Installing The Antenna
Lift the rubber cover on the top of the AreaRAE Pro/Plus
that protects the antenna port. Hold the base of the
antenna and align it with the mating jack in the port.
Then screw the antenna onto the jack until it is snug.
Turning The AreaRAE Pro/Plus On
With the instrument turned off, press and hold the
[MODE] key until the audible alarm stops, and then
release. During startup, the battery, buzzer, and LEDs
are tested, and then it performs self-testing of its other
functions. When the main measurement screen appears,
the instrument is ready for calibration or use.
Note: When the battery’s charge falls below a preset
voltage, the instrument warns you by beeping once and
flashing once every minute, and the “empty battery”
icon blinks on and off once per second. You should
charge the battery or replace it with a fully charged
battery before turning it on again.
Note: If Fast Startup is enabled on the instrument,
fewer screens are shown during startup, compared
to Normal Startup sequence.
Turning The AreaRAE Pro/Plus Off
Press and hold [MODE]. A 5-second countdown to shut-
off begins. You must continue pressing on the key for the
entire shutoff process. If you remove your finger from the
key during the countdown, the shutoff operation is
canceled and the instrument continues normal operation.
When the countdown ends and the screen displays “Unit
Off,” release your finger from the [MODE] key. The
AreaRAE Pro/Plus is now off.
Testing The Alarms
Under normal-operation mode and non-alarm condi-
tions, the buzzer, LEDs, and backlight can be tested
anytime by pressing [Y/+] once. If any alarm does not
respond, check the Alarm Settings in Programming
Mode to make sure all alarms are enabled. If any
alarms are enabled but are not functional, do not use
the instrument.
Glance Mode For Quick Information
Glance Mode allows you to get vital information
without turning on the AreaRAE Plus/Pro. You can
check information such as the instrument’s model
and serial number, installed sensor types, wireless
modules installed, etc. Glance Mode can be
enabled/disabled via ProRAE Studio II on a
connected PC.
Using Glance Mode
With the AreaRAE Plus/Pro turned off, press and
hold [Y/+] to enter Glance Mode.
Every screen is
displayed in sequence as configured. Press [N/-]
to advance to the next screen. The AreaRAE
Plus/Pro exits Glance Mode and turns off when you
press the [MODE] key. In addition, if you do not
press either key in 60 seconds, the AreaRAE
Plus/Pro automatically exits Glance Mode.
