• Pin Mode
PIN mode must be selected in the menu (Moisture mode
) when an
external pin-based probe is used. Note the pin icon on the upper left of the
main display when selected. Pin-based readings are represented in %MC
(moisture content) for wood and %WME (wood moisture equivalent) for
materials other than wood. When the pins are replaced in a pin probe, if
the entire probe is replaced, or to simply ensure the highest accuracy,
please perform a PIN calibration. See the Settings menu, Section 5.8 (Set-
tings/Device Settings/Reset Options), for information.
