detector mounting, and wind the
gauge paper so that the line marked on the paper
is parallel with the pipe axis (fi x with tape not to
allow deviation). At this time, the edge of gauge
paper should be aligned.
(2) Extending the line marked on the gauge paper,
mark straight line A on the pipe.
(3) Mark a line along on edge of the gauge paper.
The intersection of this line and straight line A is
replaced with A
.

There are two logging modes, i.e., quick logger that permits operation from the measurement
screen and logger that is set from the menu screen. Logger is of two different modes, i.e., continuous mode and appointed time mode.
• Quick logger
• Logger
(1) Continuous mode
(2) Appointed time mode
(1) Quick logger
The quick logger starts when quick logger start button in the measurement screen is pressed.
The quick logger exits when a period of an hour has elapsed since it was started or when quick
logger stop button is pressed.
• Logging time: 1 hour, fi xed
• Cycle: 10 seconds, fi xed
• Measured data type: 3 types (unit and number of digits after decimal point are the same) displayed in measurement screen and status display

(2) Logger
(1) Continuous mode
Continuous mode is the mode to perform logging in a fi xed period from start date and time to
exit date and time.
Exit occurs upon elapse of exit date and time or when the stop button is pressed. As the exit
time varies by the start time and period, there are cases where it is different from the set exit
time.
• Logging time: Start date and time to exit date and time
• Cycle: 10 seconds to 24 hours
• Measured data type: 14 measured data types and status display

(2) Appointed time mode
Appointed time mode is the mode to perform logging in a fi xed period only during a certain
time zone of a day between the start date and exit date.
Exit occurs upon elapse of exit time of exit period or when the stop button is pressed. As the
exit time varies by the start time and period, there are cases where it is different from the set exit
time.
The difference between start time and exit time is one hour at minimum. If the start time is
earlier than the exit time, logging is performed over 0 o’clock.
• Logging period: Start date to exit date
• Logging time: Start time to end time
• Period: 10 seconds to 23 hours
