5.7.1 

How to set the date and time 

1. When “dAtE” is displayed, confirm your selection by means of the enter key (4). You can now set the 

  value by means of the 

 (5) and the 

 keys (6). The year comes first. After setting the value, press 

  the enter key (4) to get to the next value. The order will then be as follows: month, day, hour, minute and 
  second. 
2. When you have set all values and confirmed with the enter key (4), all settings will be saved. Now you 
automatically get to the menu “dEC” where you can set the decimal point. 

Note:

 The date and time always always runs with the device. Hence, you only need to make the setting 

once, unless you change the batteries. 

5.7.2 

How to set the decimal point 

The decimal point can be set as a point or comma. As in many countries in the world the decimal point is 
a point (e. g. 523.25) and in Europe, the decimal point normally is a comma (e. g. 523,25), you can 
choose “bASIC” if you wish to set a point and “Euro” if you want a comma. 
 

1. When the display shows “dEC”, you can use the 

 (5) and the 

 

keys (6) to select “bASIC” (for the 

  

point) or “Euro” (for the comma). 

2. Confirm and save by means of the enter key (4). 

5.7.3 

Auto Power Off function 

1. When the 

display indicates “PoFF”, you can select “yES” or “no” by means of the 

 (5) and the 

 

  

keys (6). By selecting “yES”, you activate the Automatic Power Off function and by selecting “no”, you 

  deactivate this function. 
2. Confirm and save by means of the enter key (4). 

5.7.4 

How to set the beeper 

1. When the display indicates “bEEP”, you can select “yES” or “no” by means of the 

 (5) and the 

 

  

keys (6). By selecting “yES”, you activate the beeper which means that an acoustic signal sounds 

  everytime 

a value is saved. “no” means that the beeper is off. 

2. Confirm and save by means of the enter key (4). 

5.7.5 

How to select the thermocouple (K- or J-type) 

1. When the display shows “tYPE”, you can select “K” or “J” by means of the 

 (5) and the 

 

  

keys (6). “K” stands for a K-type thermocouple and “J” means that you select a J-type thermocouple. 

2. Confirm and save by means of the enter key (4). 

5.7.6 

How to select the unit (°C or °F) 

1. When the display indicates “t-CF”, you can use the 

 (5) and the 

 keys (6) to 

select “C” or “F”. “C” 

  

means degrees Centigrade and “F” means degrees Fahrenheit. 

2. Confirm and save by means of the enter key (4). 

5.7.7 

How to set the sampling rate 

1. When the display shows “SP-t”, use the 

 (5) and the 

 keys (6) to set the sampling rate in steps of 

  

0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 30, 60, 120, 300, 600, 1800 and 3600 seconds. The “0” is set for manual data logging, see 

  chapter 5.5.3. 
2. Confirm and save by means of the enter key (4). 

5.7.8 

How to format the SD card 

1. When the display indicates “Sd F”, you can select “yES” or “no” by means of the 

 (5) and the 

 

  

keys (6). “yES” means that you would like to format the SD card. 

2. Confirm and save by means of the enter key (4). If you confirm “yES” by means of the enter key (4), 
  there will be another q

uestion where you can select “yES Enter”. Confirm this entry with the enter key (4) 

  again. The SD memory card will be formatted. 
  

Note: 

When you format the SD card, all data saved on it will be deleted irrevocably.
