Instructions / Assembly

The operating instructions for the model BD-2100 are divided

into two sections. Section A is a step-by-step guide to the

different features and basic use of your moisture meter.

Section B contains information on how the meter is used for

testing different materials.

Please read the instructions carefully. If you require additional

information, please contact Delmhorst for assistance.

SECTION A

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

BUTTON FUNCTIONS

! Read Button - This button reads the Percent Moisture

Content value (%MC), in the user-selected scale.

@ Calibration Check Button - This button checks the meter

calibration. It also displays the average of up to 100

readings; displays the highest stored reading; erases the

readings.

# Scale Button - This button sets the display scale to #1

(Wood), #2 (Plaster/Concrete reference scale), and #3

(Gypsum). It also acts as a scroll key, depending on the

function.

$ Set-Point Button - This button programs the set-point

value. A buzzer will alert you if the meter reads higher

than the selected value. It also acts as a scroll key,

depending on the function.

CHECK CALIBRATION

hPress the read button ! and calibration check button @

simultaneously. Meter is in calibration if it displays 12%

(+/- 0.2). Make sure the pins are not in contact with anything

when checking the calibration.

If you check the calibration and the meter does not display

12%, it is likely an indication of a low battery. If this occurs,

change the battery immediately. Continued use with a low

battery may cause the meter to go out of calibration. If you

have a fresh battery and the instrument still does not indicate

a proper calibration, return it to DELMHORST for service.

See Service for Your Meter section.

When the battery is removed and then reconnected, the

meter displays its software version for one second and then

turns itself off. After replacing the battery, you must reset

the meter as described in Resetting the Meter section.
