Main Menu
To access the main menu, first press the Func (6) button to call up the measuring functions. Now press the right-hand function button (7).
- <Measurement>
- <Emissivity> (c)
A selection of saved emissivities is available for some of the most common materials. Select 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. - <Reflected temp.> (b)
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> (k)
The point is displayed in the centre of the thermal image and shows you the measured temperature value at this point. - <Hotspot> (j): <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). - <Coldspot> (l): <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). - <Color scale> (g): <ON>/<OFF>
- <WiFi> (d): <ON>/<OFF>

- <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 (7) to save the settings, or the left-hand function button (13) to discard the changes. - <Audio Signals>: <ON>/<OFF>
Under this menu item, you can switch the audio signals on or off. - <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. - <Delete All Images>
Under this menu item, you can delete all the files in the internal memory at once. Press the right-hand arrow button (8) for <More> to enter this submenu. Then press either the left-hand function button (13) to delete all files, or the right-hand function button (7) to cancel. - <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.
You can also press the measuring button (17) to exit any menu and return to the home screen.
