6.3 Měření

Once powered on, the device will automatically begin measuring ammonia concentration. Position the sensor head in the area to be monitored. The PPM reading will update in real-time.

6.4 Funkce alarmu

The AR8500 features both audible and visual alarms. When the detected ammonia concentration exceeds the preset alarm threshold, the device will emit an audible alert and the alarm icon on the display will illuminate.

• Setting Alarm Value: Refer to the detailed user manual for instructions on how to adjust the alarm threshold. This typically involves using the "MODE" or arrow buttons.
• Zvuk alarmu: The alarm sound is divided into 80 dB.

6.5 Výběr jednotky

Use the "UNIT" button to cycle through available measurement units if applicable (e.g., for temperature, though the primary gas reading is fixed at PPM).
