Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions

TE-TP2

he Series TP2 Thermocouple Thermometers can accurately measure a large

emperature range for a wide range of applications including food safety

nspection, lab testing, and HVAC. This hand-held thermometer offers three

i models that measure the probe temperature, ambient temperature, and relative humidity. Additional features include a data hold function, high/low audible alarm, and auto power off. Device includes a K type probe and battery.

EATURES

. Auto power off with disable feature (15 minutes).

. Data hold function freezes readings on display.

3. Complete with type K bead wire temperature probe and CR2032 battery.

4. °C/°F select function.

5. High/low alarm threshold setting is available.

PERATING INSTRUCTIONS

lease read the manual completely before using this device.

KEY FUNCTION

1. PWR: Turn on/off the meter or holds current readings.

2. MX/MI/AVG: Cycles between minimum, maximum, and average measurement.

3. MODE: Cycles between probe temperature, ambient temperature and humidity (depending on model) (TP2-20/TP2-30 only), RH (TP2-30 only). Press and hold for 3 seconds to charge the thermocouple type between K, J, and T (depending on model) (TP2-10/TP2-20 only).

OPERATION Power On/Off

Before powering on the meter, plug the thermocouple probe into the meter. Press the PWR button to turn on the meter. It will make a beep sound and the full screen of LCD icons will briefly show on the display. The meter is now in normal measurement mode.

AX/MIN/AVG

ress the MX/MI/AVG button, MAX icon with the highest reading appears on LCD.

ress the MX/MI/AVG button again, MIN icon with the lowest reading appears on

he LCD. Press the MX/MI/AVG button again, AVG icon appears with average

t reading on the LCD. Press the MX/MI/AVG button again, then the meter will return to normal measurement.

Change Unit

When the device is off press the MODE and PWR button at the same time to enter the setting function. Press the MODE button to select °C or °F. Press the PWR button again to save the unit.

tep 4. Lo Temp. Alarm Setting

he meter will display a “Lo Set” icon with the default value 0°C (32°F) or the last

etting on the LCD. Keep pressing the MODE button to increase digit sequentially

s until you have reached the number desired. (Please refer to #Example 1). Press the PWR button to save Lo Temp. settings, and go back to normal measurement.

Alarm Setting

tep 1. Hi Temp. Alarm Select

hen the meter is off, press the MODE and PWR button at the same time. Pass

hrough unit select by pressing power, then press the MODE button to select Hi

t Temp. alarm ON or OFF. a. When Hi Temp. alarm function is on, Press the PWR button to enter Hi Temp. alarm setting. (Move to Step 2) b. When alarm function is off, press the PWR button to set Lo Temp. alarm setting. (Step 3)

Step 2. Hi Temp. Alarm Setting

When Hi Temp. alarm is on, “Hi Set” icons with the default value 50°C (122°F) or the last setting will appear on the LCD. Keep pressing the MODE button to increase digit sequentially and release the button when you reach the number desired. (Please refer to #Example 1). Press the PWR button to save Hi temperature settings and go to Lo temperature alarm setting. Note: The default Hi/Lo alarm is off.

Example 1 - Set Hi Temp. Alarm at 1283°C

Step 1:

Keep pressing the MODE button, the numbers will cycle from 0 to 9. It will jump to the next digit to the right when the desired number (0 to 9) is

eached. So for this example, we need a “1” in the

r thousand unit column. When the number desired is reached, it will jump to the next digit to the right.

Step 2:

Keep pressing the MODE button, the same action as before until the hundreds digit shows ”2". Then release the MODE button.

Step 3:

Keep pressing the MODE button, the same action as before until the tens digit shows “8”. Then release the MODE button.

Step 4:

Keep pressing the MODE button, the same action as before until the last unit digit shows “3”. Then release the MODE button.
