With the moisture meter turned on, Press RESET followed by ENTER to clear all stored data.
7. Clearing the Stored Data from the Moisture Meter.
The ME2100 meter is fitted with a Rechargeable Lithium LiFeP04 battery. There is no maintenance required.
The battery should have a life of between four and five years.
When the battery voltage is low, the Charge Indicator on the meter will flash red. This indicates less than 15
minutes use available. Finish using unit, store data if necessary then turn off. Only use again after recharging unit.
NOTE: In the field the ME2015 Cigarette Lighter Adapter can be used to run the meter while the battery charges
When fully charged, the battery should operate the meter continuously for about 20 hours. This represents
potentially hundreds of moisture readings.
Unlike a nickel cadmium battery, this battery can be charged whenever convenient, and in fact is best kept fully
charged. When in regular use, it would be advisable to charge the battery at least once a week. A 5 hour
charge cycle (or overnight) is sufficient to fully charge the battery from dead flat. Charging for longer than this is not
necessary, but will not damage the battery. The charger could be left on continuously as the unit goes into trickle
mode after initial boost charge, but this is not necessary. When the meter is not being used for extended periods,
it is advisable to charge the battery about once every two months to keep it in good condition.
