PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION
Remove the instrument from the packing material and examine it carefully to make sure that no damage has occurred during shipping. If there is any damage, notify your Dealer.
Each thermometer is supplied complete with:
AA size Alkaline Batteries (4 pcs)
Instruction Manual
• Paper rolls (5 pcs)
Rugged Carrying Case.
Note: Save all packing material until you are sure that the instrument
functions correctly. All defective items must be returned in their original packaging together with the supplied accessories.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Hanna Instruments portable thermocouple thermometers with built-in printers are microprocessor-based and enable you to accu­rately measure temperature and record data.
The thermocouple type is user selectable to best suit the temperature range of your application. K, J and T thermocouple types can be selected.
The instruments housing is made of rugged and lightweight material making it truly portable.
The meters come equipped with an easy-to-read LCD with backlight feature for comfortable reading even in dark environments.
A user friendly interface provides clear messages regarding errors, functions and more.
The GLP features provide a guarantee of data consistency. Measurements can be performed with lab-grade precision in the field as
well as in the laboratory. An alarm time-out is available to alert the user if too much time has
elapsed since the last calibration and that re-calibration may be required.
The meters provide a controlled access to calibration and GLP settings through a password protection method.

The Battery Error Preventing System (BEPS) recognizes batteries levels as they become weaker.
To prolong battery life, the backlight and printing features are dis­abled when the batteries are getting low; "LOBAT" indication is displayed on LCD to warn the user of this condition. However, the meter contin­ues to measure correctly even when the low battery indication is displayed. The meter automatically switches itself off when the batter­ies are too weak to support proper function.
The meters are equipped with an internal lithium battery that powers the clock circuit even in the absence of power supplies.
For long term field and lab applications, these meters can be connected to a 12VDC adapter.
HI98801 and HI98804 have the capability to store the measurements in memory at a user selectable interval from 1 to 180 minutes. This information can be retrieved at a later time and also printed.
HI98801 and HI98804 also allow the transfer of stored data to a computer via the HI9200 infrared transmitter connected to the com­puter RS232 port.
Each meter can also be uniquely identified by the user by assigning an ID code.

INITIAL PREPARATION
ON/OFF
Each meter is supplied complete with batteries. Remove the back cover, unwrap the batteries and install them while paying attention to the polarity. Alternatively, connect the HI 710005 or HI 710006 voltage adapter to the power adapter plug.
To prepare the instrument for use, choose the most appropriate tem­perature probe(s) for your application (see accessories) and connect it (them) to the connector(s) located on the top of the instrument.
With the meter facing you, channel #1 is the first connector on the top left hand side.
To switch the meter on, press the ON/OFF key. The batteries charge status or "LINE" message (if external power adapter is connected) will be displayed on the LCD for a few seconds.
The meter is now ready to operate.
To maximize battery life, the meter is automatically switched off after a user selectable period of non-use (this feature is enabled and set to 5 minutes by default; it can be disabled or changed through setup code
40). If in logging mode, after the period of non-use, the meter will continue to monitor the temperature periodically at the end of every logging interval. Only the "LOG" indication will be visible on LCD. While storing data in memory, during the sleep mode, the reading will appear briefly on the LCD.
To reactivate the display press the ON/OFF key.
Note: When the use of an alternate function (FNC, CFM and LOT
INFO) is requested, press and hold the ALT key first and then the second listed key.

SETUP MODE
Setup can be used to view data regarding instrument status (e.g. battery charge) or GLP data (e.g. calibration date) or to view or print the logged data. It also allows the user to change the meter param­eters (e.g. time) and to gain access to stored data.
• To enter this mode ensure the meter is
not logging and then press the ALT and FNC keys.
• The scrolling message "Insert the function code or press "ALT" -
"FNC" to escape" in the upper LCD and the indication "F 00" with the first digit blinking in the lower LCD will be displayed.
• Enter the first digit of the code of the parameter you want to set
using the or key and pass to the next digit with . The second digit will start blinking.
• Enter the second digit using the or
key.
• Press ALT and CFM to confirm the code.
• If the entered code doesn't exist the "Err"
message will be displayed for a few sec­onds and then the message "Insert the function code or press ALT - FNC to es­cape" will recommence scrolling in the upper LCD.
8
PASSWORD PROTECTION
Setting of the GLP parameters (calibration alarm time-out, instrument ID code, time and date) can be password protected. If password is set to a value different from 0000 (factory setting), the user will be asked to enter the password.
• Select the desired GLP parameter code.
• Enter the password by the arrow keys.
• Press the ALT and CFM keys to
confirm.
• If password is wrong the meter will return to the function selection
mode without any warning message.
• If password is correct, the meter provides access to the parameter.
PARAMETERS SETTING
• Once the parameter code has been entered, the appropriate mes-
sage will scroll across the LCD for a few seconds.
• The current value of the selected parameter on the upper LCD and
the parameter code on the lower LCD will be displayed. The first digit will blink if the parameter can assume continuous values. All the digits will blink if the parameter can assume only a fixed set of values.
• Enter the new value using the arrow keys.
• Press ALT and CFM to confirm the value. The following table lists the setup codes along with the description of
the specific setup items, their valid values and the factory settings (default):
