5. IRT TECHNOLOGY
An infrared thermometer detects the infrared radiation that an object emits. The
sensor determines how much infrared radiation the object is giving off and the
internal microprocessor converts that reading into a temperature reading. Us-
ing this method the thermometer can measure an object’s temperature without
touching the object. The laser are only used to aim the thermometer at the target.
6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1. Preparation
1. Do not subject the instrument to extreme temperature variations. This can
impair the accuracy of the instrument.
2. Avoid heavy impacts/dropping the instrument.
3. Avoid covering the temp/humidity sensor, infrared sensor, or the laser pointers.
6.2. Turning on the instrument
To turn on the instrument, press either the trigger or any of the face buttons.
The meter will start up with the last settings that were used.
6.3. Selecting Emissivity
To correctly determine the surface temperature of an object, you need to set
the emissivity accordingly. The instrument has 3 emissivity setting:
