Page 6: Dew Point Temperature Mode
IR-only mode In the IR-only Mode the meter can measure IR temperature, air temperature, air humidity, dew-point temperature, and wet bulb temperature but without the video camera capabilities. The IR Maximum (MAX) Temperature, IR Minimum (MIN) Temperature, IR Differential (DIF) Temperature, and the IR Average (AVG) Temperature can also be displayed. -
Page 7: Datalogging Mode
Datalogging Mode The datalogger automatically records readings to memory at a programmed interval. In the Datalogging mode, the high/low alarm values, low alarm value, datalogging interval sampling rate (time), can be configured. Once configured, press the trigger to start logging. The unit will automatically record data at the specified sampling time. - Page 8 System Tools Settings From the Video + IR, IR-only, or Dew Point modes, press the ENTER button to access the soft-key screen. The System Tools is the icon on the left. Use the arrow buttons to scroll over to the System Tools icon if it is not already highlighted.

Page 16: Ir Measurement Notes
IR Measurement Notes 1. The object under test should be larger than the spot (target) size calculated by the field of view diagram (printed on the side of the meter and in this guide). 2. Before measuring, be sure to clean surfaces that are covered with frost, oil, grime, etc. 3. -
Page 17: Emissivity And Ir Measurement Theory
Emissivity and IR Measurement Theory IR Thermometers measure the surface temperature of an object. The thermometer’s optics sense emitted, reflected, and transmitted energy. The thermometer’s electronics translate the information into a temperature reading which is then displayed on the LCD. The amount of IR energy emitted by an object is proportional to an object's temperature and its ability to emit energy. - Page 18 Specifications Infrared Thermometer Specifications Range -58 to 3992 F (-50 to 2200 Resolution C/F < 1000; 1 C/F > 1000 Accuracy -50°C to -20°C (-58°F to -4°F) Not specified -19.9°C to -1°C (-3.9°F to 30°F) ± (2% rdg + 6°F/3.3°C) -0.9°C to 100°C (30.1°F to 212°F) ±...
