I'M 99% sure you need to press b4 removing from water to lock results in window so you can read.

Mine only has one button "on/off". The circle under that is only a logo that reads "HMD". Another responder says, "I'M 99% sure you need to press b4 removing from water to lock results in window so you can read." This in inaccurate. You simply turn the tester on, stick in the water for a moment, pull it out and read it. Easy as pie.

I Would Say, No. Mine Wouldn't Respond To Holding The Test Button In Even With The Batteries Installed Correctly.

Hi, Janet, No you don't hold the button down. Just push it down and it should start up and do the same to stop it. Ruth

Not sure....there's 2 round button slots or testers. One for a 3V and one for a 1.5V. I have not used either of those.

Have you installed the CH Control manager? Try using that to test each button. Loading a new profile might help. You can also email support@chproducts.com and they are great help.

The button is pushed to activate the unit and detect any voltage that might be present. You push the button and hold it and the red light illuminates to indicate voltage is present. You will get a brief flash of the red light when pushing the button as the unit performs a self test.

It is the Second button on the left side hold it for 2 seconds and keep holding until your color comes up, if you still have your instructions they tell you everything you need to know.

You don't have to hold a button. Its a switch. Up for on and down for off (or it could be the other way around as I can't remember which direction) but the switch will stay locked in what ever direction you put it.

I bought this for my husband and he said he has no experience with the Test-Um's Resi-Tester. Sorry we could not help.

This also confused me. You hav to press and hold those buttons while the unit is off, not after being turned on.

I believe the zero button clears memory. The max hold will give you the highest reading on the test. The center button will give you a reading as it is taken along the test area.

The bottom two buttons are for tuning. One has a + and one has a -. The screen will display which station your on.

Control solution did not affect the test. What exact is not working, where is the problem?

Yes, you can use the "hold" button to keep the display up for a few seconds after removing the package. I find it is enough to get the job done. This scale is very accurate and dependable. Still very happy with the purchase.

Sorry for the delay. Yes it does have a "Hold" button. Programmable start/stop. I like it because it is easy to use.
