INPUT WIRING AND NOTES
1. Wiring for RTD and Ω type:
The 4-wire connection is adopted, which is shown as F1 in the above drawing.
Two wires on the left side of the plug are connected to one end of the RTD or
resistance, and two wires on the right side of the plug are connected to the other
end of the RTD or resistance.
Special Notes : the 4-wire connection plug cannot be used as USB interface
purpose. It cannot be plugged into any USB sockets of computers or other devices so as
to avoid damage
PAGE -09

2. Wiring for DC mV signals:
Pure copper conductor wires, plugs, connection lugs should be used for
connection, which is shown as F2 in the above drawing. In order to minimize the
influence of thermoelectric potentials, the surface feculences should be eliminated timely. The
thermoelectric potentials for some materials and copper are as follows for reference.
With regard to thermocouple or mV signals, wait for at least 5 minutes after the plug
is inserted into the instrument, and start to measure after thermal balance so as to
reduce the impact of thermoelectric potential!
Wiring with the manual reference end compensation mode (MAN) or the external reference end
compensation mode (EXT): Compensation wires are used for connection from the thermocouple
to the constant temperature oven, and pure copper wires and plugs are used for connection from
the constant temperature oven to the instrument. With regard to the external compensation mode
(EXT), a four-wire Pt100 platinum resistance is required to be inserted into the constant
temperature oven, and a
four-wire plug is required to be connected to the RTD socket of the instrument,
which is shown as F4 in the above drawing.
Note 1: Insulation between the external wires of each socket should be ensured, or the
measurement results will be affected.
Note 2: If any signals exceeding 5V or 100mA are input, the instrument will be damaged.

KEYPAD OPERATION
PAGE -12

Keys are divided into three types including the short keys, long keys andcombination keys. Long
keys or key combinations (keys should be pressed and hold for 2 seconds) are used to realize the
functions of Set, Cancel, RJ or Cal, and
short keys are used to realize other functions.
(1) Power Key: Power switch, the automatic shut-off function can be realized when the menu
parameter AutoFF is not equal to 0. That ’ s to say, automatic shut-off can be realized when no key-
press time is larger than or equal to the time set by AutoFF (unit: minute), and automatic shut-off is
canceled when AutoFF is equal to 0.
(2) Backlight Key : Backlight switch. The absolute value of the menu parameter Auto.b.L is the
backlight ’ s automatic shut-off time (second), and the backlight ’ s automatic shut-off function is
canceled in case of Auto.b.L=0. The positive and negative signs of Auto.b.L indicate that if the
buzzer sound for key-press and alarm exceeding the lower/upper limit is allowed or not: buzzer
sound is allowed when Auto.b.L is no less than zero, and buzzer sound is not allowed when Auto.b.L
is less than zero.
(3) Key 1: in the measuring state, short press “ Key 1 ” to switch display unit; press “ Key 1 ” and hold
it for 2 seconds to realize the “ Set ” function and enter menu settings. See “ Menu Settings ” at page 18
for details.
( 4) Key 2:
1) In the measuring state, short press “ Key 2 ” to select mathematic
measurement functions: The functions can be switched in the eight states of
“ basic measurement values- REL-MAX-MIN-AVG- PP-s-n ” . In which,
a) When no any “ REL-MAX-MIN-AVG- PP-SN ” signs appear, the value is
the current measurement value.
b) REL is relative measurement value. It is similar to “ manual zeroing ” ,
subtracting the “ reference value ” from the current value, i.e. the REL value =
current measurement value xi – reference value. The “ reference value ” is the
measurement value in the beginning of star-up, or the measurement vale in
the beginning of altering input tyPE, or the measurement value in the
moment of pressing “ Cancel ” .
REL can be used to measure very small temperature differences and realize
the function of digital Beckmann thermometer.
c) MAX is the maximum measurement value. It is the maximum
measurement value since start-up (or after pressing “ Cancel ” ).
d) MIN is the minimum measurement value. It is the minimum measurement value since start-up (or
after pressing “ Cancel ” ).
e) AVG is the average measurement value. It is the average value since
start-up (or after pressing “ Cancel ” ):
PAGE -13

When the sampling number n exceeds 1 million times, the average value
calculation will be suspended and the displayed AVG value remain the same
f) P-P is the peak to peak value during measurement. It is equal to the peak
to peak value for the measurement results since start-up (or after pressing
“ Cancel ” ), i.e. P-P=MAX - MIN.
g) SN is the standard deviation and sampling number, and s and n
respectively refer to the standard deviation and sampling number below. The
first displayed value of SN is the standard deviation, which is equal to the
measurement value standard deviation since start-up (or after pressing
“ Cancel ” ):.
When the sampling number n exceeds 1 million times, the deviation value
calculation will be suspended and the displayed value remain the same.
h) The second displayed value of SN is the sampling number, which is equal
to the sampling number since start-up (or after pressing “ Cancel ” ):
n ≤ 999,999. n is shown as “ OVER ” in case of n ≥ 1,000,000, which is a prompt that the
average value and the standard deviation are the measurement results up to 1,000,000
times.
Notes: When the sampling number exceeds 1 million times, the average value,
standard deviation and sampling number will be suspended and remain the same, and
the measurement for REL/MAX/MIN/P-P is still progressing and is not subject to the
sampling number.

press “ Key 2 ” and hold it for 2 seconds to realize the function of menu
backwards.
4) In the menu state, short press “ Key 2 + Key 1 ” at the same time can also
realize the function of menu backwards.
5) In the calibration state, press “ Key 2 ” to cancel (ESCAPE) the calibration
function, and then press “ Key 4 ” to exit the calibration state.
6) In the measurement state, press “ Key 2 + Key 4 ” and hold them for 2
seconds to calibrate internal compensation errors of thermocouple reference
ends.
(5) Key 3:
1) In the measurement state, press “ Key 3 ” briefly to change the display resolution.
2) In the measurement state, long press “ Key 3 ” for 2 seconds to select the compensation modes
for thermocouple reference ends.
a) INT is the internal compensation mode: see 3.(3) above for its wiring.
b) EXT is the external compensation mode: see 3.(4) above for its wiring.
c) MAN is manual compensation mode for the reference ends ’ temperatures: see 3.(4) above for its
wiring, and the menu parameter mAn.tmP should be set to the temperature of constant temperature
oven.
3) In the calibration state, press “ Key 3 ” to skip the current calibration point
(as well as other relevant calibration point) and enter the next calibration point.
4) In the menu parameter setting state, “ Key 3 ” is the decrease key.
PAGE -15

( 6) Key 4:
1) In the measurement state, short press “ Key 4 ” for “ HOLD ” function, which means that the
current measurement values and all mathematical measurement results remain unchanged until
“ Key 4 ” is short pressed again to deactivate the “ hold ” state. When exiting the menu, “ HOLD ” is
canceled.
2) In the measurement state:
a) When the menu parameter CAL.Cod is equal to 808, pressing “ Key 4 ” for long can be used for
user calibration, and long pressing “ Key 2 + Key 4 ” can be used for calibration of compensation
errors of the thermocouple internal 18 (INT) reference ends.
b) When the menu parameter CAL.Cod is equal to 5600, long pressing “ Key 4 ” restores the factory
calibration data and settings.
3) In the menu parameter setting state, “ Key 4 ” is the increase key.
MENU SETTINGS
Long press “ Key 1 ” (i.e. SET key) for 2 seconds to enter the menu. Once “ Set ” key is short pressed,
the parameter name is displayed first, then if “ Set ” key is pressed again the parameter value will be
displayed which can be modified with the keys of . Long press “ Key 1 ” to switch unit ℃ / ℉ / K for
parameter mAn.tmP, lowEr.L, UPPEr.L. The set menu parameters are saved when exiting the menu.
The set parameters will not be saved in case of low battery voltage ( “ LOWBAT ” ) or automatically
exiting the menu without key-press for 30 seconds.
The menu settings are as follows.
PAGE -16

MENU SETTINGS
PAGE -17

(1) Input Signal Type – tyPE: There are corresponding signs for thermal resistances and
thermocouples. And the resistance /millivolt /milliampere ranges are signed with their units
Ω /mV/mA respectively. In which, both tyPE=0 and tyPE=1 mean Pt100, and the main difference
for the two types is that tyPE=0 is smaller measurement span but more stability than tyPE=1.
(2) Sampling Rate - S_rAte: The sampling features low rate but high accuracy in case of
S_rAtE=0; the sampling features high rate but low accuracy in case of S_rAtE=2; thereby
S_rAtE=1 is always adopted.
(3) Filter Time Constant – FiLt: The larger FiLt will have the stronger on filter action, however, the
response will slower. FiLt can be set to 2 or 3 or commonly 1 in case of slow input variable.
(4) Start-up Customization – ConFig: If the current mathematic measurementmode, display unit,
resolution and reference end compensation mode are expected
to be kept for each start-up in the future, then the menu parameter “ ConFig ” should be set to 1, so
that the current measurement and display forms can be saved after exiting the menu (the ConFig
return to zero automatically at the same time).
(5) Automatic Shut-off Time – AutoFF: Its value represents the automatic shut-off time (minutes)
in case of no key-press, and the function of automatic shut-off will be canceled in case of
AutoFF=0.
(6)Automatic Backlight Shut-off Time - Auto.b.L: Its absolute value is the automatic backlight
shut-off time (second), the automatic backlight shut-off
function will be canceled in case of Auto.b.L=0, and the negative sign only means that the buzzer
sound for key-press and alarm is not allowed.
(7) Instrument Calibration Code - CAL.Cod: User calibration is allowed in case of CAL.Cod=808;
it will restore the factory calibration data and settings in case of CAL.Cod=5600; detector error
correction together with instrument is allowed in the case of CAL.Cod=1 5
(8) Sensor Correction Value (Offset) - OFF.SEt: The measured value is translated in the form of
electric quantity value, i.e. xi=xi + OFF.SEt. Only the electric quantity value can be used for
setting.
(9) The manual setting value for reference end ’ s temperature - mAn.tmp: Set the menu parameter
mAn.tmp to the temperature value of the constant temperature oven in case of adopting the MAN
compensation mode.
DESCRIPTION OF MENU PARAMETERS
PAGE -18

.
When verify the indicating value errors for the thermocouple of the instrument, sometimes it is
inconvenient to use INT compensation mode, and the MAN compensation mode can be used. With
regard to the MAN compensation mode, use copper conductor wires to connect the instrument and
standard mV signal source, verify the basic indicating value errors, and then verify the compensation
errors of the interior (INT) reference ends. Finally, errors with the INT compensation mode are the
synthesis of the basic indicating value error and
compensation error.
(10) The Upper and Lower Limit Alarm — LowEr.L and UPPEr.L:
1) The lower limit alarm value - LowEr.L: Once the measured value x is smaller than the set lower
limit value LowEr.L, LOAL alarm will be generated immediately. After the LOAL occurs, only
the measured increases to no less than (LowEr.L + alarm hysteresis error δ) can the LOAL alarm
be released.
The alarm sound will stop automatically after 60 seconds, or can be
deactivated by pressing any key.
2) The upper limit alarm value - UPPEr.L: Once the measured value x is larger than the set upper
limit value UPPEr.L, HIAL alarm will be generated immediately. After the HIAL occurs, only the
measured reduces to no more than (UPPEr.L- alarm hysteresis error δ) can the HIAL alarm be
released. The alarm sound will stop automatically after 60 seconds, or can be deactivated by
pressing any key.
3) The alarm hysteresis error δ is a fixed value for each tyPE, which cannot be changed by users.
Δ≈(0.2 0.8)Δ (electric quantity). The alarm hysteresis error can avoid oscillation alarm near the
alarm points.
PAGE -19

When the instrument exceeds the tolerance according to measurement verification or after
repairing, user can perform calibration, and the factory calibration coefficient can be resumed if
there are errors in the user calibration. User calibration includes instrument coefficient calibration
and temperature error
calibration for the interior reference ends. Before calibration, new batteries should be used, signal
wires should be connected well, the instrument should be placed in the environmen with stable
temperature and humidity, before calibration you should wait for 30 minutes after start-up, and no
obvious external interference factors should be guaranteed, so as to ensure accurate calibration
results.
( 1) Selection of standard device: Four-wire real material object resistance should
be adopted for Ω standard signals, and no simulated resistance can be used; the
internal resistance of the mV standard signal source should be less than 500 Ω . The
standard device ’ s expanded uncertainty or tolerance should be no more than one
third of the instrument ’ s tolerance Δ, and enough stability should be ensured for
the standard device during calibration. Please see the below table for requirements of the standard
device:
