6. Press the Measurement Trigger once again to make another

To take accurate temperature measurement of reflective surfaces
with low emissivity, 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 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.
5. Once the laser is pointed to the desired point of measurement,
release the Measurement Trigger and the Upper Display will show
the last measured temperature.
4. Keep holding the Measurement Trigger as you move the TP30 if
you wish to continually take a measurement of the surface.

Distance-Spot Ratio
The ThermoPro TP30 measures surface temperature based on the
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.
surface temperature measurement of most organic materials and
painted objects. If you would like to improve the measurement
accuracy of different objects, you can refer to the emissivity table
below.
The default emissivity of this device is 0.95, which is suitable for Objects Emissivity Objects Emissivity
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 thermometer from the surface of measurement is 7.87inch
(20cm) away from the surface. This creates a spot measurement

Safe Use & Care
DO NOT point the laser beam at another person or animal.
DO NOT attempt to point laser beam at an aircraft.
Avoid direct/indirect eye contact with the laser-beam. Laser
radiation may cause eye damage.
DO NOT view the beam with optical instruments.
If using near bystanders, make them
looking directly into the laser beam.
aware of the dangers of
Make sure to insert the batteries in accordance with the correct
polarities.
DO NOT allow children to operate the device.
Use two 1.5V AAA batteries when replacing the batteries within
the device.
Keep the thermometer away from electromagnetic fields
produced by objects such as arc welders and induction heaters.
DO NOT expose the thermometer to direct sources of heat for
extended periods of time.
The thermometer measures surface temperature, not internal
temperature. Do not use it as a reliable source to measure body
temperatures.
This helps avoid the potential effects of incorrect
disposal on the environment and human health.
