INTRODUCTION
This instrument is a portable 3½ digit, compact-sized
digital thermometer designed to use external K type and J
type thermocouples. It also has the feature that sensor
offset can be adjusted for in the field. There are 2 inputs
for miniature thermocouple connectors at the top of the
instrument marked T1 and T2.
SAFETY INFORMATION
It is recommended that you read the safety and operation instructions before using the thermometer.
To avoid electrical shock, do not use this instrument
when working voltages at the measurement surface
To avoid damage or burns, do not make temperature
measurement in microwave ovens.
Repeated sharp flexing can break the thermocouple
leads. To prolong lead life, avoid sharp bends in the
leads, especially near the connector.
WARNING
over 24V AC or DC.

Readings are displayed in either degrees Celsius(°C) or
degrees Fahrenheit(°F). When the thermometer is turned
on, it is set to the temperature scale that was in use when
the thermometer was last turned off. To change the
temperature scale, press the “°C/°F” button.

Press “MAX MIN” button to enter the MAX MIN recording mode. Press “MAX MIN” button to cycle
through the MAX, MIN, MAX-MIN readings. In this
mode, press “HOLD” button to stop recording, all values
are held, press again to resume measurement. In this
mode, the APO function and other buttons are disabled,
excluding “HOLD” and “

To prevent accidental loss of MAX, MIN and MAX-MIN,
this mode can only be cancelled by pressing and holding
down the “MAX MIN” button for 2 seconds to exit and
clear readings.
7. “CLR/READ” Button
Press “READ” button to enter READ Mode, the “READ”
annunciator is displayed in the upper right corner. Press

9. “T1 T2/T1-T2/ ” Button
Press “T1”, “T2”, “T1-T2” button to select input mode
T1, T2 or T1-T2. The input selection indicates which
input is selected for display, T1 thermocouple, T2 thermocouple or the differential between the two thermocouples (T1-T2).
ADJUST THERMOCOUPLE OFFSET
1. Insert the thermocouple into a known temperature (T)
until the display stabilizes near the known temperature
(T).
example: ice point at 0°C or boiling water at 100°C
2. Press and hold the “ADJ/HOLD” button for 2 seconds
until the display starts to blink.
3. Press “ ” or “ ” to adjust the displayed value.
4. It can be adjusted ±6°F (±3°C) from default. If you can
not adjust your reading
