Operation
Connecting thermocouples
1. This meter accepts two thermocouples with spade plugs (sub-miniature type K with one spade
wider than the other).
2. Plug the thermocouple(s) into the meter's T1 and/or T2 thermocouple input jack(s).
3. Always check the LCD display for the proper thermocouple type selection.
Turn Power ON
Press the button to turn power on. The meter will perform a short self-test. When a
thermocouple is not plugged into the selected input, or if a thermocouple is "open", the display will
show "- - - - -". The default thermocouple type, units and display configuration are determined from
the parameters selected when the meter was last used.
Selecting thermocouple type
Press the TYPE button to select the type of thermocouple.
Selecting °C, °F or °K units of measure
Press the C/F/K button to select the unit of measure.
Selecting T1, T2, and T1-T2 Displays
Press the T1 T2 T1-T2 button to step through and select from the following displays:
a. T1 (thermocouple 1) is the primary display; T2 (thermocouple 2) is the lower display
b. T2 is the primary display and T1 is the lower display
c. T1-T2 (difference between T1 and T2) is the primary display and T1 the lower display
d. T1-T2 is the primary display and T2 is the lower display
Notes:
To avoid electrical shock or personal injury, do not apply more than 20Vrms, between the
thermocouples, or between any thermocouple and earth ground.
If voltage on the measurement surface results in potentials of more than 1V, measurement errors
may occur.
If a potential exists between the thermocouples, use electrically insulated thermocouples.
Data Hold
Press the HOLD button to freeze the displayed reading. The 'H' HOLD icon will appear on the
display. Press the HOLD button again to return to normal operation.
MIN, MAX, AVG Recording Function and Timer
Press the MX/MN button to begin capturing the Minimum (MN), Maximum
(MX), and Average (AVG) temperature values. The Elapsed Time clock
will appear on the lower left of the display. The primary display shows the
current temperature. The lower display will indicate the MX, MN or AVG
value (depending on which is selected) captured since the MX/MN button
was pressed.
1. Press the MX/MN button to step through the MX, MN or AVG display Each reading will be
accompanied by a Timer value indicating the time the reading was recorded
2. Press and hold the ‘’ button to change the elapsed time format from min:sec to hour:min
3. Press and Hold the MX/MN button to exit the MX/MN function.
Backlight
Press the backlight button to switch on the LCD display backlight. The backlight will
automatically switch off after one minute (press button again to turn the light off manually).

Auto Power OFF
The meter will automatically switch off after 30 minutes of inactivity. AUTO POWER OFF is disabled
in the MAX/MIN and Datalogging modes.
To disable AUTO POWER OFF manually:
1. Hold the enter button ‘’ while turning power on.
2. The AUTO POWER OFF function will reactivate when the meter is turned off.
Turning Power OFF
Press the button to turn power off.
Manual Datalogging
Manual datalogging allows the user to store and recall up to 98 temperature readings.
1. Press the MEM button to manually store a single reading into
memory. The ‘MEM’ icon and location number of the reading will
appear on display for two seconds and then the normal display will
return.
2. To view stored readings, press the READ button. The memory
location number will briefly appear and then the ‘READ’ icon and the
stored values will appear on the display
3. Use the up/down buttons to scroll through the memory locations and view the logged readings.
4. Press the ‘READ’ button to exit the read mode
5. Press and hold the MEM button while turning the meter on to clear
the memory. When the LCD indicates "CLr", the memory has been
cleared.
Automatic Datalogging
Automatic datalogging allows the user to store up to 8,800 temperature readings in memory for later
downloading and viewing using the supplied software. The storage interval rate is programmable
from 3 to 255 seconds.
1. Press and HOLD the SET button for two seconds to enter the
interval programming screen. The ‘MEM’ and ‘INTERVAL’ icons
and interval time will appear on the display. Use the up/down
buttons to scroll through the available intervals (3 to 255
seconds). Press the ‘’ button to select the desired logging
interval
2. Make note of the start time (time of day) for the datalogging
session as this information is needed when downloading the
data.
3. Press and hold the MEM button for two seconds to enter the datalogging mode. The ‘MEM’ icon
on the center of the display will flash each time a record is stored (at the interval selected).
When the memory is full, ‘FULL’ will appear on the display and the meter will stop logging data.
4. To stop and exit the datalogging mode, press the MEM button.
5. Download the stored data using the supplied software.
Note: MAX/MIN/AVG functions can be used with the meter in datalogging mode
Clearing stored data
1. Press the “ ” button to turn the meter off.
2. Press and hold the MEM button, then press the “ ” button to turn the meter on. When the
LCD indicates "CLr", the entire memory has been erased.
