3.  Subsequently press the SELECT button to select 

which parameter to adjust. The selected parameter will 

flash once selected.

4.  Press the ADVANCE button to increment the selected 

parameter.

5.  Hold the ADVANCE button to continuously “roll” the 

selected parameter.

6.  Press the EVENT DISPLAY button to toggle between 

Month/Day (M/D) and Day/Month (D/M) display 

modes.

If no button is pressed for 15 seconds while in the setting 

mode, the thermometer will exit the setting mode.

Changing the position of the DISPLAY switch while in the 

setting mode will save the current settings.

VIEWING THE TIME-OF-DAY/DATE

To view the time-of-day/date, slide the DISPLAY switch to 

the DATE/TIME position.

SELECTING THE UNIT OF MEASURE

To select the desired unit of temperature measure (°C or 

°F), slide the UNITS switch to the corresponding position.

SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE PROBE CHANNEL

Slide the PROBE switch to either position ‘1’ or position ‘2’ 

to select the corresponding probe channel P1 or P2.
All temperature readings displayed will correspond with 

the selected probe channel.

Note: 

Both probe channels are sampled and monitored 

continuously regardless of the selected probe channel.

MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM MEMORY

The minimum temperature stored in memory is the 

minimum temperature measured since the last clear of 

min/max memory. The maximum temperature stored in 

memory is the maximum temperature measured since the 

last clear of min/max memory.

MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE 

VALUES ARE NOT PROGRAMMABLE.

Minimum and maximum temperature values are stored 

individually for each probe channel P1 and P2. Both 

channels are monitored continuously regardless of the 

selected probe channel.

VIEWING MIN/MAX MEMORY

1.  Slide the PROBE switch to select temperature probe 

channel to be displayed.

2.  Slide the DISPLAY switch to the MIN/MAX position.

3.  The thermometer will display the current, minimum, 

and maximum temperatures for the selected probe 

channel.

4.  Press the EVENT DISPLAY button to display the 

minimum temperature with the corresponding date and 

time of occurrence.

5.  Press the EVENT DISPLAY button a second time to 

display the maximum temperature with the corre

-

sponding date and time of occurrence.

6.  Press the EVENT DISPLAY button to return to the 

current temperature display.

No button press for 15 seconds while viewing the mini-

mum or maximum event data will trigger the thermometer 

to return to the current temperature display.

CLEARING THE MIN/MAX MEMORY

1.  Slide the PROBE switch to select the temperature 

probe channel to be cleared.

2.  Slide the DISPLAY switch to the MIN/MAX position.

3.  Press the CLEAR SILENCE ALM button to clear the 

current minimum and maximum temperature readings.

Alarms

Alarm high and low limits can be set individually for each 

probe channel (P1 and P2).

SETTING ALARM LIMITS

1.  Slide the switch to the ALARM position. Then slide the 

PROBE switch to select the probe channel for which 

alarms will be set.

Each digit of the alarm value is set individually: 

Low Alarm Sign (Positive/Negative) -> Low Alarm 

Hundreds/Tens -> Low Alarm Ones -> Low Alarm Tenths 

-> High Alarm Sign (Positive/Negative) -> High Alarm 

Hundreds/Tens -> High Alarm Ones -> High Alarm Tenths.
2.  Press the SELECT button to enter the setting mode. 

The LOW ALM symbol will flash.

3.  Press the SELECT button to select the digit to adjust. 

Each subsequent press of the SELECT button will 

move to the next digit. The digit will flash while 

selected.

4.  Press ADVANCE button to increment the selected 

digit.

Note:

 The negative sign will flash if the sign is negative; 

no symbol will flash if the sign is positive. Press the 

ADVANCE button to toggle the sign while it is selected.
If no button is pressed for 15 seconds while in the setting 

mode, the thermometer will exit the setting mode.

Changing the position of the DISPLAY switch while in the 

setting mode will save the current settings.

VIEWING THE ALARM LIMITS

1.  Slide the PROBE switch to select the probe channel 

alarm limits to be displayed.

2.  Slide the DISPLAY switch to the ALARM position.

ENABLING/DISABLING ALARMS

1.  Slide the ALARM switch to the ON or OFF position to 

enable or disable the alarms.

2.  Alarms are enabled for both probe channels P1 and 

P2 while the switch is set to ON. Alarms are disabled 

for both probe channels P1 and P2 while the switch is 

set to OFF.

3. 

The alarms cannot be configured to enable individual 

channels P1 or P2 only.

ALARM EVENT HANDLING

An alarm event will trigger if the alarm is enabled and a 

temperature reading is recorded below the low alarm set 

point or above the high alarm set point.

When an alarm event triggers, the thermometer buzzer 

will sound, and the LED for the alarming temperature 

channel will flash (P1 or P2). If the alarming probe chan

-

nel is selected, the LCD symbol will flash signaling which 

set point was breached (HI ALM or LO ALM).
An active alarm may be cleared by either pressing the 

CLEAR SILENCE ALM button or disabling the alarm func-

tionality by sliding the ALARM switch to the OFF position.
Once an alarm is cleared, it will not re-trigger until after 

the temperature returns to within the alarm limits.

Note:

 If an alarm event is triggered and returns to within 

the alarm limits before being cleared, the alarm event will 

remain active until it is cleared.

VIEWING ALARM EVENT MEMORY

1.  Slide the PROBE switch to select the probe channel 

alarm data to be displayed.

2.  Slide the DISPLAY switch to the ALARM position. The 

current temperature, low alarm limit, and high alarm 

limit will display.

3.  Press the EVENT DISPLAY button. The thermometer 

will display the alarm limit, date, and time of the most 

recent alarm out of range condition. The symbol ALM 

OUT will display to signal the date and time displayed 

indicate when the temperature when out of tolerance.

4.  Press the EVENT DISPLAY button a second time. 

The thermometer will display the alarm limit, date, and 

time of the most recent alarm event returning to within 

the alarm limits. The symbol ALM IN will display to 

signal the date and time displayed indicate when the 

temperature returned to within tolerance.

5.  Press the EVENT DISPLAY button to return to the 

current temperature display.

No button press for 15 seconds while viewing the alarm 

events will trigger the thermometer to return to the current 

temperature display.

Note:

 If no alarm event has occurred for the selected 

probe channel, the thermometer will display “LLL.LL” on 

each line.

DATA LOGGING OPERATION

Thermometer will continuously log temperature readings 

for both probe channels into permanent memory at 

one-minute intervals. The total memory capacity is 

1,051,200 data points. Each data point contains the 

temperature reading for P1, the temperature reading for 

P2, and the date and time of occurrence.

Note: 

All data stored in Celsius (°C) and date format is 

MM/DD/YYYY.
The thermometer will also store the most recent 10 alarm 

events. Each alarm event data point contains the probe 

channel which alarmed, the alarm set point that was 

triggered, the date and time the channel reading went 

out of range, and the date and time the channel reading 

returned to within range.
