5. Uputstvo za upotrebu
5.1 Mjerenje
- Point the infrared sensor towards the surface you wish to measure.
- Press and hold the measurement trigger. The 8-point laser will activate, indicating the approximate measurement area.
- The temperature reading will appear on the display. Release the trigger to hold the reading.
- The device has an optics ratio of 12:1, meaning that at a distance of 12 units, the measurement spot diameter is 1 unit. For example, at 12 meters, the spot diameter is 1 meter. Ensure you are at an appropriate distance for accurate readings.

5.2 Načini mjerenja
The PTIA 1 offers different operating modes:
- Jednostavno mjerenje: This is the default mode for quick, direct temperature readings of a surface.
- Reference Measurement: In this mode, you can set a reference temperature. The device will then display color indications and signals to highlight differences between the measured value and the set reference value, which is useful for identifying anomalies like thermal bridges. Consult the on-screen prompts or specific mode button for activation.

5.3 Automatsko isključivanje
To conserve battery life, the device will automatically shut down after approximately 60 seconds of inactivity.
6. Održavanje
6.1 Čišćenje uređaja
- Obrišite uređaj mekom krpom, damp tkanina. Nemojte koristiti abrazivna sredstva za čišćenje ili rastvarače.
- Ensure the infrared lens is clean and free of dust or debris for accurate measurements. Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optics.
- Ne uranjajte uređaj u vodu ili bilo koju drugu tečnost.
6.2 Zamjena baterije
When the battery change indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries as described in the 'Battery Installation' section (4.1). Always replace all batteries at the same time with new ones of the same type.
6.3 Skladištenje
Uređaj čuvajte na hladnom i suhom mjestu, dalje od direktne sunčeve svjetlosti i ekstremnih temperatura. U slučaju dužeg skladištenja, izvadite baterije kako biste spriječili curenje.
7. Otkrivanje problema
