10 USING EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE PROBES

Your gauge can be fitted with an external temperature probe. An external probe is used typically for taking
measurements:
• Over an extended period of time (interval logging [T])
• At locations remote from the gauge.
While an external probe is fitted, the built-in surface temperature probe is deactivated.
For details of the external probes available see "Spare parts and accessories" on page 33.
10.1 FITTING AN EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE PROBE
There is no need to switch off your gauge before fitting an external
temperature probe.
1. At the top of the gauge, open the rubber flap which covers the socket.
Note: One side of the socket is wider than the other, therefore the
external probe connector can be fitted into the socket one way only.
2. Push the external probe connector into the socket; never force the
connector into the socket if the connector and socket do not join easily.
The connection of an external probe is indicated on the display:
• If Thermometer Mode is 'on' (see page 22), the display shows Te and
• If Thermometer Mode is 'off', the display shows Ts and
