OPERATION
1. Insert the probe plug into the receptacle located on the front of the thermometer.
The plug and receptacle are keyed with a small and a large pin. Make certain
that the plug is inserted properly.
2. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit on.
3. Press the °C/°F button to display the temperature in Fahrenheit (°F will appear
on the display) or Celsius (°C will appear on the display).
4. Set the thermometer to desired resolution 0.1° or 1°.
5. Place the probe tip in contact with the material to be measured and read the
temperature on the display.
MAX MODE
In the MAX mode, the thermometer will display the highest temperature reading
achieved. It does not display the current temperature if it falls below the MAX reading.

60° 60°
40° 60°
Example: In the MAX mode
Press the MAX button (MAX will appear on the display). The thermometer will display
the maximum temperature reading on the LCD display. Press the MAX button again to
exit MAX recording mode.
HOLD
Press the HOLD button to “freeze” the display at the current reading (HOLD will
appear in the display). Press the HOLD button again to return to the current reading.
PROBES
The probe supplied are ultra-fast response Type K thermocouple naked bead probes
with 4’ leads and teflon insulation. Maximum operating temperature range for this
thermocouple is 500°F (260°C).
An accessory stainless steel triple purpose probe with handle is available. An
accessory surface probe is also available (see accessories).
Longer leads and extension may be used. The lead effect for 164 feet (50 meters) is
generally less the 0.2°C with a limit of error of 2.2°C. Type-K wire and Type-K
connectors must be used.
RECORDER OUTPUT
A voltage proportional to the display reading appears at the recorder OUTPUT socket
located on the right side of the unit. Output is via a standard 3-pole 3.5 mm jack.
Output speci ications are as ollows:
1mV output per degree in the 0.1° display mode
0.1 mV output per degree in the 1° display mode
Output examples:
Mode Readings Output
0.1° 26.5° 26.5 mV
1° 1500° 150.0 mV
OFFSET ADJUSTMENT (Fine tuning)
The offset controls are set at the factory to allow for the variations found in standard
thermocouples. By adjusting the offset controls, found on the side of the unit, you can
optimize measurement accuracy for a particular thermocouple at a particular
temperature.
This unit has been calibrated Traceable
®
to standards provided by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). While offset adjustments are possible,
they will interfere with the factory calibration. Traceable
®
recalibration must be made
by the factory (see ecalibration).
BENCH STAND/WALL MOUNT
This unit is supplied with a bench stand that is on the back of the case. Locate the
rectangular slots on the raised portion of the back of the unit. With your thumb and
forefinger, lift the stand out. To close the stand, simply snap it shut.
This unit may be wall mounted by using a screw. Set the screw into the wall at the
location desired, the head of the screw will need to slip into the receptacle on the back
of the unit, so do not set the screw flush to the wall. Once the screw has been properly
set, hang the unit in place by sliding the receptacle on the back of the unit over the
head of the screw.

DISPLAY MESSAGES
OL indicates that no probe is present indicates that the battery is low and needs
replacement (see batter replacement).
ALL OPERATIONAL DIFFICULTIES
If this thermometer does not function properly for any reason, please replace the
battery with a new high quality battery (see “Battery eplacement” section). Low
battery power can occasionally cause any number of “apparent” operational difficulties.
eplacing the battery with a new fresh battery will solve most difficulties.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT:
A “ ” symbol will appear on the LCD display when the battery needs replacement.
Before replacing the battery turn the unit off and unplug the probe. emove the three
screws from the back of the thermometer and lift off the back of the case. (NOTE:
When the top middle screw is removed, the 2-piece stand with come off the case).
emove the exhausted battery and replace it with a new 9-colt alkaline battery.
eplace the back of the thermometer, replace the 2-piece stand, reinstall the three
screws and tighten securely.
