Surface Temperature Sensor is connected to the instrument and held against
the surface of interest. Temperature values can be displayed in °C or °F (see
section 2.5 for instructions).
T is a useful function when investigating condensation, as it tells the user

how many degrees a surface is above or below the prevailing dew point
temperature. When a surface exceeds the dew point by more than 3°C, T

degree of condensation. Table 3 below summarizes this functionality.
