Digital Thermometer
INTRODUCTION
This instrument is a 4½ digit, compact-sized portable digital thermometer
designed to use external K/J/T/E/R/S/N-type thermocouples as temperature
sensor.TemperatureindicationfollowsReferenceTemperature/VoltageTables
(N.I.S.T. Monograph 175 Revised to ITS-90) for K/J/T/E/R/S/N-type thermo-
couples. Two K-type thermocouple are supplied with the thermometer.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Itisrecommendedthatyoureadthesafetyandoperationinstructionsbefore
using the thermometer.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, do not use this instrument when working
voltages at the measurement surface over 24V AC or DC.
WARNING
To avoid damage or burns, do not make temperature
measurement in microwave ovens.
CAUTION
Repeated sharp flexing can break the thermocouple leads. To prolong
lead life, avoid sharp bends in the leads, especially near the connector.
The
symbol on the instrument indicates that the operator must refer to an
explanation in this manual.

Power Switch
The key turns the thermometer on or off. In the MIN MAX record mode
can not power off, must leave MIN MAX record mode then power off.
°C/°F Selecting the Temperature Scale
Readings are dual 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/°F key.
3
HOLD Mode (only Main display)
Pressing the HOLD key to enter the Data Hold mode, the "HOLD" annun-
ciator is displayed. When HOLD mode is selected, the thermometer held
the present readings and stops all further measurements.
Pressing the HOLD key again to cancel HOLD mode causing thermometer
to resume taking measurements.
In the MIN/MAX recording mode, press HOLD key to stop the recording.
Press HOLD key again to resume recording. (Previously recorded reading
are not erased).

The input selection indicates which input is selected for main display; T1
thermocouple, T2 thermocouple or the difference between the two thermo-
couples (T1-T2), when the thermometer is turned on, it is set to T1,
When main display input selected T1, then T1 input can select alternate of
thermocouple by pressing TYPE key switch.

in use when the thermometer was last turned off.
MIN MAX with Time record Mode (only Main display)
Press MIN MAX key to enter the MIN MAX Recording mode, (displays the
Maximum reading with time, Minimum reading with time and Average
reading stored in record mode). In the this mode the automatic power-off
feature is disabled and
key, °C/°F key, REL key, SET key, Hi/Lo Limits
key and main display T1 T2 T1-T2 key, TYPE key are disabled.
The beeper emits a tone when a new minimum or maximum value is
recorded.
Push MIN MAX key to cycle through the MAX, MIN and AVG readings.
If an overload is recorded, the averaging function is stopped and average
value display"----.-".

The true average of all the reading taken over at least 22 hours preiod can
be displayed. If 22 hours is exceeded, new averages are no longer
calculated. Thelastcalcalatedvalueisretainedastheaveragereading, but
the actual minimum and maximum reading will continue to be captured.
In the this mode, press HOLD key to stop the recording of readings, all
values are frozen, press again to restart recording.

7 REL Relative mode (only Main display)
Pressing REL key to enter the Relative mode, zero the display, and store
the displayed Reading as a reference value and annunciator REL is
displayed. Press REL key again to exit the relative mode.
The relative value can also be entered by the user. (See "SET mode" later
in this manual.)
When the desired Relative value has been entered, press REL key to enter
the Relative mode, press SET key use set Relative value as a reference
value. Press REL key again to exit the relative mode.
In the Relative mode, the value (can not >±3000.0 counts) shown on the
LCD is always the difference between the stored reference and the present
reading.

8 Hi/Lo LIMITS mode (only Main display)
Press Hi/Lo LIMITS key to enter the Hi/Lo Limits comparative mode,
"LIMIT" is displayed. In the this mode the automatic power-off feature is
disabled and REL key, HOLD key, MAX/MIN key are disabled, when input
temperature value exceed Hi. The beeper emits a continuity pulse tone and
"Hi" is displayed, and when input temperature value exceed Lo value.The
beeper emits a discontinuous pulse tone and "Lo" is displayed. Press Hi/Lo
LIMIT key again to exit the Hi/Lo LIMIT mode.

HH 506(R)/HH 507(R) CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Note: The following calibration procedure should perform only by qualified technicians
who have access to the items as following.
Equipment: The class of calibrator had better 10 times greater than the measured meter.
1. Set the jumper position on J1 position.
2. Input DCV 17mV to the T1 after the display is stabilized (forward 4 digits), then
press “ HOLD “ key and "0.0" is displayed in main display.
3. Input DCV 60mV after the display is stabilized (first 4 digits), then press
“ HOLD “ key and "0.1" is displayed in main display.
4. Input 0LC (K-type) after the display is stabilized (first 4 digits), then press
“ HOLD “ key and "0.2" is displayed in main display.
5. Don't push any key and the meter will turn off automatically after 20 seconds.
6. After adjustment set the jumper back to J3 position.
7. Turn on the meter then input 0LC (K-type). The display reading reads 0°C if
the calibration procedure is right.
