long as the trigger is pulled. The target
temperature and emissivity (E) will be displayed
on the LCD. You can press the and
key to increment or decrement the target
emissivity. The laser beam is switchable between
dot and circle using the switch on the right side.
Measuring Distance
Distance measurement is offered either as field
mountable or built-in. The field mountable version
(HH-DM) is a stand alone device. Press the key
