DLM-107A Digital Length Meter
1
The Model DLM-107 Digital Length Meter is de-
signed to accurately measure fabric length (or
other moving belt material), in feet or meters.
The operator controls the start and end of the
measuring interval by pressing the Measure But-
ton. This procedure should be followed:
1. Affix the measuring wheel to the instrument
shaft, being sure that the shaft cross pin en-
gages the slot of the wheel hub. TIGHTEN
THE HUB SET SCREW. With the handle
held firmly using one or two hands, bring the
wheel edge to the moving surface belt or fab-
ric, supplying a light to moderate amount of
pressure, only enough to assure good con-
tact. There should be no indication in the
LED readout.
2. To start measuring, press and hold the white
push button on the handle. An increasing
reading in feet will appear in the window. To
end the measurement m release the button.
The reading will be displayed for approxi-
mately 10 seconds and then disappear. To
recall the measurement after the reading has
disappeared, press the Memory Recall but-
ton on the face of the instrument. To clear
the memory push and hold the memory but-
ton for 5 seconds.

Even though the measuring wheel continues to
rotate after the switch is turned off or the wheel is
lifted from the surface, the last reading will be
held in memory. Measurement is made only dur-
ing the period when the power is on. Reactivat-
ing the power switch erases the previous reading.
NOTE: a flashing display indicates battery low
voltage.
