Place your thumb on the middle of the front of the unit and slide the top cover down to expose the controls (see image above). While in the time-of-day/date display, pressing the SELECT button or ADVANCE button will allow the date and time to be set. Pressing the SELECT button will cause the digits to flash in the following order Year→Month→Day→Hours→ Minutes →12/24 hour time→No digits flashing (value set). Once the desired item is flashing, pressing the ADVANCE button will increment the value. Press and hold the ADVANCE button for <3 seconds for continuous incrementation. With the desired time-of-day/date appearing on the display, press the SELECT button until no digits are flashing on the display. The time-of-day/date will be saved. While in the time-of-day/date display, pressing the EVENT DATE/TIME button will switch the date display between Month/ Day (M/D) and Day/Month (D/M) display modes. Note: While in the time-of-day/date setting mode, if no button is pressed for fifteen (15) seconds, the unit automatically exits from the setting mode. All digits will stop flashing to indicate setting mode has been exited. VIEWING THE TIME-OF-DAY/DATE To view the time-of-day/date, slide the DISPLAY switch to the DATE/TIME position. DISPLAYING °F OR °C To display the temperature readings in Fahrenheit or Celsius, slide the °C/°F switch to the desired position. MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM MEMORY The minimum temperature recorded into memory is the minimum temperature achieved since the last time the memory was cleared. The maximum temperature recorded into memory is the maximum temperature achieved since the last time the memory was cleared. Minimum and maximum temperature memories are NOT programmable (see HI/LO ALARMS). Below are the FOUR different memory features: • MIN/MAX: Minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) tempera- ture achieved with time-of-day and date occurred since the last time the memory was cleared. –AND– • 24-HOUR: Minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) tempera- ture achieved for each hour within a 24-hour period. • 7-DAY: Minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) temperature achieved for each day within a 7-day period. –OR– • 31-DAY: Minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) tempera- ture achieved each day during a 31-day period and the time-of-day it occurred.
