Oil Temperature Probes
ADAPTERS
The DX211-11 and DX211-11BT Temperature Probe Adapters are used in conjunction with the
DX210-25A or DX210-26 oil probes for engine temperature measurements. The DX211-11 is
hard-wired to the smokemeter; the DX211-11BT communicates via wireless technology.

Connection to the Smokemeter
The DX211-11 utilises an RS232 communications cable for connection to the Smokemeter. The
unit connects to the smokemeter via a serial port. When not in use the flexible probe should be
stored in a protective holster
The DX211-11BT is a wireless device that will communicate with a wireless enabled
Smokemeter. A charging holster is supplied which should be used to store and charge the unit
when not in use. The DX211-11BT batteries will be charging at all times whilst stored in the
holster, indicated by the status indication light on the probe adapter glowing red.
Temperature probes
There are two flexible temperature probes, either of which can be plugged into either adapter. The
DX210-26 is a standard 0.75M probe, the DX210-25A is a 2.5M long-reach probe.
Connect the flexible oil probe to the socket of the DX211-11 or DX211-11BT. This connector
includes a snap-lock feature that ensures a reliable connection between the two devices.
Adjusting oil temperature probe length
Before testing, the probe must be adjusted to the correct length as follows:
Lay it alongside the vehicle dipstick (see illustration) and adjust the position of the depth stop
until the effective length of the probe is approximately 10mm shorter than the dipstick.
WARNING: ENSURE THAT THE OIL TEMPERATURE PROBE IS SET TO THE CORRECT
DIPSTICK LENGTH AND THAT IT IS CLEAN FROM DEBRIS BEFORE INSERTING INTO THE
ENGINE. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE PROBE AND/
OR ENGINE.
