OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Displaying Temperatures
1. Plug a thermocouple(s) into the T1, T2, T3, or T4 input connector located at the top of the thermometer.
2. Turn the thermometer ON by pressing .
3. Press to select the preferred temperature scale (Celsius, Fahrenheit, or Kelvin).
4. Hold or attach the thermocouple(s) to the location requiring a temperature measurement. The
temperature reading appears in the primary display.
5. Press to toggle the T1, T2, T3, T1-T2,T1-T3, and T2-T3 readings to show in the primary or
secondary displays.
Notes:
•“ - - - -” is displayed when a thermocouple is defective or not connected.
•OL (overload) is displayed when the temperature being measured is outside the thermometer’s range.

Note: If the maximum number of events have
been recorded, the meter displays FULL. Refer to
the Setup Menu: Erase the Memory procedure to
clear the events.
2. Press to record an event. Press the
button again to stop recording.
Using the Infrared (IR) Thermometer
CAUTION: To prevent personal injury, do not stare
into the laser beam. This is a Class 2 laser product.
1. Plug the output of the IR thermometer into the
IR input on the side of the TIF3340. IR TEMP
appears on the display.
2. Aim the IR light at the location to measure.
3. Press . The temperature appears in the
tertiary display.
Shutting OFF the TIF3340
1. Press and hold the button while the
secondary display counts down from three
to zero. The thermometer shuts off after the
display reaches zero.
NOTE: If the sleep timer (SLP) is enabled, the
thermometer automatically shuts down after
twenty (20) minutes of inactivity.

Using Offset to Adjust for Probe Errors
The offset option can adjust thermometer
readings to compensate for the errors of a
specic thermocouple and IR temperature. The
adjustment range allowed is: ± 9.0°F or ± 5.0°C.
1. While in Setup Menu, plug the thermocouple
into the input connector.
2. Place the thermocouple in a known, stable
temperature environment (such as an ice dry
well calibrator). Allow the readings to stabilize.
4. Press or until the primary reading
matches the calibration temperature.
3. Press ENTER to store new setting in memory.
Note: The primary display shows the temperature
plus the offset, and the secondary display shows
the offset. Individual offsets can be stored for T1,
T2, IR, T3, or T4.
