The emissivity of a material is its efficiency in emitting thermal energy.
Non-reflective surfaces have a higher emissivity (closer to 1) than
reflective surfaces (closer to 0). Inaccurate results may occur when
measuring reflective surfaces such as glass, polished wood, and granite.
The device certification information is
labeled directly on the device. The sticker is
located on the left side of the Lasergrip.
To take accurate temperature measurement of reflective surfaces with
low emissivity, adjust the emissivity value before measurement using the
reference chart. Or, place a strip of masking tape over the surface and
allow for it to adjust to the temperature of the surface for approximately
30 minutes. Measure the surface, scanning the taped section, eliminating
the issue of inaccuracy.
The Lasergrip 1080 measures surface temperature on the basis of
distance to spot diameter ratio (D:S). As the distance between the
thermometer and the surface increases, the total surface area measured
will also increase. With a distance to spot ratio of 12:1 the surface area
measured has a diameter of roughly 1/12 the distance.
For the most accurate results, make sure the target has a surface area
of twice the corresponding spot diameter. Insufficient surface area will
result in inaccurate results. The recommended distance to hold the
Lasergrip from the surface of measurement is 14.17 in (36 cm). This
creates a spot measurement area of 1.18 inches (3 cm) in diameter.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate this equipment.

A new pre-installed 9V battery comes in protective plastic wrap inside
your Lasergrip. Follow the steps below to properly install or replace the
battery.
1. Open the battery cover. For first-time use, take the battery out and
remove the plastic wrapper. [Figure 1.1]
2. Securely connect the battery to the battery terminals, making sure the
leads and terminals are connected correctly. [Figure 1.2]
3. Reinsert the battery back into the compartment.
4. Close the battery cover, making sure that the wires are tucked inside the
battery compartment. [Figure 1.3 ]
Battery Installation & Replacement
NOTE:
• The low battery indicator will appear on the display when the power is running
low. Immediately replace the battery when the icon appears.
• Remove the battery before storing if the Lasergrip is not being used for a long
time.
