3.9 First measurement
Once the MRS 120-3 moisture analyzer is successfully up and
running, you can perform an initial measurement to familiarize
yourself with the new instrument and to test it for any malfunctions.
Switch the instrument on using the «ON/OFF» key. The instrument
performs a self-diagnostics test to check the main functions. After
completion of the start-up process (which takes about ten
seconds), “Zero” appears in the display; this means that the
instrument is now ready for operation.
During the first measurement, the instrument uses the drying
parameters set in the factory.
