5. Betjeningsvejledning
5.1. Tænd/sluk
Press and hold the power button to turn the unit on or off. A short press will toggle the backlight.
5.2. Selecting Refrigerant
Use the 'MENU' button to navigate to the refrigerant selection. Use the arrow buttons to scroll through the available refrigerants (e.g., R22, R410A, R134a, R404A, R407C, R448A, R449A, R452A, R32, R454B, R454C, R407A, R407F, R422B, R422C, R422D, R507A, R513A, R1234yf, R1234ze, R600a, R290, R744). Press 'ENTER' to confirm your selection. The SM480V supports downloading new refrigerants via the Job Link app.
5.3. Målinger
Once connected to the system and refrigerant is selected, the manifold will display real-time pressure and temperature readings. Superheat and subcooling values will be calculated automatically based on the connected thermocouples.

5.4. Datalogning
The SM480V can log data internally. To initiate data logging:
- Navigate to the data logging menu.
- Set the desired logging duration and interval.
- Start the logging process. The manifold will store measurements, which can be downloaded later via the Micro USB port.
5.5. System Tightness Test
Utilize the temperature compensated system tightness test feature to accurately detect leaks in the system. Follow the on-screen prompts to perform the test.
5.6. Wireless Connectivity (Job Link App)
Connect your SM480V to the Fieldpiece Job Link app on your smartphone or tablet for remote monitoring, advanced diagnostics, and report generation. This allows you to view readings from a distance and manage job data efficiently.
6. Vedligeholdelse
6.1. Rensning
Wipe the manifold with a damp klud. Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler eller opløsningsmidler. Sørg for, at enheden er tør, før den opbevares.
6.2. Udskiftning af batteri
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display to ensure continuous operation and accurate readings.
6.3. Sensorkalibrering
Regularly check and calibrate sensors as per manufacturer recommendations to maintain accuracy. Refer to the Job Link app or Fieldpiece website for detailed calibration procedures.
6.4. Firmwareopdateringer
Periodically check for firmware updates via the Fieldpiece website or Job Link app. Updates can provide new features, refrigerant profiles, and performance improvements. Use the Micro USB port to update firmware.
7. Fejlfinding
