InfraRed Thermometer
with Laser Pointer
MODEL 42529
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Model 42529 IR Thermometer. This thermometer
makes non-contact (infrared) temperature measurements at the touch of a button. The
built-in laser pointer increases target accuracy while the backlit LCD and handy push-
buttons combine for convenient, ergonomic operation. Proper use and care of this meter
will provide years of reliable service.

Safety
Use extreme caution when the laser pointer beam is on
Do not point the beam toward anyone's eye or allow the
beam to strike the eye from a reflective surface
Do not use the laser near explosive gases or in other
potentially explosive areas

Operating Instructions
1. Hold the meter by its Handle Grip and point it toward the device whose temperature is
to be measured.
2. Press and hold the red Trigger to turn the meter on and begin testing. The display will
light if the battery is charged. Replace the battery if the display does not light.
3. While continuing to press the Trigger, push the red Laser button to turn on the laser
pointer. Aim the red beam approximately a half inch higher than the point of test as
shown in the diagram below (pressing the Laser button again turns the laser off).
4. While measuring, the SCAN display icon will appear on the LCD above the
temperature measurement and to the left of the emissivity value (fixed at 0.95.).
5. If the measurement exceeds the useable temperature range (0 to 600oF), the meter will
emit a tone and the LCD will display ‘OVER’.
6. Release the Trigger when the temperature stabilizes. The HOLD display icon will
appear on the LCD indicating that the reading is being held.
7. Set the temperature units (oC or oF) using the blue oCand oFbuttons.
8. Press the yellow Backlight key to turn on the LCD backlighting function.
9. The meter will automatically power down after 7 seconds.
Field of View
The meter’s field of view is 6:1. For example, if the meter is 30.4cm from the target (spot),
the diameter of the target must be at least 5.08cm. Other distances are shown below in the
field of view diagram.
Note that measurements should normally be made less than 60.9cm 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.

Measurement Notes
1. The object under test should be larger than the spot (target) size calculated by the field
of view diagram (see diagram on previous page or on side of the meter).
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 before
measuring.
4. The meter cannot measure through transparent surfaces such as glass.
5. Steam, dust, smoke, etc. can obscure accurate 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.
Battery Replacement
When the low battery symbol appears on the LCD, replace the meter’s 9V battery.
The battery compartment is located on the bottom of the meter's handle. Open the
compartment by sliding the battery compartment cover off in the direction of the arrow.
Replace battery and re-install the battery compartment cover.
