MULTIFUNCTION IR THERMOMETER

OPERATION MANUAL

          1.     SAFETY RULES

To ensure that the meter is used safely, follow all safety and operating instructions in 

this operation manual. If the meter is not used as described in this operation manual, 

the safety features of this meter might be impaired.

Do not look directly into the laser beam when the device is in use–permanent eye 

damage may result.

Use extreme caution when operating the laser.

Never point the device towards anyone’s eyes.

Keep out of reach of children.

5.     OPERATION

WARNING

The measurement range is for thermometers only. Users should choose proper probe 

types for different kinds of applications. Please make sure the target to be measured 

will not exceed the temperature range of the probe to avoid permanent damage to the 

thermocouple probe.
Caution: To avoid electric shock and thermometer damage, do not measure the live 

circuit with the thermocouple probe voltage exceeding 24V AC RMS or 60V DC.

EMC/RFI: Readings may be affected if the unit is operated within radiofrequency 

electromagnetic field strength of approximately 3 volts per meter, but the instrument's 

performance will not be permanently affected.

5.1     Function Selection
          Press Mode Key (4) for scrolling display functions as follows:

Display

Function
THB (thermal bridge detection) is the default mode.

Here will show the emissivity data. (The default emissivity is 

0.95.)

Press Mode key (4) for the 

Maximum (MAX), Minimum (MIN), 

Different between MAX and MIN (DIF) and Average (AVG) 

modes. During the measurement, the special modes reading 

will be displayed beside the mode icon

.

** The Thermometer will automatically shut off if left idle for more than 60sec., unless in PRB 

mode. (In PRB mode, it will shut off if left idle for more than 12 minutes.)
