5. Instruccions de funcionament
5.1 Prendre una mesura
- Apunteu el sensor d'infrarojos cap a l'objecte objectiu.
- Press and hold the measurement trigger. The display will show the real-time temperature reading.
- Release the trigger to hold the last measured temperature on the display (Data Hold). The device will automatically power off after a period of inactivity to conserve battery.
5.2 Relació distància-punt (D:S)
The MS 6520B has a Distance to Spot Ratio (D:S) of 10:1. This means that at a distance of 10 units from the target, the measurement spot diameter will be 1 unit. For accurate readings, ensure the target area is larger than the measurement spot size.

5.3 Emissivitat
The device has a fixed emissivity setting of 0.95, which is suitable for most organic materials, painted surfaces, and many non-metallic objects. For highly reflective surfaces, readings may be less accurate.
5.4 Selecció d'unitats (°C/°F)
Premeu el botó °F/°C button to toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature units.
5.5 Llum de fons
Premeu el botó Llum de fons button to turn the display backlight on or off. This feature is useful in dimly lit environments.
5.6 Punter làser
Premeu el botó Làser button to activate or deactivate the laser pointer. The laser helps in precisely identifying the measurement target.
5.7 MAX/MIN/AVG Modes
Premeu el botó M (Mode) button to cycle through different display modes while the trigger is held down:
- MÀXIM: Displays the maximum temperature recorded during the current measurement session.
- MIN: Displays the minimum temperature recorded during the current measurement session.
- AVG: Displays the average temperature recorded during the current measurement session.
6. Manteniment
6.1 Neteja
- Netegeu el dispositiu casing amb un suau, damp tela. No utilitzeu netejadors abrasius ni dissolvents.
