Charging the Battery
The device is equipped with a built-in Li-ion battery. Before first use, fully charge the device using the provided USB Type-C cable and a compatible USB power adapter (not included). The charging indicator on the device will show the charging status.
Powering On/Off
To power on the device, press and hold the power button until the display illuminates. To power off, press and hold the power button again until the device shuts down.
Operating Instructions
Thermal Imaging Mode
The thermal imaging mode allows for non-contact temperature measurement and visualization of heat patterns.
- Basic Operation: Point the camera lens towards the object of interest. The thermal image will appear on the LCD.
- Temperature Measurement: The device displays the center point temperature, as well as automatically tracking the highest and lowest temperatures within the field of view.
Image: Display showing automatic capture of high, low, and center point temperatures on a thermal image, indicating precise three-point temperature measurement.
- Color Palettes: The device offers 15 color palettes to enhance visualization of temperature differences. Navigate through the menu to select the desired palette.

- Saving and Viewing Images: The device allows you to save thermal images directly to its internal memory. Use the menu options to save and review captured images.
Multimeter Mode
The multimeter function provides various electrical measurement capabilities.
- Measurement Functions: The device supports AC/DC voltage, resistance, capacitance, diode, continuity, frequency, and duty cycle measurements.
- Connecting Probes: Insert the multimeter probes into the appropriate input jacks on the device.
- Range and Hold Functions: Use the 'RANGE' button to manually select measurement ranges or allow the device to auto-range. The 'HOLD' button freezes the current measurement on the display.
User Interface and Settings
- LCD Display: The 3.5-inch IPS high-definition LCD provides clear visuals. Brightness can be adjusted via the settings menu.
- Language Settings: The device supports multiple languages, including Chinese, English, and German. Access language settings through the main menu.
