1 Introduction
This meter is a convenient non-contact infrared thermometer with
the functions of laser targeting, back light, data hold and auto power
off…
2 Safety Information
▪ Please read the following information carefully before using the
meter.
▪ Do not clean the meter using solvents.
Warning: Do not point laser directly at eye or reflective
surfaces.

Cautions:
When ambient temperature changes quickly, wait 30 minutes to before
taking measurements.
Avoiding EMF(electro magnetic fields) from arc weld, induction
furnace, etc…
Do not leave the unit on or near high temperature objects.

5. Operating Instructions
5-1 Point the infra-red sensor at the object, and press the “SCAN”
button. Release the “SCAN” button and the measured result will hold
automatically.
The meter shuts off after 20 seconds of inactivity.
To get an accurate measurement result, refer to D:S ratio, Emissivity
section.

5-2 To measure the ambient temperature
Press the “SCAN” button to start the unit.
Press the “Tamb” button to select the ambient temperature
measurement mode, and “Tamb” will appear on LCD. Now, press the
“SCAN” button, the measured ambient temperature will be displayed
on the LCD.
Release the “SCAN” button, the measured result will hold
automatically. Unit automatically turns off after about 20 seconds of
inactivity.
To return to infra-red measurements, press the “Tamb” button again,
“Tamb” will disappear from LCD, and then follow the steps in section
-８-
6-1.
Note: When the symbol “Tamb” appears, the measurement for
object temperature is not available.
NOTE:
If an object surface is very slick, such as stainless steel, the
emissivity from surface is low, and the measurement accuracy will

be affected. An effective solution is that using the black adhesive
tape to cover the object surface, starting the measurement until the
adhesive tape’s temperature is same as the object.
Warning: Do not point laser directly at eye or indirectly off
reflective surfaces.

Other functions
Back light: Press the key to turn on the backlight.
Measurement unit (°C/°F) selection: Open the battery cover and
take the battery out, shift the switch to select the measurement unit.
6. D:S ratio
The thermometer has a visual angle and visual spot size; a drawing
is shown as follows:
-１０-
Make sure that the target is larger than the unit’s visual spot size. The
smaller the target, the closer you should be to it. The relationship
between distance and spot size is 6:1, the drawing as following:

8 Replace batteries
If the sign “ ” appears on the LCD display, it indicates that
battery should be replaced. Remove the battery cover, and replace the
exhausted batteries with new ones.
