6.1. Changing the batteries
It is not possible to change the batteries for instrument types T1
and T2 (single-use data loggers).
A battery replacement stops any measurement that is
currently running. The saved measurement data and
generated PDF reports, however, remain permanently
stored.
An interruption of the power supply leads to the testo 184
USB transport data logger's time settings being reset. In
order to reinstate the correct time setting, configuration
must be carried out via the PDF file, the Comfort Software
or the testo Saveris 184 config tool.
1. Read out stored data.
2. Place the data logger on its front.
3. Open the battery compartment on the back of the data logger
by turning anti-clockwise. Use a coin for this purpose.
4. Take the spent battery out of the battery compartment.
After removing the old battery, please wait 10 seconds or
press the start key approx. 5~10 times until the indicator on
the LCD display goes completely blank and no LED is
flashing.
5. Insert new batteries (see technical data for type required) into
the instrument so that the positive terminal is visible.
When changing batteries, only use new, full batteries. If a
partially exhausted battery is inserted, the battery capacity
will not be calculated correctly.
Only change the battery when the battery icon on the LCD
display is empty.
Before and during use, check that the battery LED flashes
red and the battery icon on the LCD display is "full".
6. Place the battery compartment cover on the battery
compartment and close it by turning clockwise. Use a coin for
this purpose.
- The data logger is in reset mode, rSt is illuminated
(instruments with display), status LEDs are disabled.
