It displays total runtime and single-job hours, measures real-time and peak RPM, and reads engine temperature via a probe sensor. The unit supports user-set alert thresholds and selectable backlight modes so you can spot over-revving or overheating at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this device track engine operating hours?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RL-HM035A-M5 records both cumulative total hours and individual job hours so you can separate overall service life from specific runs.
