4. THERMOMETER DESCRIPTIONS
5. OPERATION
WARNING
The measurement range is for thermometers only. Users should choose proper probe
types for dierent kinds of applications. Please make sure the target to be measured
will not exceed the temperature range of the probe to avoid permanent damage to the
thermocouple probe.
Caution: To avoid electric shock and thermometer damage, do not measure the live
circuit with the thermocouple probe voltage exceeding 24V AC RMS or 60V DC.
EMC/RFI: Readings may be aected if the unit is operated within radiofrequency
electromagnetic eld strength of approximately 3 volts per meter, but the instrument's
performance will not be permanently aected.
5.1 Function Selection
1. Press Mode Key (2) for scrolling display functions as follows:
Display Function
Here will show the emissivity data. (The default emissivity is
0.95.)
Press Mode key (2), then press Up key (4) or Down key (3) to
set the emissivity, then press Mode key (2) to conrm it. The
emissivity can be changed from 0.10 (10E) to 1 (100E).
Press Mode key (2) for the Maximum (MAX), Minimum (MIN),
Dierent between MAX and MIN (DIF) and Average (AVG)
modes. During the measurement, the special modes reading
will be displayed beside the mode icon.
Press Up key (4) or Down key (3) to change the High Alarm
(HAL) or Lo Alarm (LAL), then press Meas. Key (6) to conrm
it. For example: When reading 26.9 °C < LAL 27 °C, the Low
icon will ash, and you will hear a beep sound.
Connect the thermocouple with the thermocouple socket (5) and
put the probe in/on the target. The Thermometer will display the
temperature automatically without pressing any button. To see
the minimum or maximum data during the probe measurement,
please hold down the Up key (4) or Down key (3).
After measuring high temp, the probe may remain HOT for
a while.
After taking the temperature, press Mode key (2) for the Memory
(M00), then press Meas. key (6) to save the measurement.
Under the Memory (M00), press the Up key (4) or Down key (3)
to display the record.
** The Thermometer will automatically shut o if left idle for more than 60sec. unless in PRB
mode. (In PRB mode, it will shut o if left idle for more than 12 minutes.)
5.2 Other Function Selection
In E, MAX, MIN, DIF,
AVG mode:
In MAX, MIN mode: Hold
the Meas. key (6)
In all modes: First, hold
the Meas. key (6)
Press Up key (4) for LOCK mode ON/OFF. The lock mode is
handy for continuous monitoring of temperatures for up to 60
minutes.
Press Down key (3) for °C or °F transferred.
It shows RED colour when
the reading is close to the
maximum value and BLUE
when close to the minimum.
While the temperature is
between the maximum and
minimum, the bar will display
YELLOW.
A. LCD Backlight: always on.
B. Press Down key (3) for laser pointer function ON/OFF.
5.3 Temperature Measurement
1. Aim the Thermometer at the measured target with Lens (7) and press Meas. key (6) to
display the surface temperature. The Distance: Spot is 60:1. Please make sure the target
area is within the eld of view.
** Data logger function (SD Card,USB): Recommend to clamp “Micro SD Card Switch” (11)
with tweezers and pull it up to enable the function. Do not push the switch too hard.

5.4 LCD Error Messages
The Thermometer incorporates visual diagnostic messages as follows:
‘Hi’ or ’Lo’ is displayed when the temperature is measured
outside the HAL and LAL settings.
‘Er2’ is displayed when the Thermometer is exposed to rapid
changes in the ambient temperature. ‘Er3’ is displayed when
the ambient temperature exceeds the range of 0°C (32°F)
~50°C (122°F). The Thermometer should be allowed plenty
of time (minimum 30 minutes) to stabilize to the working/
room temperature.
Error 5~9 is necessary to reset the Thermometer for all
other error messages. To reset it, turn the instrument o,
remove the battery and wait for a minimum of one minute,
reinsert the battery and turn it on. If the error message
remains, please contact the Service Department for further
assistance.
‘Hi’ or ’Lo’ is displayed when the temperature being
measured is outside of the measurement range.

6. MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
BEFORE ATTEMPTING BATTERY REMOVAL OR REPLACEMENT, DISCONNECT
EXTERNAL PROBES FROM AN ARTICLE UNDER TEST.
6.1 Fitting and replacing the battery
The Thermometer incorporates visual low battery indication as follows:
‘Battery OK’: Thermometer function normal
‘Battery Low’: battery needs to be replaced, Thermometer still
function normally
‘Battery Exhausted’: Thermometer does not function
When the ‘Low Battery’ icon indicates the battery is low, the battery should be replaced
immediately with AA, 1.5V batteries. Please note: It is essential to turn the instrument o
before replacing the battery; otherwise, the Thermometer may malfunction.
Dispose of used battery promptly and keep away from children.
If the device is not used for a long time, turn the power o, remove and store the batteries in
a cool, dry place.

6.2 Storage & Cleaning
Store the Thermometer at average room temperature. The sensor lens is the most delicate part
of the Thermometer. The lens should be kept clean at all times. Take care when cleaning the lens
using only a soft cloth or cotton swab with distilled water or medical alcohol, allowing the lens to
entirely dry before using the Thermometer. Do not submerge any part of the Thermometer.
