INTRODUCTION
The instrument is a portable digital thermometer that
measures external thermocouples of type K, J, R, S, T, E,
N. The thermocouples types comply with the N.I.S.T. –
ITS 90 standard reference temperature/voltage tables.
The thermometer features a dual thermocouple input, an
adjustable T/C offset and an USB interface for uploading
data to a PC using optional software and cable.
SAFETY INFORMATION
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.

displayed. The location of the read pointer in the selected group will be displayed. Use the arrows to
scroll through the data. Pressing the overlay “ESC”
button deactivates the read data function.
(7) HOLD Mode (only Main display)
When HOLD mode is selected, the thermometer holds
the present readings and stops all further measurements. To activate the data hold mode, press the
HOLD button, and “HOLD” is displayed on the LCD.
Pressing the HOLD button again cancels the function,
and the instrument will automatically resume measurements.
(8) MIN/MAX with Time record Mode
(only Main display)
The MIN/MAX function records the highest and lowest value recorded, and it calculates the average reading, and the differences of MAX to MIN. Press
MIN/MAX button to enter the MIN/MAX recording
mode. The beeper emits a tone when a new minimum
or maximum measurement is recorded. Press the
MIN/MAX button again to rotate through the current
readings: MAX: The highest measurement recorded.
MIN: The lowest measurement recorded. MAX-MIN:
The difference of the highest and the lowest measurement. AVG: The average values of the measurements.
This mode works in conjunction with the hold function,
pressing the HOLD button will stop the recording and
measurements (Previously recorded readings are not
erased). Press HOLD button again to resume recording
and measurements. To prevent accidental loss of MIN,
MAX and AVG data, the MIN/MAX function can only
be cancelled by pressing and holding down the MIN
MAX key for more then 2 seconds. The automatic
power-off feature, and the power, °C/°F, REL, SET,
Hi/Lo Limits, TYPE, T1/T2 buttons are also disabled.
