types for different kinds of applications. Please make sure the target to be measured
will not exceed the temperature range of the probe to avoid permanent damage to the
thermocouple probe.
2) Caution: DO NOT use the AC power adapter over output 5V 2A to avoid the product
damaged and failed to activate.
3) EMC/RFI: Readings may be affected if the unit is operated within radiofrequency
electromagnetic field strength of approximately 3 volts per meter, but the instrument's
performance will not be permanently affected.
