Ensure that the area to be measured of the test object is larger than the
measuring point. The smaller the test object, the smaller must be the distance
to the measuring device. The test object should be at least twice as large as
the measuring point to get an accurate measurement.
Emissivity
The emissivity describes the energy-emitting properties of materials. Most of
the organic materials (90%) have an emissivity of 0.95 (preset in the device).
The emissivity can be adjusted from 0.10 to 1.0.
