3.5.2 Calculating Temperature Values

The thermometer calculates the MAX, MIN, dIF, and AVG temperatures based on the current temperature.

°F

is the maximum temperature since the temperature measurement session starts (pulling the trigger).

°F

is the minimum temperature since the temperature measurement session starts.

°F

is the difference between the MAX and MIN temperatures.

°F

is the true average temperature since the temperature measurement session starts. The average temperature under continuous operation is accurate for a limited period of time (refer to the specifications). However, the AVG temperature function can be used indefinitely when the thermometer is operating intermittently.

°F

AVG ---is displayed when either of the following conditions occur:

1.When the average temperature measurement reaches its time period as stated in the specifications.

2.When the thermometer is trying to measure a target temperature which is outside of its measuring temperature range.

To clear the AVG ---display, turn off the thermometer.

NOTE

When the thermometer goes from the sleep mode to the real-time mode, the MAX, MIN, dIF and AVG temperatures are updated.

3.5.3 Changing the Temperature from °F to °C (or vice versa)

During the time that the thermometer displays either MAX, MIN,

dIF, or AVG temperatures, press the key to change all the temperatures from °F to °C or vice

versa.

3.5.4 Turning the Display Backlighting ON/OFF

During the time that the thermometer displays either MAX, MIN,

dIF, or AVG temperatures, press the key to turn the display backlighting ON/OFF.
