Carefully place probes on a heat/cold resistant surface or rack until they reach room temperature. • The A C adapter can present safety concerns if misused or damaged. T o av oid the risk of electric shock or fire, do not use the AC adapter outdoors or in a dusty , dirty , or wet environment.
• Probes are fragile devices which can be damaged by mechanical shock, ov erheating, and absorption of moisture or fluids in the wires or hub . Damage may not be visibly apparent but nevertheless can cause drift, in - stability , and loss of accuracy .

7 Displa y Functions The 1521 operates in an y of se ve ral modes which determine what information is visible in the l ower al phanumeric portion of the display . The MODE button changes the mode. This b utton can be pressed repeatedly unt il a desired mode is set.
Each of these operating mod es is described in the sections that follow . 7.1 Blank Mode This mode is identified by “Blank” that temporarily app ears on the display .
In this mode nothing appears on the alphanumeric porti on of the display . Use this mode if you are only interested in the latest measurements and want to sim - plify the appearance of the display . The message “Prb cal expired”, “M tr cal e xpired”, “Recharge Needed”, or “Probe is locked” may be displayed.
7.5 Units This mode is identified by “Un its: C/ Ω /F/K/R” that a ppears on the display . This mode allo ws you to select the unit of measurement: C for degrees Celsius, Ω for resistance in ohms, F for de grees F ahrenheit, K for K elvin, and R for Rankine.
7.8 CAL MODE The calibration menu contains fu nctions for setting pro be and instrument cali - bration parameters. If a probe parameter is changed, the probe parameter is up - loaded into the INF O-CON prob e connector wh en the CAL MODE is exited or after scrolling through the entire menu.
