is compatible with the full range of Comark type-K

thermocouple probes.

4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

4.1 Selecting the Temperature Scale

Readings are displayed in either degrees

Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F). When

the thermometer is turned on, it is set to the

temperature scale that was in use when the

thermometer was last turned off. To change the

temperature scale, press the °C or °F key.

4.2 Single-Thermocouple Temperature

Measurement

The thermometer displays the temperature

of the thermocouple that is connected to the

selected input. Press the T2 key to display the

temperature of the thermocouple connected to

the T2 input. Press the T1 key to display the

temperature of the thermocouple connected

to the T1 input. The selection cursor indicates

which input is selected.

4.3 Differential Temperature

Measurement

Differential temperature measurement

is selected by pressing the T1-T2 key.

This causes the thermometer to display

the temperature difference between the

two thermocouples (the temperature of

thermocouple T1 minus the temperature of

thermocouple T2). The selection is indicated by

the input selection cursor.
