TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
1. Insert the probe plug into the socket at the top
of the meter. The plug and socket are keyed
with a small and large pin. Make certain that the
plug is inserted correctly. Do not insert the plug
incorrectly and force the connection.
2. Press the PWR button to turn the meter on.
When the PWR button is pressed, before the current
temperature measurement is displayed, the display will
show all segments for approximately 4 seconds and will
then display “
0.0 ” for approximately 2 seconds.
3. Press the °C/°F button to select °F or °C.
4. Place the probe in contact with the material to
be measured and read the temperature on
the display.
5. Press the PWR button again to turn the meter
off. To conserve battery life, always turn off the
meter when not in use.
After 20 minutes, the meter will automatically turn
off to preserve battery life. To disable this feature,
see the “Automatic Shutoff Disable” section.
PROBE SUPPLIED
The probe supplied is an ultra-fast response
Type-K thermocouple naked bead probe with tefl on
insulation. The maximum operating temperature
range for this thermocouple is 500°F (260°C).
Additional probes, including a stainless steel triple
purpose probe with handle, are available (see the
“Accessories” section).
Longer leads and extension may be used. The lead
effect for 164 feet (50 meters) is generally less
than 0.2°C with a limit of error of 2.2°C. Type-K
wire and Type-K connectors must be used.
DATA HOLD FUNCTION
To “freeze” the display at the current temperature
reading, press and release the HOLD button
(“HOLD” will appear at the top of the display).
Note: While in this mode, pressing the °C/°F button will have no
affect and will not change the display.
Press and release the HOLD button a second time
to return to current temperature display (“HOLD”
will no longer appear on the display).
MEMORY RECORD MODE
Press the MN/MX button to activate the minimum/
maximum memory record mode (“REC” will appear
on the display).
While in the Record mode, the meter will record
the minimum and maximum temperature readings
achieved.
Note: While in this mode, pressing the °C/°F button will have no
affect and will not change the display.
Note: If the Automatic Shutoff feature has not been
disabled, the meter will turn off automatically after
20 minutes. For long term monitoring, disable
the Automatic Shutoff feature (see the “Automatic
Shutoff Disable” section).
Press and hold the MN/MX button for 3 seconds to
exit the Record mode (“REC” will no longer appear
on the display).
The minimum and maximum temperature
recordings are automatically cleared once the
Record mode has been exited.
MEMORY RECALL
1. While in the Record mode, press the MN/MX
button to display the maximum temperature
that has been achieved (“MAX” will appear on
the display).
2. Press the MN/MX button a second time to
display the minimum temperature that has been
achieved (“MIN” will appear on the display).
3. Press the MN/MX button a third time to return to
the current temperature display.
AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF DISABLE
The Automatic Shutoff feature will turn the meter
off after 20 minutes to preserve battery life. This
feature is automatically enabled each time the
meter is powered on, regardless of whether the
feature was disabled previously.
To disable the Automatic Shutoff feature:
While the meter is turned off, press and hold the
HOLD button, then press and hold the PWR button.
Continue to press and hold the both buttons until
“n” appears on the display. Once “n” appears on
the display (indicating that the Automatic Shutoff
feature has been disabled), release both buttons.
The meter will then display the current temperature.
With the Automatic Shutoff feature disabled,
the meter will remain on until the PWR button is
pressed, or until the battery is fully drained.
RELATIVE MEASUREMENT MODE
The relative measurement mode will show a
“relative zero” measurement based on the
temperature that was being measured when the
mode was entered. The display will then indicate
the temperature difference from the “relative zero”
value. To activate the relative measurement mode,
press the REL button (“REL” will appear on the
display).
Example--
If the temperature being measured is 25.0 °C
when the relative measurement mode is entered,
the meter will set 25.0 °C as the “relative zero”
and the display will show 0.0 °C as long as the
temperature being measured is 25.0 °C. If the
temperature rises to 27.5 °C, the display will show
2.5 °C. If the temperature falls to 20.0 °C, the
display will show -5.0 °C.
Note: While in this mode, pressing the °C/°F button will have no
affect and will not change the display.
To exit the relative measurement mode, press the
REL button (“REL” will no longer appear on the
display.)
MEMORY RECORD - RELATIVE MEASUREMENT
While in the relative measurement mode, press the
MN/MX button to activate the Record mode (“REC”
will appear on the display).
While in the Record mode during relative
measurement, the meter will record the minimum
and maximum temperature difference from the
“relative zero” value achieved.
Note: If the Automatic Shutoff feature has not been
disabled, the meter will turn off automatically after
20 minutes. For long term monitoring, disable the
Automatic Shutoff feature. (See the “Automatic
Shutoff Disable/Enable” section.)
To exit the Record mode and remain in the relative
measurement mode, press and hold the MN/MX
button for 3 seconds (“REC” will no longer appear
on the display).
The minimum and maximum temperature
recordings are automatically cleared once the
Record mode has been exited.
MEMORY RECALL - RELATIVE MEASUREMENT
1. While in the Record mode during relative
measurement, press the MN/MX button to
display the maximum temperature difference
that has been achieved. (“MAX” will appear on
the display.)
2. Press the MN/MX button a second time to
display the minimum temperature difference
that has been achieved. (“MIN” will appear on
the display.)
3. Press the MN/MX button a third time to return to
the current relative temperature display.
WATERPROOF FEATURE
This thermometer is waterproof with an IP (Ingress
Protection) rating of IP66. The thermometer
is not immersible. IP66 rating indicates total
protection from dust and temporary protection from
fl ooding of liquids. The rubber boot and top cap
plug must be used to maintain this rating. The
rubber boot is removable so that it may be used
with additional thermocouple probes.
BACKLIGHT
Press the BKLT button to turn on the display
backlight when in dim or dark conditions. The light
will automatically turn off after approximately 30
seconds to preserve battery life.
DISPLAY MESSAGES
appearing on the display indicates that the
battery is low and needs replacement (see the
“Battery Replacement” section).
“ ----” appearing on the display indicates that no
probe is plugged into the meter, or the probe is
damaged.
ALL OPERATIONAL DIFFICULTIES
If this meter does not function properly for any
reason, please replace the battery with a new,
high-quality battery (see the “Battery Replacement”
section). Low battery power can occasionally
cause any number of “apparent” operational
diffi culties. Replacing the battery with a new fresh
battery will solve most diffi culties.
