Turning on the L622
Turn on the L622 by pressing the STORE button for one
second. The display will momentarily show the model,
software version, and revision numbers. Your L622 is
now ready to take moisture readings.
Moisture readings
Take moisture readings by pressing the bottom of the
L622 to the wood surface. The first line of the display
shows the species for which the L622 is calibrated. The
second line shows the reading in percent moisture
content.
Storing a reading
While pressing the bottom of the L622 to the wood
surface at the location of interest, press the STORE button
to save that reading in a group.
What is a group
A group is a set of readings that belong together. You
determine which readings belong together. Switch to
another group by first pressing the GROUP button. Press
the ARROW buttons to select a different number. Press
the STORE button to activate the selection. The active
group number is shown in the bottom right corner of the
display.
Viewing statistics
Statistical values such as mean, standard deviation,
highest reading, and lowest reading are calculated on
individual groups. They may be accessed for viewing by
using the menu system.
The menu system
For example, to view the mean and standard deviation
values for the active group, press the MENU button to
activate the main menu. Press the ARROW button to
scroll through the menu until the menu item Mean/Std is
displayed. Press the STORE button to activate the menu
item.
Changing species
If the L622 is not set to the species you are measuring,
change it using the menu system. See the section
“Factory Species List” for a complete list of available
species. If your species is not listed, you may customize
a species as outlined in the section “Changing Species.”
