Operations and Controls

Your high-performance Microscanner

 D-Series is equipped with an ON/OFF 

power pushbutton and a mode selector switch. The mode selector switch allows 
you to choose one of three modes of operation: SCAN, MAX or MIN.

On/Off, Lock and Reset:

•  TO TURN the unit ON, PUSH and HOLD the ON/OFF power pushbutton. 

The display will momentarily read 8888, an indication that the micropro-
cessor is performing its self-diagnostic testing. After the test, the unit will 
measure and display temperature in the selected mode of operation for 
as long as the power button is depressed.

•  RELEASE the power pushbutton TO LOCK the display on the last reading. 

A single beep will audibly indicate that the display is locked. The instru-
ment will hold the last reading on the display for 10 seconds before it 
automatically turns itself OFF.

•  To RESET the display and initiate a new set of readings, PUSH the power 

pushbutton at any time.

Operation Mode:
•  SCAN

 - In the SCAN mode, the target’s instantaneous temperature is 

continuously displayed and updates 10 times per second for as long as 
you hold the power button down. After you release the power button, the 
display will lock on the last temperature measured and hold that reading 
for 10 seconds.

•  MAX

 - In the MAX mode, the display will lock on the highest temperature 

measured for as long as you hold the power button down. Each time a 
new peak temperature is measured or repeated an audible beep will 
sound. After you release the power button, the display will lock on the 
maximum recorded temperature and hold that reading for 10 seconds.

•  MIN

 - In the MIN mode, the display will lock on the lowest temperature 

measured for as long as you hold the power button down. Each time 
a new low temperature is measured or repeated, an audible beep will 
sound. After you release the power button, the display will lock on the 
minimum recorded temperature and hold that reading for 10 seconds.
