FS200+ Food Safety Thermometer
The FS200+ Food Safety Thermometer is two
thermometers in one: A non-contact infrared
thermometer for scanning surface temperatures
and a contact probe thermometer (type K
thermocouple) to precisely measure internal
temperatures. Users can switch between
infrared and probe measurements quickly and
easily.
Special Features:
* HACCP Zone Display
* IP65 protection from water and dust intrusion

To use infrared thermometer function: Simply aim
the thermometer at the target and press the Scan
button to display the surface temperature. The LED
target light shows the approximate target area to be
measured. For best results, hold the thermometer
between 1 and 10 inches from the target and be
sure your target is larger than the thermometer's
field of view. The infrared thermometer will continuously measure and display updated surface
temperatures as long as the Scan key is depressed.
When the Scan key is released, the LCD display will
“Hold”, and the last measurement will remain visible
for 15 seconds then automatically turn off.
APPLICATION NOTE: The infrared thermometer
function measures the surface temperature of food
and other items - not
designed to be a screening tool only. Use the
attached thermocouple probe to verify internal
temperature.

Mode Selection (MIN, MAX, LOCK, °C, °F, EMIS)
Minimum or Maximum Mode
The infrared thermometer will display the
minimum or maximum reading during the
measurement period until the Mode key is
pressed or the display auto powers off.
To activate Minimum (MIN) mode: Press the
Scan button until the temperature appears on
the display, then press the Mode button once.
You will see "MIN" appear above the
temperature reading. Immediately press and
hold the Scan button again to scan for minimum
temperature.
To activate Maximum (MAX) mode: Press the
Scan button until the temperature appears on
the display, then press the Mode button twice.
You will see "MAX" appear above the
temperature reading. Immediately press and
hold the Scan button again to scan for maximum
temperature.
Lock Mode
The lock mode is particularly useful for
continuous monitoring of temperatures. When in
lock mode, the infrared thermometer will
continuously measure and display the
temperature for up to 60 minutes.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
To activate Lock mode: Press the Scan button until
the temperature appears on the display, then press
the Mode button three times. You will see "LOCK"
appear above the temperature reading. Immediately
press and release the Scan button. The
thermometer will now continously measure and
display the temperature for up to 60 minutes or until
the Scan button is pressed again.
°C/°F Mode
To change °C/°F: Press Scan button until the
temperature appears on the display, then press the
Mode button four times. The °C or °F icon will blink.
Immediately press the Scan button to change from
°C to °F or °F to °C.
Emissivity
The infrared thermometer is supplied with a default
emissivity of 0.95. The emissivity can be changed
from 0.10 (10E on display) to 1 (100E on display).
For information relating to the emissivity of specific
materials, please contact Customer Service. To
change emissivity: Press the Scan button until the
temperature appears on the display, then press the
Mode button five times. You will see the current
emissivity setting (10E-100E). Press the Scan button
once for each 0.01 (1E) adjustment until the desired
emissivity is displayed. Press the Mode button once
to save the new emissivity.
Contact Thermocouple Probe Function
To use the Thermocouple Probe: Carefully
rotate probe 180 degrees from its storage
position against the FS200+ body. Press the
Probe button and insert the probe tip into the
item being measured. The thermometer will
continuously measure and display the
temperature for up to 4 minutes. Press the
Probe button again to "Hold" the current
temperature. To begin scanning again, press the
Probe button again.
CAUTION: Over-rotating, over-stressing or
forcing the probe outside the range of the hinge
will cause damage – please use care.
CAUTION: The probe is sharp and can be
dangerous in the fully extended position. Fold
the probe back against the unit when not in use.
CAUTION: The probe may remain hot after
measuring a high-temperature item. Allow it to
cool for a few minutes before touching.
CAUTION: The probe must be washed before
and after each use. Carefully hand wash - do not
submerge or wash in an automatic dishwasher.
CAUTION: Do not use this thermometer to
measure body temperature.
