adapter.
• Two internal 1.2V AA 2400mAh NiMH rechargeable batteries
You must insert the batteries into the instrument before use, even if you plan to run the
instrument on USB power.
1. Holding the instrument rmly, slide the back cover to the right and remove it.
2. Insert the two batteries, ensuring the positive and negative ends are properly
aligned.
3. Replace the back cover by aligning the tabs in the cover with the corresponding
slots in the instrument body, and then sliding the cover to the left until it locks in
place.
NOTE: If the Model L452 is stored without the batteries installed, the internal clock will
need to be reset, as instructed in the following section.
Initial Setup
NOTE: It is recommended to fully charge the batteries before using the instrument (12hrs)
The instrument can be set up two ways:
• DataView Data Logger Control Panel

Channel Configuration
Channels can be congured either through the Data Logger Control Panel or the instrument
interface:
• Consult the Data Logger Control Panel Help system for information about conguration
through the Control Panel.
• Consult “L452 User Interface Screens” later in this Quick Start Guide for a table listing
all conguration screens available through the user interface. For detailed instructions
about how to complete these screens, see the Model L452 User Manual.
When conguring through the instrument’s interface, each of the instrument’s two channels
has its own set of conguration screens; the screens for one channel are essentially identi-
cal to the screens for the other. These screens allow you to:
• Enable and disable the channel. When disabled, measurements are neither recorded
nor displayed for the channel.
• Select the type of input. This can be analog (voltage or current), pulse, or event. Note
that both channels must have the same input type.
• Dene measurement units. These units are used when displaying measurement data.
• Dene scaling. This establishes the relationship between input and measurement units.
• Enable and dene alarm triggers. This determines whether or not (and under what
circumstances) the instrument reports an alarm condition.
Channels must be congured before you start a recording session.
