INTRODUCTION

The instrument hereafter referred to as “the Meter” is a battery powered meter that measures relative humidity and temperature. Through a few easy to use controls, the Meter displays three different temperature points of the air surrounding the meter’s sensor: ambient, wet bulb, and dew point.

Features

• Wireless two ways transmission. (THWD-10W only)
  • Highly stable humidity measurement ±2.5%.
• Processing %RH and temperature simultaneously.
• Two in one wide range thermometer and humidity function.
• Wet/Dry bulb, dew point and %RH.
• Easy switching between K/NTC/K-DP.
  • Max/Min/AVG/REL/HOLD function.
• APO function.

Power Switch

The “#” key turns the thermometer on or off. In the SET mode cannot be powered off. Exit SET mode to power off.

APO function mode

Press “power key for more than 4 seconds to disable the auto-power function.

The display will show "APO OFF".

“°C/°F” Selecting the Temperature Scale

Readings are 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.

Button

Press the “☀️” key to trigger on the backlight function, press the “☀️” key again to cancel the backlight function. The backlight will switch-off automatically after 30 seconds.

"REL" Button

Press the "REL" key to enter 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. In this mode, press "HOLD" key to stop reading, all values are frozen, press "HOLD" key again to restart reading.

"MAX/MIN" Button

Press "MIN/MAX" key to enter the MIN/MAX recording mode and REC shows on the display. The beeper emits a tone when a new minimum or maximum measurement is recorded. Press "MIN/MAX" key again to cycle through

the current readings:

MAX: The highest measurement recorded.

MIN: The lowest measurement recorded.

MAX-MIN: The difference of the highest and the lowest measurement.

AVG: The average values of the measurements.

Press "MIN/MAX" key over two seconds to exit the function. In this mode, press "HOLD" key to stop recording, all values are frozen, press "HOLD" key again to restart recording. In this mode, the APO function and other keys are disabled, excluding "HOLD" and Backlight keys. Press and hold down the "MAX/MIN" key for more than 2 seconds to exit the MAX/MIN function.

"HOLD" Button

Press the "HOLD" key to enter the data hold mode, the "HOLD" annunciator is displayed at the center-left of display. When data hold mode is selected, the meter held the present readings and stops all further measurements. Press the "HOLD" key again to cancel data hold mode, causing meter to resume taking measurements.

"WB/DP" Button

In the NTC data Mode, the Meter displays ambient temperature when first turned on. To display wet bulb(WB) temperature, press "WB/DP" key once. Press the "WB/DP" again to switch to dew point(DP) temperature. Press "WB/DP" a third time returns the Meter to ambient temperature.

"K/NTC/K-DP" Button

Press the "K/NTC/K-DP" key, the meter can cycle through "K-TYPE", "NTC", "KDP".

*K-DP = K-TYPE temperature minutes Dew point temperature.

"SAVE" Button

The save function stores the \%RH, K-TYPE, NTC, Wet bulb, Dew point data in a nonvolatile memory. Press the "SAVE" key to save the current data, the word SAVE is displayed to indicate the data are saved. The build in memory can store up to 256 data.

"READ", "▲", "▼" Button

To recall the readings from memory, press "READ" key. To check the memorized data just to press "▲" or "▼" until the desired memorized data is displayed. To return the meter to normal operation, press "READ" key again. * CLR SAVE DATA:

Pressing the “▲” key for more than 5 seconds to clears all the saved data in memory. And lower display show “Clr” about 2 second.

Wireless Mode: (THWD-10W)

Press the “◀” key for more than two seconds to start wireless function. Press the “◀” key again for another two seconds to stop wireless function. The wireless mode will shut down if there is no wireless signal for two minutes.

To SET CH/ID to 00,00, press the “▼” key and “⏻” power key for more than 6 seconds with the meter powered down. The meter will set channel and ID to 00,00 status. The second display will show 00, which means that the channel and ID has been set to 00.

To check the channel and ID of the meter When the meter is off, press “°C/°F” key and “☐” for 5 seconds, LCD’s main display will show channel number, the second display will show ID number.
