5.2 Lämpötilayksiköiden (°F/°C) vaihtaminen

Paina °F/UP button to switch between Fahrenheit (°F) and Celsius (°C) temperature units.

5.3 Mode Selection (MAX/MIN/AVG/DIF)

Paina MODE button to cycle through different measurement modes:

  • MAX: Displays the maximum temperature measured during a scan.
  • MIN: Displays the minimum temperature measured during a scan.
  • AVG: Displays the average temperature measured during a scan.
  • DIF: Näyttää mitattujen maksimi- ja minimilämpötilojen välisen eron.

5.4 Emissiivisyyden säätö

Emissivity (ε) is a measure of an object's ability to emit infrared energy. Different materials have different emissivity values. For accurate readings, adjust the emissivity setting to match the material being measured.

  1. In measurement mode, long press the MODE button to enter emissivity adjustment.
  2. Käytä °F/UP ja °C/DN buttons to adjust the emissivity value (0.1 to 1.0).
  3. Paina MODE uudelleen vahvistaaksesi ja poistuaksesi.

7. Huolto ja hoito

  • Puhdistus: Pyyhi laite puhtaaksi pehmeällä,amp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Ensure the lens is clean for accurate readings.
  • Akun vaihto: When the low power indicator appears on the display, replace the 9V battery promptly. Refer to Section 4.1 for battery installation instructions. It is recommended to remove the battery if the device will not be used for an extended period (e.g., several months) to prevent battery drain and potential leakage.
  • Varastointi: Store the thermometer in its protective carrying case when not in use. Keep it in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures, humidity, and direct sunlight.
  • Vältä pudotuksia: While durable, avoid dropping the device to prevent damage to internal components or the sensitive infrared lens.

OngelmaRatkaisu
Laite ei käynnisty.Check if the 9V battery is installed correctly with proper polarity. Replace the battery if it is depleted. Ensure the battery compartment is securely closed.
Epätarkat lämpötilalukemat.
  • Verify the emissivity setting matches the material being measured (refer to Section 5.4).
  • Ensure the infrared lens is clean and free from dust or debris.
  • Confirm you are within the optimal distance for the 50:1 D:S ratio.
  • Avoid measuring through glass or other transparent surfaces, as this can lead to inaccurate readings.
  • Remember that this device is not for human or animal temperature measurement.
Näyttö on himmeä tai vaikeasti luettava.Activate the backlight by pressing the Backlight/Flashlight button. In direct sunlight, the LCD may still be challenging to read; try to shade the screen.
Laser pointer is not working.Press the Laser Pointer button to activate it. If it still doesn't work, check battery level.
Readings above 999°F appear truncated (e.g., 112 instead of 1120).For readings above 999°F, the display may show only the last three digits. In such cases, mentally add a zero to the end of the displayed number (e.g., 112 displayed means 1120°F). This is a known characteristic for some high-temperature infrared thermometers.

9. Takuu ja tuki

The BTMETER BT-1800 Infrared Thermometer comes with a 12 kuukauden takuu ostopäivästä lukien, ja se kattaa valmistusvirheet ja materiaalivirheet normaalin käytön aikana.
