Main Menu

To access the main menu, first press the Func (9) button to call up the measuring functions. Now press the right-hand function button (10).

  • <Measurement>
    • <Emissivity> (d)
      A selection of saved emissivities is available for some of the most common materials. Choose the relevant material in the <Material> menu item. The corresponding emissivity is shown in the line beneath. If you know the exact emissivity of the object you want to measure, you can also set it as a numerical value in the <Emissivity> menu item.
      If you frequently measure the same materials, you can enter five emissivities as favourites and quickly call them up via the bar at the top (numbered from 1 to 5).
    • <Reflected Temp.> (c)
      Setting this parameter can improve the accuracy of the measuring result, especially with low-emissivity (= high-reflection) materials. In some situations (especially in indoor areas) the reflected temperature corresponds to the ambient temperature. If there are objects with greatly deviating temperatures close to highly reflective objects, this value should be adjusted as the measurement may be affected.
  • <Display>
    • <Centerspot> (l)
      The point is displayed in the centre of the thermal image and shows you the measured temperature value at this point.
    • <Hotspot> (k):<ON>/<OFF>
      The hottest point (= measuring pixel) is indicated by red crosshairs in the thermal image. This facilitates the search for critical areas (e.g. a loose contact terminal in the control cabinet). To make the measurement as accurate as possible, focus the object to be measured in the centre of the display (186 × 140 px). This way, the corresponding temperature value of this object will be shown as well.
    • <Coldspot> (m):<ON>/<OFF>
      The coldest point (= measuring pixel) is indicated by blue crosshairs in the thermal image. This facilitates the search for critical areas (e.g. a leak in a window). To make the measurement as accurate as possible, focus the object to be measured in the centre of the display (186 × 140 px).
    • <Color Scale> (h): <ON>/<OFF>
    • <Average Temp.> (b) : <ON> / <OFF>
      The average temperature (b) is displayed at the top left of the thermal image (average temperature of all measured values in the thermal image). This can help you to determine the reflected temperature.
  • <Tool>
    • <Language>
      Under this menu item, you can select the language used in the display.
    • <Time & Date> (a)
      To change the time and date shown in the measuring tool, call up the <Time & Date> submenu. This submenu not only allows you to set the time and date but also to change their respective formats. To exit the <Time> and <Date> submenu, press either the right-hand function button (10) to save the settings, or the left-hand function button (17) to discard the changes.
    • <Shutdown Time>
      Under this menu item, you can select the time interval after which the measuring tool will automatically switch off if no buttons are pressed. You can also deactivate automatic switch-off by selecting the <Never> setting.
    • <WiFi Settings>
      Under this menu item, you can set another Wi‑Fi® channel or generate a new Wi‑Fi® key.
    • <High audio quality>
      Under this menu item, you can adjust the quality of the recorded audio file via voice memo. Please note that more storage space is required for a high audio quality.
    • <Tool Information>
      Under this menu item, you can access information about the measuring tool. There you will find the serial number of the measuring tool and the installed software version.
    • <Factory settings>
      Under this menu item, you can reset the measuring tool to factory settings and permanently delete all data. This may take several minutes. Press the right-hand arrow button (11) for <More> to enter this submenu. Then press either the right function button (10) to delete all files or the left function button (17) to cancel the process.

You can also press the measuring button (23) to exit any menu and return to the home screen.
