2.2 Operating the Thermometer
1a.
(Without the Laser Sight Module) -Aim the thermometer at the
target to be measured. Use the “V” groove (shown in Figure 1-1)
on top of the thermometer to align the target to the thermometer’s
field of view. Look down the “V” groove with one eye only, in
order to guarantee proper sighting. Pull and hold the trigger.
1b.
(With the Laser Sight Module) - Remove the protective label
from the Laser Sight Module contacts located at the top of
the thermometer. Refer to Figure 1-1 for the location of the
label. Slide the Laser Sight Module over the “V” groove of the
thermometer from back to front as shown in Figure 2-2 until it
locks in place. Set the laser sight power switch to the ON
position. Aim at the target and pull the trigger. The laser beam
and the red power indicator LED will turn on while the trigger is
pulled. Refer to Chapter 3 for more details on the Laser Sight
Module.
