Basic Operation
Meter Power
This device uses a 9V battery for power. If the meter does not switch on when the POWER button is pressed or if the display shows LBT, replace the battery (refer to the Battery Replacement section later in this manual).
In order to conserve battery life, the meter has an automatic power off feature (after 10 minutes). To defeat this feature, access the RECORD mode by pressing the RECORD/RECALL button. In the RECORD mode, the meter will remain on until the user turns it off or until the battery weakens.
Unit of measure
Press the UNIT button to select the unit of measure. This meter offers eight (8) units of measure as listed below, in the specifications chart earlier in this manual, and on the face-plate of the meter.
Units Displayed Symbol
MBAR "m" at bottom of the LCD and "Bar" at the top
Kg/cm2 Kg /cm2
mm of Hg mm /Hg
m H2O m H2O
Atmospheres ATP
PSI PSI
Inches of Hg in/Hg
Inches of H2O inch H2O
Zero Adjust and Offset function
Before use and without fittings attached to the meter, press the ZERO button to calibrate the meter’s circuitry. The display should then indicate zero.
If it is desired to offset the meter’s display, press the ZERO button while taking a measurement. Subsequent readings will be the difference between the current measurement and the measurement that was on the display when the ZERO button was pressed.
Fittings Connection
Connect tubing to the quick-disconnect fittings and then snap the supplied quick-disconnect fitting(s) to the P1, P2 (or both) input port(s). If both inputs are used (differential mode), the meter displays a positive pressure reading if the P1 pressure is greater than P2 and a negative reading if P2 is greater than P1.

MIN/MAX Record/Recall Mode
The Record/Recall function tracks the maximum and minimum readings for recall at any time.
1. Press the RECORD/RECALL button once. The REC indicator will appear on the display.
2. Press the RECORD/RECALL button again to view the highest (MAX) reading taken since the RECORD/RECALL button was first pressed. The MAX indicator and maximum reading will appear on the display.
3. Press the RECORD/RECALL button again, the MIN indicator and the minimum value will appear on the display.
4. To return to normal operation, press and hold the RECORD/RECALL button until the display indicators REC, MAX, and MIN disappear.
RS-232 PC Interface
The meter has a built-in RS-232 serial port. For streaming of data to a PC via the RS232 Output jack, the optional 407001-USB kit (RS232 to USB cable and driver CD) along with the 407001 software (available free at www.extech.com) are required.

Battery Replacement
When the low battery indicator LBT appears on the display or if the meter does not switch on when the POWER button is pressed, it is necessary to replace the battery.
To replace the battery:
1. Remove the meter's rubber protective jacket by stretching it over the bottom of the meter.
2. Pry open the battery compartment located on the back of the meter using a small coin or screwdriver.
3. Replace the 9V alkaline battery
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and the protective jacket.
