Definitions
Infrared heat radiation
Infrared heat radiation is electromagnetic radiation emitted
by every body. The amount of radiation depends on the tem-
perature and the emissivity degree of the body.
Emissivity Degree
The emissivity degree of an object depends on the material
and the structure of its surface. It states how much infrared
heat radiation the object emits compared to an ideal heat
emitter (black body, emissivity degree = 1).
Thermal Bridge
A thermal bridge is an object that undesirably transmits heat
outwards or inwards, therefore differing significantly from the
temperature of the rest of a wall or from the desired tempera-
ture of a wall.
As the surface temperature at thermal bridges is lower than in
the rest of the room, the risk of mould increases significantly
at these locations.
Reflected temperature/reflectivity of an object
The reflected temperature is the thermal radiation that is not
emitted by the object itself. Depending on the structure and
material, background radiation is reflected in the object to be
measured, therefore distorting the actual temperature result.
Distance from the object
The distance between the object being measured and the
measuring tool influences the captured area size per pixel.
You can capture increasingly large objects as the distance
from the object becomes greater.

TrackMyTools
The built-in Bluetooth® Low Energy Module enables you to
personalise and check the status of your measuring tool, as
well as transfer settings and data using Bluetooth® wireless
technology.
TrackMyTools Bluetooth® module power supply
The measuring tool is fitted with a button cell so that it can still
be detected by a mobile device using TrackMyTools without
having a battery pack 23 or batteries inserted.
You can find further information directly in the app from
Bosch.
Data Transmission
You can switch the TrackMyTools Bluetooth® module on and
off in the tool settings. It then emits a continuous signal.
The transmission interval of the module is eight seconds.
Depending on ambient conditions, up to three transmission
1 609 92A 3RD | (22.8.17)
intervals may be required before the measuring tool is de-
tected.
Note: Switch TrackMyTools off in areas where the transmis-
sion of radio waves is prohibited, for example on aeroplanes.
Registering and setting up the app/web-based
application
Before you can use TrackMyTools, you need to register online.
To do this, open the website www.bosch-trackmytools.com
and register. After registration is complete, you will receive
your access information.
Download the app TrackMyTools from the relevant app store
(Apple App Store, Google Play Store) or access the web appli-
cation at https://web.bosch-trackmytools.com, where you
can log in using your access details.
You can now create and manage your inventory using the
app/web-based application.
Note: First, complete the tutorial for the app/web-based ap-
plication. This will provide you with a better overview of the
procedure for creating the inventory and using the software.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Store and transport the measuring tool only in a suitable con-
tainer such as the original packaging or the protective pouch
(accessory). Do not affix any stickers near to the infrared sen-
sor on the measuring tool.
Keep the measuring tool clean at all times.
When cleaning, fluids should not penetrate into the measur-
Infrared range
ing tool.
width x height (m)
Do not attempt to remove dirt from the sensor, camera or re-
ception lens using pointed objects, and do not wipe over the
~0.5 x 0.4
camera and reception lens (risk of scratching).
~1 x 0.75
If you would like your measuring tool to be recalibrated,
2.05 x 1.5
please contact a Bosch service centre (for addresses, see
5.1 x 3.8
section "After-sales Service and Application Service").
If the event of a repair, send in the measuring tool in the origi-
nal packaging or in the protective pouch (accessory).
The integrated button cell may only be removed for disposal
by qualified personnel. Opening the housing shell can destroy
the measuring tool. Unscrew the screws on the housing and
remove the housing shell in order to remove the button cell.
