4. Opsætning

4.1 Batteriinstallation

The BTMETER 980G requires one 9V battery (included). To install:

  1. Åbn batteridækslet, der er placeret nederst på håndtaget.
  2. Connect the 9V battery to the terminal clips, ensuring correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
  3. Placer batteriet i batterirummet, og luk dækslet forsvarligt.

5. Betjening

5.1 Tage en måling

  1. Ret termometeret mod måloverfladen.
  2. Press and hold the trigger to begin scanning. The laser pointer will activate (if enabled) to help aim. The display will show the current temperature.
  3. Release the trigger to hold the reading on the display for approximately 7 seconds. The 'HOLD' icon will appear.

5.2 Forholdet mellem afstand og punkt (D:S)

The BTMETER 980G has a D:S ratio of 16:1. This means that at a distance of 16 units, the measurement spot diameter will be 1 unit. For accurate readings, ensure the target area is larger than the spot size. Measuring closer to the object will result in a smaller spot size and more precise readings.

5.3 Justering af emissivitet

Emissivity (ε) is the ability of a material to emit thermal energy. Different materials have different emissivity values. For accurate measurements, adjust the emissivity setting (0.1 to 1.0) to match the target material. The default setting is 0.95, which is suitable for many organic materials and painted surfaces.

  • Press the 'MODE' button until 'EMS' appears on the display.
  • Use the Up/Down buttons to adjust the emissivity value.

5.4 Valg af enhed (℃/℉)

Press the ℃/℉ button to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature units.

5.5 Mode Functions (MAX/MIN/AVG/HAL/LAL)

Press the 'MODE' button repeatedly to cycle through the following functions:

  • MAKS: Displays the maximum temperature recorded during the current scan.
  • MIN: Displays the minimum temperature recorded during the current scan.
  • AVG: Displays the average temperature recorded during the current scan.
  • HAL (Høj alarm): Set a high temperature threshold. If the measured temperature exceeds this value, an alarm will sound and 'H' will display.
  • LAL (Lav alarm): Set a low temperature threshold. If the measured temperature falls below this value, an alarm will sound and 'L' will display.

To set HAL or LAL values:

  1. Select HAL or LAL mode using the 'MODE' button.
  2. Use the Up/Down buttons to adjust the desired alarm temperature.

5.6 Automatisk sluk

The thermometer will automatically shut off after approximately 10 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery life.

6. Vedligeholdelse

6.1 Rengøring

To clean the thermometer, wipe the casing med annonceamp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water. Keep the lens of the infrared sensor clean for accurate readings.

6.2 Udskiftning af batteri

When the battery indicator on the LCD display shows low power, replace the 9V battery as described in Section 4.1. Dispose of used batteries responsibly.

7. Fejlfinding

  • Ingen skærm/enhed tænder ikke: Kontroller, om 9V-batteriet er installeret korrekt og har tilstrækkelig opladning. Udskift batteriet om nødvendigt.
  • Upræcise læsninger:
    • Ensure the target surface is larger than the measurement spot size.
    • Kontroller, at emissivitetsindstillingen stemmer overens med det materiale, der måles.
    • Check for obstructions or dirt on the infrared sensor lens.
    • Ensure the distance to the target is appropriate for the 16:1 D:S ratio.
  • Laseren virker ikke: Check if the laser pointer is enabled using the Laser/Backlight button.
  • Skærmbaggrundsbelysning virker ikke: Check if the backlight is enabled using the Laser/Backlight button.
