A connected contact probe or a separate contact thermometer is required. The
emission level is calculated via a comparison of the measured surface
temperatures (contact measurement and IR measurement).
Automatic calculation is not possible if the temperature difference between the
measurement object and the surrounding environment is too low or the infrared
reading is higher than the contact reading: - - - is displayed and the previously set
value is retained.
