How it Works
Infrared thermometers measure the surface tempera-
ture of an object. The unit’s optics sense emitted,
reflected, and transmitted energy, which is collected
and focused onto a detector. The unit’s electronics
translate the information into a temperature reading
which is displayed on the unit. The laser is used for
aiming purposes only.
Field of View
Make sure that the target is larger than the unit’s spot
size. The smaller the target, the closer you should be
to it. When accuracy is critical, make sure the target
is at least twice as large as the spot size.
Distance and Spot Size
As the distance (D) from the object increases, the
spot size (S) of the area measured by the unit
becomes larger.
Locating a Hot Spot
To find a hot spot, aim the thermometer outside the
area of interest, then scan across with an up-and-
down motion until you locate hot spot.

Emissivity
Emissivity is a term used to describe the energy-
emitting characteristics of materials. Most (90% of
typical applications) organic materials and painted
or oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95
(preset in the unit). Inaccurate readings will result
from measuring shiny or polished metal surfaces.
To compensate, cover the surface to be measured
with black tape or flat black paint. Allow time for the
tape to reach the same temperature as the material
underneath it. Measure the temperature of the tape
or painted surface. (Refer to table on page 8.)
Good Measuring Practices
Holding the meter by its handle, point the IR sensor
toward the object whose temperature is to be mea-
sured. The meter automatically compensates for
temperature deviations from ambient temperature.
Keep in mind that it will take up to 30 minutes for
the IR sensor to stabilize if going from ambient tem-
peratures to a much higher (or lower) temperature
measurement.
Reminders
• The unit is not recommended for measuring shiny
or polished metal surfaces (stainless steel,
aluminum, etc.). See Emissivity above.
• The unit cannot measure through transparent
surfaces such as glass. It will measure the surface
temperature of the glass instead.
• Steam, dust, smoke, etc. can prevent accurate
measurement by obstructing the unit’s optics.

Setup and Operation
1. Hold the meter by its handle grip and point it toward
the surface to be measured.
2. Pull and hold the trigger to turn the meter on and
begin testing. The display will light if the battery is
good. Replace the battery if the display does not
light. Meter automatically powers down after
10 seconds once the trigger is released.
3. While measuring, the SCAN icon will appear in the
upper left-hand corner of the LCD.
4. Release the trigger and the HOLD icon will appear at
the top of the LCD, indicating that the reading is
being held.
5. Press the Up / Laser button to turn on the laser
pointer. When the laser is on, the Laser icon will
appear at the top of the LCD. Press the Up / Laser
button again to turn laser off.
6. While in the HOLD mode, press the MODE button to
access and set emissivity (EMS) value, temperature
units (°C or °F), Max/Min readings, trigger lock (on/
off), high alarm (on/off and set point), and low alarm
(on/off and set point). Each time you press the
MODE button, you advance through each option.
Refer to the flow chart on page 11 to see the
sequence of functions in the mode cycle.
a. Emissivity (EMS). When the Emissivity icon is
flashing, use the Up and Down buttons to
adjust from 0.10 to 1. Then press the MODE
button again to enter setting.

Setup and Operation (continued)
b. Trigger Lock. Use for continuous monitoring of
temperatures. When the Lock icon is flashing, use
the Up or Down button to turn “on”. Then
press the MODE button again to enter setting. Once
you press the measurement trigger, the Lock icon is
shown, confirming the lock measurement mode.
The meter will continuously display the temperaure
until the measurement trigger is pressed again.
c. High Alarm. When the High alarm icon is flashing,
use the Up or Down button to turn “on”. Then
press the MODE button again to enter setting. The
High alarm icon will still be flashing, allowing you to
set the alarm trigger temperature set point from –31
to 1000°F (–35 to 537°C) using the Up and Down
buttons. Press MODE button again to enter set-
ting.
d. Low Alarm. When the Low alarm icon is flashing,
use the Up or Down button to turn “on”. Then
press the MODE button again to enter setting. The
Low alarm icon will still be flashing, allowing you
to set the alarm trigger temperature set point from
–31 to 1000°F (–35 to 537°C) using the Up and
Down buttons. Press MODE button again to enter
setting.
