IMPORTANT

◆ Set the poles of batteries correctly.

◆ Do not use different kinds of batteries.

◆ Use either size AA Alkali batteries (LR6) or AA Nickel Hydrogen batteries

(Ni-MH AA)

◆ Manganese batteries R6 cannot be used.

◆ When Alkali batteries are used, printed letters may fade accordingly.

◆ When Alkali batteries or Nickel Hydrogen batteries are used, print speed is

slower compared with the AC adapter.

◆ In the case of using batteries, if the surface shows peeling or breaks on the pole

of the battery, it may cause poor contact and start-up. Please use batteries only
after you check there is no peeling or surface breaks on the poles of batteries.

◆ If DP-1VR is not used for a long period, please remove the batteries from DP-

1VR. If the batteries remain connected to the DP-1VR for long time, fluid
leakage may damage the DP-1VR.

◆ The operational temperature of the batteries must remain over 10°C. If the

temperature is less than 10°C, undesirable things, such as printed letters
become thin, etc., may occur.

- 4 -

NOTE

◆ DP-1VR has no charger function. If you need to charge the batteries, a

dedicated battery charger is needed.

◆ Battery life is about 10,000 lines, (using 1,600 m Ah Ni-MH, and print large,

Daily maintenance of DP-1VR

MAINTENANCE

1. Clean printer head

When dust collects on the printer head, print quality is adversely affected, and
sometimes printing is impossible due to damage to the printer head. It is recom­mended cleaning the printer head periodically.

Cleaning method:
After opening the printer cover the printer head can be seen. Rub the printer head

with a cotton swab soaked in a little alcohol. After that, wipe off the remaining
alcohol lightly with a dry cotton swab until dry.

2. Clean paper sensor

If the paper sensor becomes dirty, detection of the record paper is impossible and
normal operation can not be conducted. It is recommended to clean the paper sensor
portion periodically.

Cleaning method:
After opening the printer cover the printer sensor can be seen. Rub the printer sensor

with a cotton swab soaked in a little alcohol. After that, wipe off the remaining
alcohol lightly with a dry cotton swab until completely dry.

◆ Just after finishing printing, do not clean. Printer head is hot; you may burn

your hand. Also, that heat may set the alcohol on fire.

◆ Alcohol left on the head should be dried completely, since there is a possibility

it could ignite.

◆ Handle the alcohol carefully.

◆ Do not use thinners, benzene etc., only use alcohol.

2. Overflow and calculation error

● Overflow and calculation error

Overflow conditions of DP-1VR and calculation error are shown below:
Overflow of DP-1VR is different due to mean value and amount of data.
This is shown in the graph overflow condition.

● Viewpoint of graph

If mean value 10 m is measured with 2 figures after the decimal point (by caliper
etc.), how much of data can be measured, is checked.

q Data 10000.00 is changed to 1000000 as no decimal point.
w Vertical axis 1000000 on graph is extended to the horizontal direction and

compared to the horizontal axis.

e 2000 is obtained as the number of the data.
r When the data of the mean value 10 m is measured about 2000, it is recog-

nized that the overflow happens.

3. Calculation error detail

Calculation error of DP-1VR is shown below:
Calculation error of DP-1VR is defined as follows.
q Last figure ±1 count. Graph expresses the inside of the overflow limit of the

calculation preciseness.
Dispersion of data is set at ±5% of the mean value.

w When the dispersion of the mean value is far beyond the mentioned value,

calculation error is over ±5.

e For A region (±1000000, data count less than 2000), in all cases, calculation error

is less than ±1.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Symptom Possible cause Remedies

When printing, the
DP-1VR unexpect­edly returns to the
initial state seen
after the power is
turned ON.
Printing is too
light

Printer does not
print

Miscounting often
occurs on the
measuring
instrument side

● Manganese dry cells are used by

mistake

● Peeling or poor fitting of the seal

is present on the battery pole

● The specified AC adapter is not

used.

● The DP-1VR supply power is

connected to the measuring
instrument.

● Input voltage to the AC adapter

(i.e. AC line voltage) is too low;
falls 5% or more than the rated
voltage

● The AC adapter is sharing the

same power line with a high­voltage or large-current device

● The printing head is not clean

● [PRINTER ON/OFF] switch is

turned to OFF

● The printer is jammed with

paper, etc

● The DP-1VR is in the timer

input mode and the input interval is
set to 0.25 or 1 sec.

● The AC adapter is sharing the

same power line with a high­voltage of large-current device.

● Use properly charged size AA

Nickel Hydrogen battery (Ni-Mh)
or Alkali battery (LR6)

● Correct the peeling or poor

fitting of the seal

● Use the dedicated AC adapter

09EAA088 (100/115V)
09EAA088D (230V)
09EAA088E (230V UK)

● The DP-1VR power supply

should not be connected to the
measuring device. Use a separate
power supply for each of them

● Adjust the voltage supply of the

power line correctly, and confirm
the result

● Connect the AC adapter to a

separate power line

● Clean the printing head with a

cotton swab, etc

● Press the [PRINTER ON/OFF]

switch again to turn on.
