1. GETTING STARTED with your Presidium Gem Indicator
Powering up your PGI
This tester can be powered either through electrical
power via the Presidium Universal USB Adaptor (not
included in your package) or through the use of batteries.
If electrical power is preferred, please ensure that only
the Presidium Universal USB Adaptor is used.
Connect one end of the USB cable provided to the
Universal USB Adaptor and the other end to the USB inlet
on the unit (Fig.1.1).
If batteries are preferred, please use 3x AAA batteries.
The use of alkaline batteries is recommended as it should
generally give approximately 3 hours of continuous
operation, while the use of ordinary batteries will give a
shorter operating life.
Remove the battery cover lid on the side of the tester.
This is the side of the tester with the Presidium logo
wording on the top (Fig 1.2).
