Important notices 

 The instruction manual for the RH32 series palm-sized temperature/humidity meter is consisted of Vol. 1 [Basic instructions] and 

Vol. 2 [Function instructions]. 

This instruction manual is Vol. 1 [Basic instructions]. 
For “Measurement and data storage”, “Stored data reading” and “Parameter programming”, etc., refer to Vol. 2 [Function instructions]. 

 

 [Auto-power-off function] 

For avoiding the comsumption of the batteries, the auto-power-off function  
of this 

temperature/humiditymeter

 has been set at ON (active) as a factory 

default setting. If no key is pressed for 1 minute, the continuous measurement 
will automatically stop and the mode will move to the clock mode. 

For setting of the auto-power-off function to OFF:   
Press DISP key to go to the continuous measurement mode ( Ref. [1.1Continuous 

measurement] and then press DISP key again for about 2 seconds to go to 
the programming mode. In the programming mode, press DISP key several 
times to go to the auto-power-off selection mode with 

“Auto”

 

lit in the sub 

display. In the auto-power-off selection mode, 

“on”

 (active) will flash in the 

main display 2. For releasing the auto-power-off function, select 

“oFF”

 

(release) by pressing 

 key or 

 key. Press ENT key to retain 

“oFF”

   

selected. The flashing of 

“oFF ”

will stop.

 

 For the RS-232C communications with Model RH32

-C2 (RS-232C 

   

communications type), the use of the AC power adapter (RH32-AC110 - sold 
separately) is recommended to avoid the consumption of the batteries. 

 Also, for the RS-485 communications with Model RH32

-C4 (RS-485 

 

communications type), make sure to use the AC power adapter 
(RH32-AC110 - sold separately) as the batteries will be consumed very rap-
idly.
