Introduction
The MDWXDOFP TOOLTOP ET12S is an advanced 2-in-1 device combining a thermal imaging camera with a digital multimeter. This compact and portable tool is designed for various applications, including circuit board inspection, power supply maintenance, electronic equipment repair, and home appliance overhaul. It features a 2.8-inch resistive touch screen, data transmission capabilities, and PC software analysis for comprehensive diagnostics.
The ET12S model offers a superior thermal imaging resolution of 90x120 pixels, providing more detailed thermal insights compared to basic models. Its multimeter functions include measuring DC voltage, AC voltage, resistance, diode, continuity, and capacitance.

Setup
1. Charging the Device
The ET12S features a built-in lithium battery. Before initial use, fully charge the device using the provided USB cable and a compatible USB power adapter. The charging indicator will show the charging status.
2. Power On/Off
- To power on: Press and hold the power button (usually marked with a power symbol) until the screen illuminates.
- To power off: Press and hold the power button again until the device shuts down.
3. Screen Operation
The device uses a resistive touch screen. For optimal responsiveness, it is recommended to use a fingernail or a stylus for screen interactions, rather than the skin of your fingertips.
4. Language Settings
The device supports both Chinese and English languages. To change the language, navigate to the settings menu on the device screen and select your preferred language option.
Operating Instructions
1. Switching Between Functions
The ET12S allows for one-click switching between its thermal imaging camera and multimeter functions. Use the dedicated button or on-screen icon to toggle between these two modes.
2. Thermal Imaging Mode
In thermal imaging mode, the device displays a thermal map with a resolution of 90x120 pixels. This higher resolution provides more detailed temperature distribution and hot/cold spot identification. The device performs a non-uniformity correction by calibrating its thermal imaging detector approximately every 10 seconds. This process involves a mechanical control calibration plate and may cause a brief pause of 1-3 seconds in the display. This is a normal operation to ensure accurate measurements.

3. Multimeter Mode
The multimeter function allows for various electrical measurements:
- DC Voltage: Measure direct current voltage.
- AC Voltage: Measure alternating current voltage.
- Resistance: Measure electrical resistance in ohms.
- Diode Test: Check the functionality of diodes.
- Continuity: Test for electrical continuity in circuits.
- Capacitance: Measure electrical capacitance.
4. Data Transmission and PC Software Analysis
The ET12S supports data transmission via USB. Connect the device to a computer using a USB cable to transfer locally saved thermal imaging pictures and multimeter measurement results. Dedicated PC software (download link provided in the Support section) allows for detailed analysis and display of this data on your computer.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning
Regularly clean the device casing with a soft, dry cloth. For the screen, use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for electronics screens. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the screen or casing.
2. Battery Management
To conserve battery life, the device is equipped with automatic screen turn-off and automatic power-off functions. Ensure the device is fully charged before extended use and store it with a partial charge if not used for long periods.
3. Storage
Store the ET12S in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity. Keep it protected from dust and physical impact.
Troubleshooting
1. Thermal Image Display Pauses
Issue: The thermal image display briefly pauses or freezes for 1-3 seconds periodically.
Solution: This is a normal phenomenon. The device performs a mechanical control calibration every 10 seconds to ensure accurate thermal measurements. This brief pause is part of the calibration process and does not indicate a malfunction.
2. Unresponsive Touch Screen
Issue: The touch screen does not respond consistently to finger touches.
Solution: The ET12S uses a resistive touch screen. For best results, use a fingernail or a stylus for screen interactions. Ensure the screen is clean and free of debris.
3. PC Software Connection Issues
Issue: Unable to connect the device to PC software or transfer data.
Solution: Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the device and the computer. Verify that the correct PC software drivers are installed. Try using a different USB port or cable. Refer to the PC software's documentation for specific connection instructions.
