Meter Description

1. Laser pointer beam

2. IR Sensor

3. Measurement Trigger

4. Battery Compartment

5. LCD Display

6. Push-buttons

7. Handle Grip

Operating Instructions

1. Hold the meter by its Handle Grip and point it toward the surface to be measured.

2. Pull and hold the Trigger to turn the meter on and begin testing. The display will light if

the battery is fresh. Replace the battery if the display does not light.

3. While continuing to pull the Trigger:

a. Push the laser button to turn on the laser pointer. When the laser is on, the

laser icon will appear on the LCD over the temperature reading. Aim the red

beam at the point of test (pressing the laser button again turns the laser off).

b. Select the temperature units using the oCor oFbutton.

c. Push the backlight button to turn on the LCD backlight function.

4. Release the Trigger (the reading will hold for approximately 6 seconds) and the meter

will automatically shut off.

Over-range Indicator

If the temperature measurement exceeds 1400°F (760°C), the thermometer will display

dashes in place of a temperature reading.

Measurement Notes

1. The object under test should be larger than the spot (target) size calculated by the field

of view diagram.

2. If the surface of the object under test is covered with frost, oil, grime, etc., clean before

taking measurements.

3. If an object's surface is highly reflective, apply masking tape or flat black paint to the

surface before measuring.

4. The meter may not make accurate measurements through transparent surfaces such

as glass.

5. Steam, dust, smoke, etc. can obscure measurements.

6. The meter compensates for deviations in ambient temperature. It can, however, take

up to 30 minutes for the meter to adjust to extremely wide ambient temperature

changes.

7. To find a hot spot, aim the meter outside the area of interest then scan across (in an up

and down motion) until the hot spot is located.

Field of View

The meter’s field of view is 12:1. For example, if the meter is 24 inches from the target

(spot), the diameter of the target must be at least 2 inches. Other distance ratios are

shown in the field of view diagram.

Note that measurements should normally be made less than 2 feet from the target. The

meter can measure from further distances but the measurement may be affected by

external sources of light. In addition, the spot size may be so large that it encompasses

surface areas not intended to be measured.

Battery Replacement

When the low battery symbol appears on the LCD, replace the meter’s

9V battery. The battery compartment is located behind the panel that

surrounds the meter’s trigger. The panel can be pried open near the

trigger and folded down as shown in the diagram.
