SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALL BATTERY
To open the battery compartment, turn the
thermometer over and lift the flip-up stand ( ig. 1,
Callout 6) to gain access to the battery compartment
(Callout 7). Remove the single Philips-head screw
securing the battery compartment cover. Set the
cover and screw aside. Obtain a “9V” battery and
install it in the compartment observing the polarity
markings inside. Close the battery compartment by
replacing its cover and securing it with the screw.
PERFORM SETUP PROCEDURE
The setup procedures for the DT61 and DT62 are
identical, with one exception: Step 2—adjusting the
temperature compensation (offset) value—must be
performed twice, for the thermocouples of both
channels.

To enter Setup mode, press the SETUP button once.
Doing so will clear all three readouts and cause the
word SETUP to begin flashing on the top line of the
LCD. SETUP will continue to flash until all steps of
the setup procedure have been completed.
Note: It’s important to understand that you must
complete the entire 7-step Setup procedure
shown above each time you initiate it. If you
power off the thermometer during an interim
step, none of your settings or changes will be
saved.
Step 1 of the procedure enables you to configure the
thermometer for the type of thermocouple to be
used. DT62 users: You cannot plug two different
types of thermocouple into the T1 and T2 jacks on
the top of the unit ( ig. 1, Callouts 2 and 3). You must
use two probes of the same type.
By default, the DT61 and DT62 are configured to
work with “K” type thermocouples. To use a “J”, “T”
or “E” thermocouple, press the 왖or 왔button until
the correct letter replaces Kat the right of TYPE on
the left side of the LCD.
On the DT61, you can also change the thermocouple
type by pressing the TC TYPE button repeatedly with
the thermometer in real-time measurement mode.
After you complete Step 1, press the SETUP button
again to initiate Step 2. During this step, the word
OFFSET appears on the top line of the LCD, with the
term T1 in the upper left corner.
Step 2 of the procedure enables you to set the
amount of temperature compensation (offset) to be
applied to the Channel 1 (T1) thermocouple. Pressing
the 왖button applies a positive offset, and pressing
the 왔button applies a negative offset. Each press of
either button adds 0.1°C of compensation to the
amount shown on the primary readout. The
8
DT61-DT62 Ma ual_RRFINAL_EFS_111014_awb 11/10/14 12:04 PM Page 8
maximum amount of temperature compensation
allowable is ±6°C. You cannot apply temperature
compensation using ahrenheit or Kelvin units. After
applying the desired amount of temperature
compensation to T1, press the SETUP button again
to save your setting and proceed to the next step.
On the DT62, the next step is Step 2A—setting the
amount of temperature compensation (offset) to be
applied to the Channel 2 (T2) thermocouple. After
using the same procedure as before to apply the
desired amount of temperature compensation to T2,
press the SETUP button again to proceed to Step 3.
Note: Changing thermocouple t pe automaticall
restores offset value(s) to 0.0.
Step 3 enables you to change the triggering time of
the Auto Power Off (APO) function from its default
value of 30 minutes. During Step 3, the primary
readout shows the term P– and the secondary
readout shows the current value of the APO
triggering time (the period of time during which no
front-panel buttons are pressed).
Each press of the 왖button increases the APO
triggering time by 1 minute, and each press of the
왔button decreases it by 1 minute. The maximum
APO triggering time is 60 minutes. If the APO
triggering time has been decreased to 5 minutes, the
next press of the 왔button causes the term oFF to
appear on the secondary readout. Disabling the APO
function in this way also causes the clock icon in the
upper left corner of the LCD ( ig. 2, Callout 1) to
disappear. The missing clock icon is a reminder that
the thermometer will not automatically power itself
off after an extended period of inactivity. With APO
disabled, be aware that leaving the thermometer
unattended for an extended period of time risks
draining the battery.

DT61-DT62 Ma ual_RRFINAL_EFS_111014_awb 11/10/14 12:04 PM Page 9
After adjusting the APO triggering time, press the
SETUP button again to proceed to Step 4.
Step 4 enables you to reset the relative time clock to
a time other the default value: how long it has been
since the thermometer was powered on. The usual
reason to change the value is to establish a new
“zero” for the measurement timeline following any
change that does not involve powering the
thermometer off.
At the beginning of Step 4, the term S - t appears on
the primary readout with 00:00 (hours and minutes)
showing on the relative time clock readout ( ig. 2,
Callout 15). To switch the display to show minutes
and seconds, press the HO D (ENTER) button. The
relative clock setting can be adjusted to any value
between 0 and 24 hours, with 1-second resolution.
Each press of the 왖button increases the setting
by 1 minute or 1 second, and each press of the
왔button decreases it by 1 minute or 1 second.
You can press and hold either button to make a large
change quickly.
After adjusting the relative time clock, press the
SETUP button again to proceed to Step 5.
Step 5 enables you to compensate for thermocouple
measurement errors caused by nearby power lines.
By default, the thermometer automatically
compensates for the effects of electric power
transmission and distribution at a frequency of 60Hz.
Upon entering Step 5, the thermometer shows the
term inE on the primary readout and 60H on the
secondary readout. Press either the 왖or 왔button
to change 60H to 50H if your local power grid
operates at 50Hz.
After adjusting the relative time clock, press the
SETUP button again to proceed to Step 6.
