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.

4. THERMOMETER DESCRIPTIONS
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.)

Press Mode key (4), then press Up key (2) or Down key (3) to
set the emissivity, then press Mode key (4) to confirm it. The
emissivity can be changed from 0.10 (10E) to 1 (100E).
Press Up key (2) or Down key (3) to change the
High Alarm

or
Lo Alarm (LAL)
, then press Meas. key (6) to confirm it.
When the reading is outside the
High Alarm (HAL)
or
Lo Alarm
(LAL)
limit. The High or Low icon will flash and you will hear a
beep sound.
Connect the thermocouple with Thermocouple Socket (10) and
put the probe in/on the target, the thermometer will display the
temperature automatically without pressing any button. To see
the minimum or maximum data during the probe measurement,
please hold down the Up key (2 or Down key (3).
After measure high temp, the probe may remain HOT for a
while.
Press Mode key (4) for the
RH% (relative
humidity) mode
, then press Up key (2) for
