Specifications
Range:
-58.0° to 1832.0°F/ -50.0° to 1000.0°C
Resolution: 0.1°
OPERATION
Press and continue to hold down the trigger to take temperature readings.
The unit will take temperature readings while the trigger is pressed and held
(SCAN flashing on the display indicates measurements are being taken).
After the trigger is released, the last temperature measured will be displayed
for approximately 8 seconds. The display will then turn off automatically.
HOLD will appear on the display when the trigger has been released to
indicate that the unit is no longer taking temperature measurements.
SWITCH LOCATIONS
The following switches are located in the
handle:
°C/°F
LOCK ON/OFF
SET ALARM ON/OFF
To access these switches, locate the
indentions on either side of the plastic
case near the trigger. Open the handle
by pulling the rubber portion of the
handle out and away from the trigger.
Pull hard, it requires a good amount of
force to open the handle. Close the
handle by snapping it shut.
SELECTING UNITS OF MEASURE
Locate the °C/°F switch inside the handle. Slide the switch to °C to display
the temperature in °C. Slide the switch to °F to display the temperature in
°F.
LASER TARGETING/BACKLIGHT
While pressing and holding the trigger, each press the
/ button toggles
through the following:
Backlight ON (
appears on the display)
Backlight and Laser Targeting ON (
and appear on the display)
Laser Targeting ON, Backlight OFF (
appears
on the display)
Backlight and Laser Targeting OFF (no display indicators)
With the backlight on, each time the trigger is pressed and held, the LCD will
be illuminated by the backlight.
With laser targeting on, each time the trigger is pressed and held, the laser
beam will be emitted.
CAUTION: Eye damage may result from direct exposure to laser light.
DISTANCE SPOT/RATIO
There are other factors that may affect measurement accuracy. The target
must completely fill the spot diameter seen by the infrared sensor; otherwise
readings will be influenced by the surface surrounding the target. The ratio of
the distance to the size of the spot being measured is 50:1. For example, an
object’s diameter of 100mm can be measured from 5000mm.

50:1 FIELD OF VIEW INSTRUCTIONS
VALUES RECORDED
With each press of the trigger, five values are recorded:
1. MAX – Highest temperature measured.
2. MIN – Lowest temperature measured.
3. dIF – Difference between MAX and MIN.
4. AVG – Time-weighted average temperature.
5. Value last displayed before releasing the trigger.
DISPLAY MODES
Each press of the MODE button will select one of the 7 display modes. You
can cycle through the modes in this order:
“MAX” (Maximum temperature) – Press the MODE button until MAX
appears on the display. In the MAX mode, the highest temperature
measurement taken is displayed to the right of MAX. This value will update
each time a higher temperature is measured.
“MIN” (Minimum temperature) – Press the MODE button until MAX
appears on the display. In MIN mode, the lowest temperature measurement
taken is displayed to the right of MIN. This value will update each time a
new lower temperature is measured.
“dIF” (Temperature differential between MAX and MIN) – Press the
MODE button until dIF appears on the display. The difference between the
MAX and MIN reading is displayed to the right of dIF. This value is
updated as new MAX and MIN temperatures are measured.
“AVG” [Calculated (time weighted) average temperature] – Press the
MODE button until AVG appears on the display. The time weighted
average temperature reading is displayed to the right of AVG. This value is
updated continuously while the trigger is being pressed.
The term “time”, in reference to the averaging mode, means all temperature
measurements are averaged together from the first press of the trigger.
Example: If the temperature was 72° for one minute, then 20° for ½ second,
no significant change in average temperature would be displayed.
“HAL” (High Temperature Alarm) – Press the MODE button until HAL
appears on the display. The high temperature alarm value that has been set
is displayed to the left of HAL. (See High/Low Alarms section)
“LAL” (Low Temperature Alarm) – Press the MODE button until LAL
appears on the display. The low temperature alarm value that has been set
is displayed to the left of LAL. (See High/Low Alarms section)
“EMS” – Emissivity adjustment mode (See the Emissivity section).
NOTE: The last mode selected will remain selected the next time the trigger
is pressed.
MEMORY RECALL
With each press of the trigger, five values are recorded:
1. MAX – Highest temperature measured.
2. MIN – Lowest temperature measured.
3. dIF – Difference between MAX and MIN.
4. AVG – Time-weighted average temperature.
5. The value last displayed before releasing the trigger.
To cycle through each of the values recorded
during the last measurement, press the MODE button. (See the “Display
Modes” section for an explanation of the values displayed.)
HI/LOW ALARMS
An audible alarm will sound at both an upper and a lower temperature limit.
To adjust the alarm temperature set points:
1. Press the MODE button until “HAL” (High Temperature Alarm) or
“LAL” (Low Temperature Alarm) is displayed.
