1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing TPI brand products. The TPI 1010a Indoor
Air Quality (IAQ) Meter is a state of the art, easy to use tester designed
to provide you with the necessary measurements to monitor and make
adjustments to air handling devices. The instrument is ruggedly con-
structed and comes with a 3 Year unit and 2 Year sensor Guarantee.
2. General Overview
The 1010a IAQ meter uses state of the art sensors to measure humidi-
ty, carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and temperature. The
CO and CO2 sensors in your meter will need to be replaced periodically
and calibration is recommended once every year.
The CO sensor is electrochemical and this type of sensor is always
active once installed in the unit. Therefore the time the unit is off and
not being used must be taken into account when determining sensor
life. The sensors in your analyzer are warranted for two years. This
warranty does not cover sensors damaged through misuse of the
meter.
You should keep battery power applied to your sensors at all times.
The following guidelines will help prevent damage to your sensors:
Always store your unit in a place where the temperature does not get
down to or below freezing.
Always maintain battery power to the sensors. When the batteries get
low replace them as soon as possible.
Never allow foreign objects or material to enter the sensor holes, dam-
age to the sensor may result.
Never over saturate your sensors by performing tests on equipment
with gas levels beyond the capability of you analyzer.

4. Operation
4.1 Turning On & Off / Performing a Test / Main Display
Always: - Turn the 1010a on outside of the area to be tested. Make sure the
unit is in fresh air (no carbon monoxide present) prior to turning on. This will
allow the CO sensor to set to zero properly.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) in parts per million (ppm) is displayed at the top, car-
bon monoxide (CO) in parts per million (ppm) is displayed in the middle,
temperature in °F or °C (selectable), and humidity in percent are displayed at
the bottom of the main display.
The battery indicator is located at the bottom left of the display. When the
batteries become low they must be replaced to maintain proper operation.
If 30ppm or more CO is measured the 1010a will beep and the display will
flash red as a warning. This alarm point is adjustable. Additional functions
can be activated during testing. Please see next sections.

Press the key and the 1010a will begin a 30 second countdown. During
this time the 1010a performs a self diagnostic and sets the CO sensor to zero.
Once the countdown ends the 1010a will display CO2, CO, Temperature, and
Humidity. NOTE: If the CO2 sensor seems to read out of specification perform
the Ambient CO2 Sensor Reset as described in section 4.9.
Enter the area to be tested, the measured values will be displayed.
To turn the 1010a off, press and hold the key down until the 1010a turns
off.

4.4 Temperature / Clock Display Modes
4.5 Activating the Backlight
4.6 Printing Measurements (Requires A740 Printer)
Ambient Temperature Dew Point Temperature
Indicated by “DP” in the
display
Wet Bulb Temperature
Indicated by “WB” in
the display
Repeatedly pressing the key from the main display cycles through dew
point temperature, wet bulb temperature, and ambient temperature displays.
Pressing the key switches the temperature display between °F and °C.
Pressing the key from the main display cycles between temperature
and clock display. To set the clock please refer to section 4.6.
Pressing the key turns the display backlight on and off. Power
consumption is much higher when the backlight is activated. The backlight
will automatically turn off 30 seconds after it is activated. To conserve bat-
tery life the backlight should only be used when necessary.
Align the infrared window of the A740 printer with the infrared window of
the 1010a located on the upper right side of the meter. Keep the printer in
clear line of sight approximately 6 to 8 inches away from the 1010a. Press
and hold the key for approximately 2 to 3 seconds and the 1010a will
send test data to the printer.
