Introduction
The Mito Meter is a compact, simple to use, but
sophisticated, general purpose EMF
(Electromagnetic Field) meter that can measure
EMF intensity from: cell towers, mobile phones,
smart meters, Wi-Fi routers, various cordless
devices, magnetic and electric fields from power
lines, fuse boxes, home appliances and more.
The Mito Meter can also detect spy cameras,
wireless bugs, and other such devices across a
very wide frequency range (see details below).
It was designed, with great care, to assist EMF
sensitive people; allowing them to monitor their
environment during daily activities with a simple
device that may be carried in a pocket or purse.
(Weighing less than 2 ounces, or 50 grams). The
Mito Meter may also be connected to a computer,
making it an invaluable tool in research and tech
environments.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
This detector shows the intensity of measurements
using 9 LEDs: Green,Yellow and Red.
(Green = low, Red = high)
These colors are intended as a visual guide , and not
to indicate safe or unsafe readings. Furthermore, this
device is intended to allow non-professionals to
measure EMF levels with a simple, intuitive interface.
Measurements taken for legal or professional use
require special equipment, and trained operators.

Operation
The Mito Meter is a 3-mode detector, these modes are:
•RF - Radio Frequency
•LFM - Low Frequency Magnetic
•LFE - Low Frequency Electric
It is recommended to fully charge the device before
using it for the first time. To do so, use the supplied
mini-USB cable to connect to a USB charger or
computer. During charging, the LED will show RED –
when fully charged the LED will be off. A full charge
should give 8-10 hours of operation.
Note: On activation the meter will perform a quick (3
second) self-test before full operation. This includes:
•Cycling through the LEDs from left to right,
accompanied by a tone. (If the sound is turned ON).
•The device will then check the battery status and
show the charge:

Turn the meter on with the Power ON/OFF switch.
Use the Mode Switch to select a detection mode:
•RF Mode – the detectors measures radio
frequencies in the defined range. (See
specifications.)
•LF-M Mode – the detector measures low
frequency magnetic fields
•LF-E Mode – the detector measures low
frequency electric fields.
Readings in the Yellow or Red zone, will be
accompanied by a tone; this feature may be disabled
by using the sound on/off switch.
This detector is a peak level detector, which means
that on every update it shows the maximum, or peak
level, detected since the last update. Updates are
recorded approximately 5 times a second for the
LEDs, and twice a second by the PC software.
Note: The Mito Meter is a broadband detector,
meaning it captures all signals from all sources within
the selected mode frequency range at a particular
location. For example: in RF mode, if both a Wi-Fi
router and cell phone transmit at the same time, the
meter will capture both signals and give a combined
result.

Performing Measurements
Switch on the device and select a measurement mode:
There are 9 levels of intensity shown by 9 LEDs: from
GREEN through YELLOW to RED. By matching the LED
reading with the appropriate numbers on the chart,
numerical values can be noted.
The device uses directional antennas for the
measurements, thus it is necessary to carefully rotate
the device in all directions at any location a
measurement is performed. The readings may change
as the device is rotated – the highest reading found is
the correct one.
The RF and LFE antennas are located on the left side
of the device – blocking them with your grip may
reduce the reading. When performing RF and LFE
measurements, the device should be held using the
right hand on the right side of the Meter.
