Operating Instructions
Power ON/OFF
To turn the meter ON or OFF press and hold the POWER button for
approx. 3 seconds.
External Contact Probe Measuring Procedure
This meter accepts K-type thermocouples with a mini
plug. The probe can be used simultaneously while the
thermometer is taking non-contact measurements.
The probe readings are shown below the
non-contact measurements.
1. Turn the meter on and connect the
provided thermocouple.
2. Pull the trigger to begin taking contact
probe measurements.
3. The LCD will display the measured contact temperature value.
Note: To take a measurement, make direct contact with the surface being
tested. If a thermocouple probe is not connected to the meter, the LCD
will display "---.-°F or °C".
Non-Contact (Infrared) Temperature Measurement
1. Pull and hold the trigger after aiming at the target. The SCAN icon
will ash, indicating that the target temperature is being measured.
2. When the trigger is released, the HOLD icon will appear indicating
that measurement has stopped and the last measured value will
remain on-screen until the next measurement has been taken or the
instrument turns off.
Note: Each time the trigger is pulled an internal log is created which
captures the following information:
a) IR temperature
b) Thermocouple temperature
(if connected)
c) Emissivity

Continuous Temperature Measurement (Trigger Lock)
The instrument allows for continuous temperature measurement to be set
from 1 minute to 24 hours. Refer to "Trigger Lock Setup" for details.
Note: This function is applicable for processes that require regular
monitoring of temperature.
1. Once the trigger lock function is enabled, pull and hold the trigger
after aiming at the target. The SCAN icon will ash, indicating that
the target temperature is being measured.
2. Press the
screen to turn the continuous temperature measurement
function ON.
3. Release the trigger and the
and the SCAN icon will ash.
4. When the set continuous time for temperature measurement has
been reached, both the
HOLD icon will appear. The thermometer will now hold the last
measured value until the next measurement value has been taken or
the instrument turns off.
Note: The continuous temperature measurement function can also be
turned OFF by pulling the trigger again before time is reached.

Turning Laser ON/OFF
When the trigger is pulled, press the button to turn
the laser indicator function ON and OFF. When turned
on, the laser indicator will be displayed on the LCD,
while the red laser beam will indicate the position
being measured.

Measurement Modes
1. While the meter is powered ON and in HOLD status, press
the button to enter the measurement MODE selection screen.
2. Press the or buttons to scroll through each mode as shown
in Figure 1.
3. Once the desired mode has been highlighted, press the OK button to
conrm selection.
Note: At any time, press the BACK button or pull the trigger to exit the
measurement MODE selection screen and resume normal operation.
General Mode
This mode is suitable for most users and can measure ambient
temperature, relative humidity, dew point temperature, wet bulb
temperature, type K thermocouple (contact) temperature and infrared
(non-contact) temperature. (Figure 2)
Infrared Reference Mode
In this mode, a measured reading can be compared to a reference
temperature. If the reference temperature needs to be changed, press
the BACK button to clear it and measure again. When ready, measure
the temperature of the detected object. The thermometer automatically
calculates the difference (IR-Ref) by subtracting the temperature of the
object being measured (IR) from the reference temperature as shown
in Figure 3.

Thermal Conduction
In this mode, the thermometer automatically calculates the difference
between the temperature of the object being measured and the current
ambient temperature as shown in Figure 4.
Dew Point Mode
In this mode, the thermometer automatically calculates the difference by
subtracting the temperature of the object being measured from the current
dew point temperature as shown in Figure 5.
Thermocouple Mode
In this mode, the thermometer automatically calculates the difference by
subtracting the temperature of the object being measured from the type K
thermocouple temperature as shown in Figure 6.

Appendix: Emissivity Chart
Emissivity is a term used to describe the energy-emitting characteristics of
materials. Most (90% of typical applications) organic materials and painted
or oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95. Inaccurate readings will
result from measuring shiny or polished metal surfaces. To compensate,
cover the surface to be measured with masking tape or at black paint.
Allow time for the tape to reach the same temperature as the material
underneath it. Measure the temperature of the tape or painted surface.
