IR Measurements
Taking Measurements
Point the meter toward the object being measured, then press and hold the
MEASURE
button.
The meter and laser will turn
ON
and take a reading. Read the measured temperature on the
LCD. The meter and laser turn off automatically approximately 8 seconds after the
MEASURE
button is released.
The object being measured should be larger than the spot size as illustrated at right.
Measurement considerations
: If the surface of an object to be measured is covered with frost,
dust or other materials, surface cleaning must be performed before accurate measurements can be
made.
High Reflective Surfaces
: if the surface of an object to be measured is highly reflective,
apply masking tape or apply flat black paint to the surface since black paint has a fixed emissivity
value.
Backlighting function
Press the key to turn on the
LCD
backlighting function. The backlight turns off automatically
approximately 8 seconds after the
BACKLIGHT
button is released.
Displaying ºF or ºC
Open the battery compartment, slide the switch located under the batteries (at the bottom of the
battery compartment).
