PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION

These Hanna portable thermometers with built-in printers are micro-

processor-based to accurately measure temperature and record data.

The instrument housing is made of rugged and lightweight material,

specifically designed for the food industry.

Measurements can be performed with lab-grade precision in the field

without compromising accuracy. A 12VDC adapter can also be used to

power the unit for prolonged use.

Common features include: use of precalibrated and completely inter-

changeable probes, user-selectable printing/logging intervals, printing

on plain paper, automatic shut-off capability, low battery warning,

clock and calendar (HI 9171, HI 9174, HI 9181 and HI 9184),

memorization of logged values (HI 9181 and HI 9184), all opera-

tions password protected (HI 9171, HI 9174, HI 9181 and HI 9184)

and 2 year warranty.

HI 9181 and HI 9184 have a memory capacity of 16,000 individual

temperature readings with selectable recording intervals. Using the

HI 9200 infrared transmitter, all the recorded data can be fed to a PC

for reproduction, storage or elaboration without having to connect and

disconnect cables and cords.

INITIAL PREPARATION

Each meter is supplied complete with batteries. Remove the back

cover, unwrap the batteries and install them while paying attention to

the polarity (see also page 34).

To switch HI 9171, HI 9174, HI 9181 and HI 9184 on, press TEMP.

To switch HI 9271 and HI 9274 on, press ON/OFF.

If the meter does not switch on check the batteries.

PROBE CONNECTION

Choose the most appropriate temperature probe(s) for your applica-

tion (see page 36) and connect it (them) to the probe connector(s)

located on the top of the instrument. All the probes have been

precalibrated at the factory and no calibration is needed.

HI 9171, HI 9181 and HI 9271 take a single probe while HI 9174,

HI 9184 and HI 9274 can take up to four probes.

With the meter facing you, channel #1 is the first connector on the

top left corner.

If neither a temperature probe nor a calibration test plug is connected

to the instrument, the meter will display "°C ----" to alert the user.

This could also indicate that probe cable is damaged. "CH" and the

channel number are displayed together (HI 9174, HI 9184, HI 9274

only).

OPERATIONAL GUIDE

Note: To ensure accuracy, it is recommended that the temperature

probes be connected to consecutive channels beginning with

channel #1. For example, if only one probe is to be used,

connect it to channel #1. If 2, 3 or 4 probes are used, connect

them to channels 1, 2, 3, and 4 in ascending order.

AUTO SHUT-OFF

To maximize battery life the display is auto-

matically switched off after 5 minutes of

non-use. However, the meter will continue to

monitor the temperature if in recording/log-

ging mode.

To revive the display, press any key (except ALT with HI 9171,

HI 9174, HI 9271 and HI 9274).

pressed again. The password is also requested to stop printing (unless

it remained at default 0000).

Each printout provides the following information:

a – Date (DD-MM-YY)

b – Printing interval in minutes

c – Time (HH-MM)

d – Temperature value(s)

e – A running log number

f – Running sample number (in that particular log)

g – Channel number(s)

HI 9174 will print only the values of the probes connected. If probes

are added to the remaining channels during the recording mode, the

data from the additional probes will not be printed. Data from re-

maining channels can only be added if the recording mode is exited

and re-entered. A blinking "CH" will appear on the display next to the

channel numbers not being utilized and/or recorded.

When the meter is in recording mode "LOG"

is displayed on the bottom left corner of the

LCD together with time and the printing in-

terval.

If no keys are pressed, the meter goes to standby mode to prolong the

battery life while the recording function remains active.

To reactivate the display press TEMP.
