GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Hanna Instruments portable thermometers with built-in printers are microprocessor-based and enable you to accurately measure temperature and record data. The instrument housing is made of rugged and lightweight material. Equipped with a large, easy-to-read LCD, the units feature an extended battery life and a special design that enables results to be obtained even in humid, wet or dusty conditions. Measurements can be performed with labgrade precision in the field as well as in the laboratory without compromising accuracy. A 12VDC adapter can also be used to power the unit for extended use. 1 HI 92810 and HI 92840 have a capacity of 16,000 individual temperature readings with recording intervals selected by the user. Using the HI 9200 infrared transmitter, all the recorded data can be fed to a PC for easy reproduction, storage or elaboration without the interference of cables and cords between the meter and the receiver. Other features include: on-board clock and date, user-selectable recording/logging intervals, automatic memorization of measured values (HI 92810 and HI 92840 only), use of pre-calibrated completely interchangeable probes, printing on plain paper, automatic shut-off capability, low battery warning and 2 year warranty. Two versions are available: HI 92710C, HI 92740C, HI 92810C and HI 92840C perform temperature readings in degrees Centigrade; HI 92710F, HI 92740F, HI 92810F and HI 92840F perform temperature readings in degrees Fahrenheit.

Remove the back cover, unwrap the batteries and install them while paying attention to the polarity. To prepare the instrument for use, connect the temperature probe to the connector located on the top of the instrument. To switch the HI 92710 and the HI 92740 "ON", press the ON/OFF key. ON/OFF To switch the HI 92810 and the HI 92840 "ON" press the TEMP key. TEMP Choose the most appropriate temperature probe(s) for your application (see page 35) and connect it (them) to the meter. All the probes have been precalibrated at the factory and no calibration is needed. HI 92710 and HI 92810 have a single probe connector. HI 92740 and HI 92840 have four probe connectors. With the meter facing you, channel #1 is the first connector on the top left hand side. 6 If the temperature probe or a calibration test plugs is not connected to the channel input, the meter will display and print "----" to alert the user. °C CH This also indicates the possibility of a broken probe cable. The channel is displayed with "CH" and the number of channel (four channels versions only). Note: To ensure accurate readings 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, it must be connected to channel #1. If 2, 3 or 4 probes are to be used, they must be connected to channels 1, 2, 3, and 4 in ascending order. To maximize battery life, the display is automatically switched off after 5 minutes of nonuse. However, the meter will continue to monitor temperature (if in the logging mode) . 7 OPERATIONAL GUIDE SETTING THE PRINTING INTERVAL (for HI92710 and HI92740 only) Turn the instrument on by pressing the ON/OFF key. ON/OFF Press the INTV and the UP or DOWN keys simultaneously. UP OR INTV DOWN The display will show the log number. At the bottom of the display the printing interval will be flashing. INTV Keep the INTV key pressed and set the printing interval by pressing the UP or DOWN key. Select between 1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120 and 180 minutes. SETTING THE MEASUREMENT RESOLUTION (for HI 92710 and HI 92740 only) Press the 0.1/1 key to select the 0.1° or 1° resolution. °C 0.1/1 CH With four channels versions, all four channels readings automatically change by pressing this key. To return the reading to the previous resolution, simply press the 0.1/1 key. 8 SETTING DATE / TIME / PRINTING INTERVAL (for HI92810 and HI92840 only) Press the ALT and the TIME keys simultaneously. The display will show the date setting. At the bottom of the display the year will be blinking. ALT UP DATE TEMP TIME Use the UP or the DOWN arrow keys to select the year. UP DOWN When the correct year is selected, press the TIME key once. The left digit of the display blinks, showing the month. DATE TIME Select the month by using the UP or the DOWN arrow keys. UP DOWN 9 Press the TIME key, the right hand side of the display shows the day. DATE TIME Use the UP or the DOWN arrow key to select the correct day. UP DOWN Press the ALT and the TIME keys simultaneously and the display will now show the clock time with the printing interval blinking. ALT UP INTV TIME TEMP TIME Any interval can be selected from 1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120 or 180 minutes by using the UP and the DOWN arrow keys. UP DOWN Once the desired interval is selected press the TIME key once to set it, the left digits of the display will start blinking. 10 To select the hour, press the UP or the DOWN arrow keys (24 hour clock). UP DOWN To set the hour press the TIME key once, the minutes start blinking. TIME INTV TIME Use the UP or the DOWN keys to select the minutes. UP DOWN Press the ALT and the TIME keys to leave this mode. ALT UP TEMP TIME The time, date and printing interval are now set and stored in the memory even when the display is switched off. 11 TO VIEW DATE / TIME / TEMPERATURE (for HI 92810 and HI 92840 only) To view the time press the TIME key. This also displays the selected interval time on the secondary LCD. TIME INTV TIME To view the date, press the UP key when the LCD is displaying time. DATE UP To view temperature press TEMP key. °C CHANNEL CH TEMP Using UP or DOWN keys select which channel to monitor (four channels versions only). UP DOWN If "----" is displayed, it indicates that the temperature probe or calibration test plug are not connected. °C CH This also indicates the possibility of a broken probe cable. The channel is displayed with "CH" and the number of channel (four channels versions only). 12 PRINTING / RECORDING WITH HI 92710 AND HI 92740 To print the measured values press the PRINT key. The printout provides the following PRINT information: a - Running sample number a 0001 *10.25 #1 20.0 °C. b - The total accumulative #2 85.5 °C. #3 ---- °C. d #4 ---- °C. time c - Temperature value. d - Channel number (HI 92740 only) b c RECORDING MODE (PROGRAMMED PRINTOUTS ) Press the LOG key to enter the recording mode. The log number and page number will LOG appear for a few seconds on the display to indicate the correct operational mode. The meter will write the first measurement taken in that moment, and will print at the interval selected thereafter until the ON/OFF key is ON/OFF pressed. LOG INTV The printout provides the following information: d #1 25.0 °C. e a - A running log number f #2 27.3 °C. b - A running sample number (in that particular log) c - Printing interval indicator in minutes d - The accumulated time since printing started (HH.MM) e - Temperature value f - Channel number (HI 92740 only). a b ==07== 0014 0005M *01.05 c In HI 92740 only, if less then 4 probes are plugged in during recording mode, the meter will print only the values of the probes connected. 13 If probes are added to the remaining channels during the recording mode, the data from the additional probes will not be printed. Data from remaining channels can only be added if the recording mode is exited and a new log number is entered. A blinking "CH" will appear on the display next to the channel numbers not being utilized and/or recorded. °C LOG CH If more than one channel is being monitored, the printer will automatically print the temperature of ...
