Setting The Display Modes; Setting The Emissivity - FLIR TG54 User Manual

6.2.1 Setting the Display Modes
Press and hold Menu to access the Programming menu and scroll to the Display Mode icon
. Use the Menu button to select the desired mode:
1. MIN‐MAX
2. Average mode
3. Three‐reading mode
Refer to Section 5, Operation, for more information on Display mode operation.
When a thermocouple is inserted (TG56 only) the display mode menu shows the
thermocouple icon
removed.
6.2.2 Setting the Emissivity
The emissivity is adjustable in 0.01 steps from 0.10 to 0.99; the default value is 0.95. Refer to
the Appendix for a list of common materials and their respective Emissivity factors.
1. Press and hold Menu to access the Programming menu and use the arrows to scroll to
the emissivity icon
2. Press Menu to open the item.
3. EMISSIVITY PRESETS: Use the arrow buttons to scroll to one of the preset emissivity
factors (0.95, 0.85, 0.75, or 0.65) and then press Menu to confirm. The meter will save
the setting and return to the Programming Menu.
4. CUSTOM EMISSIVITY: Use the arrow buttons to scroll to the Custom Emissivity icon
and press Menu. Use the arrow buttons to select the emissivity (0.10 to 0.99) and then
press Menu to confirm.
5. Press the Back
6. Use the arrow buttons to select another menu item or press
normal operating mode.
7. In the normal operating screen the emissivity is shown in a textured box when a preset
emissivity is used (otherwise the emissivity value is shown without a textured box). The
texture of the preset box is a simulation of a surface that would have an emissivity close
to the preset value.
