Outline of Key Operation
About Key Operation
- By pressing the
key, the instrument proceeds to each setting item.
- Set each setting item with the
or
key. Set values are immediately validated.
- If 10 seconds elapse with no selection made, the instrument automatically returns to
[Indicates object temperature (After signal processing)].
If thekey is pressed again, the instrument will revert to the last setting item.

RD-622-LM | 100.0 | 300.0 |
RD-675-HM | 350.0 | 600.0 |
Emissivity
Emissivity is a ratio between the amount of energy radiated from a black body with a certain temperature (or an object with perfect radiation), and the amount of energy radiated from an object with the same temperature.
Accordingly, emissivity value is high for an object which easily radiates infrared, and low for an object which radiates infrared with some difficulty.
For objects such as organic substances and ceramics, etc. (except metals), their emissivity value is high, which ensures a highly accurate measurement.
On the other hand, emissivity is low in lustrous metals and lustrous objects, resulting in measurement being affected by reflection. By attaching a black body tape to the object surface, high measurement accuracy can be obtained.
For tables of emissivity, refer to Appendix A (Emissivity Table: Metals) and Appendix B (Emissivity Table: Non-Metals) at the end of this manual.
Peak Hold:
The following diagram shows the result of the peak hold process, set at 1 sec.
Measurement
Important
- If ambient temperature is rapidly changing, leave the sensor for more than 20 minutes as it is, then measure the temperature.
- Do not measure temperature near a large magnetic field (example: Arc welding machine, induction heater, etc.). Measurement errors will occur due to electromagnetic disturbance.
- Indication may not be stable due to the mounting environment.
The sensor will detect any light reflected from the target object from surrounding light sources.
After installation of the target object and wiring are completed, start operation, following the procedures below.
- Turn the power ON.
After the power is turned ON, the LCD display indicatesfor several seconds.
After that, the temperature of the target object will be indicated on the LCD display.
Backlight Color Switching
Backlight of the LCD display differs depending on the RD-600 status.
RD-600 Status | Backlight |
When normal | Green |
When Low limit alarm output is ON. | Blue |
When High limit alarm output is ON | Red (Open collector output ON) |
When both Low limit alarm output and High limit alarm output are ON. | Purple (High limit alarm output: Open collector output ON) |
Error message
- Turn the power ON.
When errors occur, an error message will appear. (Backlight: Green) For the error contents, see (Table 7-1, p.27).
(e.g.) - Turn the indicator/controller power ON. (When indicator/controller is connected)
