1. Introduction Thank you for purchase of the infrared Thermometer. This device offers non-contact (Infrared) temperature measurements capability. The built- in laser pointer increases target accuracy while the backlight LCD and handy push-buttons combine for convenient, ergonomic operation. Type K thermocouple functionality is also built-in. proper use and care of this meter will provides years of reliable service.
Safety Use extreme caution when the laser beam is turned on. Do not let the beam to enter your eye, another person’s eye or the eye of rson’s eye or the eye of an animal. Be careful not to let the beam on a reflective surface strike your eye. Be careful not to let the beam on a reflective surface strike your eye.

Mode Button Functions The infrared thermometer measuring Maximum (MAX), Minimum (MIN), Differential(DIF), and Average(AVG) Temp. Each time you take a reading. This data is stored and can be recalled with the “MODE” button until a new measurement is taken. When the trigger is pulled again, the unit will begin measuring in the last mode selected.
10. Measurement Operation Hold the meter by its Handle Grip and point it toward the surface to be measured. Pull and hold the Trigger to turn the meter on and begin testing. The display will light if the battery is good. Replace the battery if the display does not light.
11. Data Logger 11-1. Storing Data Your thermometer is capable of storing up to 20 data locations. The infrared temperature and temperature scale (˚C or ˚F) are also stored. 11-2. Infrared To store data from an infrared reading, pull the trigger. While holding the trigger, press the “MODE”...
11-5. Transmit The Data Logger You can transmit the stored temperature to pc. The function can only be used when the unit is in LOG mode, and it can transmit all of the stored temperature one time. The function works as follows: ...
12. Battery Replacement As battery power is not sufficient, LCD will display replacement with one new 9V battery is required. Open battery cover, then take out the battery from instrument and replace with a new 9V battery and place the battery cover back. 13.
14. Distance & Spot Size As the distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S) of the area measured by the unit becomes larger. 14-1. Locating a hot Spot To find a hot spot aim the thermometer outside the area of interest, then scan across with an up and down motion until you locate hot spot.
