Digital Inclinometer

EASY TO USE
Range-of-motion can be read directly after the joint has been taken through its range.
Place the inclinometer near the joint to be measured; set the “alternate zero”; move the joint through its range; press the “hold” button. Read range- of-motion.

Operating Instructions:

NOTE : If the unit has been dropped, follow calibration and set-up instructions on the following page.

on / off / alternate zero button
Press once to turn the LCD display screen on. Press the button again to toggle the screen measurement between absolute zero and alternate (relative) zero mode. REF icon displays when the unit is operating in alternate zero modes. Long press to turn off the LCD.
hold button
If you want to lock the reading while performing a measurement, simply press the hold button once the measurement settles. The angle reading will freeze and you can record the reading. An H icon will appear on the LCD. You can cancel this function by pressing the hold button a second time. You will now be viewing live angle measurements. Note: changing from relative to absolute zero modes cannot be done when the H icon is visible.
light button
Press once to open/close the backlight.

absolute zero and alternate (relative) zero

absolute zero modes: when in absolute zero modes, there is no REF icon on the LCD. If the REF icon is present, short-press the on / off / alternate zero buttons to enter absolute zero modes. LCD displays the angle of the absolute horizontal level. If the unit is rotated clockwise from absolute zero a + sign is present in front of values. If the unit is rotated counterclockwise from absolute zero a – sign is present.
For absolute (horizontal zero) measurement, put the unit near the joint that needed to be measured.
The inclinometer shows the angle between the inclinometer plane and the horizontal plane. Allow the reading to settle before noting the angle.
alternate (relative) zero mode: Setting an alternate reference point allows you to set any angle to ZERO. This new ZERO is now a reference point from which to take measurements. For in- stance, you may want a surface that is actually 25° off absolute zero (horizontal) displayed as ZERO so you can measure all other angles relative to that benchmark. See the example below for Relative angle measurement:

1. If the unit is in absolute zero mode, the REF icon will not appear on the LCD. Put the inclinometer on the surface that is actually 20° off the horizontal plane.
   The unit reads 20°.

2. Press the on / off / alternate zero button to toggle to alternate zero modes (the icon REF is now visible and the angle readout is now ZERO).

3. Put the inclinometer on the surface that is actually 30° off the horizontal. The “10.0°” shown on the display is relative to the 20° off the horizontal plane.
   

This angle readout is 20° in absolute zero mode| This angle readout is 0° in alternate zero mode| This angle readout is 10° in alternate zero mode

LCD screen icons

Replace batteries when the Battery Power icon is flashing. Only flashing when voltage below 2.2V.
Indicates that the inclinometer is measuring in alternate zero (relative) mode.
This icon appears on the screen when the HOLD function is activated.
-1- Indicates that the inclinometer is calibrated in one direction.
-2- Indicates that the inclinometer is calibrated for another direction

Calibration

The digital inclinometer has been pre-calibrated at the factory. The product should only be recalibrated if it has been dropped. (see steps below)

1. Place the unit on a flat horizontal surface, press the hold button, and on / off / alternate zero buttons at the same time.
   The calibration mode is activated and a “-1” will be displayed.

2. Press the on / off / alternate zero buttons again, and “-1-” will flash briefly. Do not move the unit until “-2-” displays.

3. Rotate the unit 180 degrees in the same location and press the on / off / alternate zero buttons, “-2-” will flash briefly. Do not move until the unit has completed the calibration and reset the display to the current level.
