LCD ERROR MESSAGES
The thermometer incorporates visual diagnostic messages
as follows:
‘Er2’: Displays when the thermometer is exposed to rapid
changes in the ambient temperature.
‘Er3’: Displays when the ambient temperature exceeds
32°F (0°C) or 122°F (50°C). The thermometer should be
allowed plenty of time (minimum 30 minutes) to stabilize to
the working/room temperature.
For all other error messages it is necessary to reset the ther-
mometer. To reset it, wait for the instrument to power off,
remove the battery and wait for a minimum of one minute,
reinsert the battery and turn it on. If the error message
remains please contact Dwyer Customer Service
Department for further assistance.

The Model DKT-1 Pocket-Size Thermocouple
Thermometer accurately monitors temperatures in a vari-
ety of applications. The wide measurement range and
selectable engineering units allow users to easily view read-
ings in either °F or °C . The automatic power down feature
conserves battery life. This compact thermometer accepts
any K-type thermocouple sensors (sold separately) with
min-plug connectors.
PROBE MEASUREMENTS
With the appropriate K-type thermocouple connected to
the thermocouple plug, the thermometer is ready to take
measurements. Power the thermometer on by pressing the
ON/HOLD button. The device will begin reading. The °F or
°C designator will flash while taking readings. The ther-
mometer will automatically power down after 4 minutes to
conserve battery life. Pressing the “ON/HOLD” key during
measurements will hold the current reading for 15 seconds.
After 15 seconds, the device will power down to conserve
battery life.
ENGINEERING UNITS
The thermometer can measure °F or °C. To change the
units, turn on the unit by pressing the “ON/HOLD”. Press
the “ON/HOLD” key again and the words “hold” will display.
While the display is holding the last reading, press the
“°C/°F” button to change the units.
