Displaying Temperatures

1.Press Cto select the correct temperature scale.

2.Hold or attach the thermocouple(s) to the measurement location.

The temperature reading appears in the selected display.

3.Model 54: Press Tto toggle between showing the T1, T2, and T1-T2 reading in the primary or secondary display.

Notes

The display shows "- - - -" when a thermocouple is not connected.

The display shows 0L (overload) when the temperature being measured is outside the thermocouple’s valid range.

Model 54: If only thermocouple T2 is connected, the T2 reading appears in the primary display.

Holding the Displayed Temperatures

1.Press hto freeze the readings on the display. The display shows H.

2.Model 54: Press Tto toggle showing the T1, T2, or T1-T2 readings in the primary or secondary display.

3.Press hagain to turn off the HOLD function.

Viewing the MIN, MAX, and AVG Readings

1.Press Mto step through the maximum (MAX), minimum (MIN), or the average (AVG) readings.

The elapsed time since entering MIN MAX mode, or the time at which the minimum or maximum occurred, appears on the display.

2.Press G, M(CANCEL) to exit MIN MAX mode.
