II-4 Cooling down of memory unit
Upon termination of measurement, the memory unit is very hot. Cool down the memory unit thoroughly
by means of a cooling fan, etc. before starting the next measurement.
● After the measurement, open the heat resistant case of the memory unit, put the main unit and
heat-resistant case on a cooling unit. Turn on the cooling unit.
[Notice]
● Cool down the memory unit fully (to room temperature) before starting measurement.
● When storing the memory unit, be sure to turn OFF the power switch.
● If thermocouples are not connected to all the channels of this equipment, measurement error may
result. Use short-pin for channels that are not used.
If breaking of wire occurs in any thermocouple during ordinary measurement, data memory may
become incorrect. In such a case, replace the affected thermocouple, and perform measurement
again.
● 20 data can be recorded. More data overwirtes old one.
● There are different types of AAA batteries, the battery life time depends on its capacity.
They get RCX-S memory unit to work more than 10 hours with 900mAh.
While batteries are used, their deterioration gets capacity to reduce little by little and the operationg
time is getting shorter.
