Silent Mode
In Silent mode the device does not transfer measured data even if a PDA is connected. The
data is still saved to memory but immediately marked as sent. The display shows three dashes
(---) in the top right corner when in Silent Mode. Press MEM and FUNC for 2 seconds to
switch silent mode on and off.
Pressing CLR and MEM for 2 seconds marks all measured data as sent without entering
Silent mode.
Charging the Battery
To charge the battery, a 5V source must be connected to the charging connector in the battery
compartment. Any phone charger with a micro USB connector will do the job.
The battery indicator in the display shows the actual battery level. It flashes when a charger is
connected and stops flashing when the battery is fully charged.
