2.4 Temperature Measurements
2.4.1 General Operation
CAUTION... SHOCK HAZARD
DO NOT TOUCH THE INSTRUMENT TO ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS*
The OS950™ measures temperature very quickly. To obtain an accurate measurement, it is only necessary to touch the surface for a fraction of a second.
For exact surface temperature measurements that are NIST traceable, use the following procedure:
1.Press and hold the MEASURE button.
2.The display will briefly show [8888].
3.Touch the nosepiece to the target surface.
4.The display may or may not change, but the "beeping" sound will indicate that measurements are being made.
5.Record the temperature from the display.
6.Release the MEASURE button. The last reading will remain locked on the display for 10 seconds after releasing the button.
