The backlit LCD displays moisture readings, relative humidity, air temperature, dew point, and other relevant data. Icons indicate measurement mode, battery status, and other functions.
4.3 Meetmodusse
The FLIR MR77 offers multiple measurement capabilities:
- Pinless Moisture: For non-invasive moisture detection up to 0.75 inches (19 mm) deep. Place the back of the meter flat against the surface to be measured.
- Pin Moisture: Use the external pin probe for direct contact measurements in materials like wood or drywall. Insert the pins into the material.
- Relatiewe humiditeit (RH): Meet die persentasietage of moisture in the air using the integrated or external RH sensor.
- Lug temperatuur: Meet omgewingslugtemperatuur.
- Doupunt: Calculates the dew point temperature based on RH and air temperature.
- Non-Contact IR Thermometer: Use the IR button and laser pointer to measure surface temperatures.

5. Onderhoud
5.1 Skoonmaak
Wipe the meter's exterior with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Keep the sensor areas clean and free of debris.
5.2 Sensorvervanging
The temperature/relative humidity sensor (MR01) is field-replaceable. If readings become inaccurate or the sensor is damaged, replace it with an authorized FLIR replacement part. Refer to the full user manual for detailed replacement instructions.
5.3 Berging
Store the FLIR MR77 in a cool, dry place when not in use. Remove the battery if storing for extended periods to prevent leakage.
6. Probleemoplossing
| Probleem | Moontlike oorsaak | Oplossing |
|---|---|---|
| Meter skakel nie aan nie. | Dooie of verkeerd geïnstalleerde battery. | Check battery polarity, replace battery. |
| Inaccurate moisture readings. | Incorrect material group selected; sensor dirty or damaged; external interference. | Verify material group; clean or replace sensor; move away from strong electromagnetic fields. |
| Inaccurate RH/Temperature readings. | Sensor dirty or damaged. | Clean or replace the MR01 sensor. |
| Probleme met Bluetooth-verbinding. | Meter not in pairing mode; app issues; distance from device. | Ensure meter Bluetooth is active; restart app/meter; reduce distance. |
