The instructions included were useless. Thank you SO MUCH for such an informative video. I was able to set-up my new IM-9001 and feel confident it is reporting accurately. God bless you!
Agree with several comments as the paper instructions were of little value. Thank YOU for this video! Can't believe I needed a video to figure out the change to fahrenheit!!!
Hello. Thanks for this great video. I have a question. My thermometer is stuck on memory data mode and only shows previous measurements. I can't get it to measure the temperature. Do you know how to change its mode back to measurement mode?
Thank you so much! I thought my CIX KV-11 non-contact thermometer was junk because I couldn't get it to read properly until watching your very informative video. I was going to return it but now it works as it's supposed to. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for doing this video. I thought that my thermometer which is a little different then yours but mostly the same only did calciols. But now I have it on my prefered Fahrenheit
I have a Dilantin medical infrared forehead thermometer. It’s a HG01. The 360 brand new choice + my calibration is different than the one you’re showing. Can you do one with the brand that I have so I can calibrated correctly?
The problem is that I am not feeling well, so I opened up the package to check my temp and now I can not calibrate it because I do not know whether I have a fever or not.
This was immediately better than any instructions that I could or could not find online...all I needed was to find out how to set to Fahrenheit and this was perfect. Thank you. One thing tho its telling me that we all have 103 fevers . Not true. My manual thermometers all read normal for us. Please help
You'll probably want to calibrate your thermometer using the Ice Water Method: Fill a glass with ice cubes, then top off with cold water. Stir the water and let sit for 3 minutes. Stir again, then insert your thermometer into the glass, making sure not to touch the sides. The temperature should read 32°F (0°C). Record the difference and offset your thermometer as appropriate.
@@ErinHealer i didn't think the would read that low. surface mode can be calibrated too and did that translate to body mode? I've always wondered why body mode and surface mode would be different readings
Thank you, Erin..this was helpful. I need to take accurate temps. How do I know how to calibrate it correctly? How did you know your daughter was at 98.6 and not a higher or lower number. Any info would be helpful.
I didn't actually know that. I was using that as an example of how to adjust the calibration. One method for calibrating your thermometer precisely is to use the Ice Water Method: Fill a glass with ice cubes, then top off with cold water. Stir the water and let sit for 3 minutes. Stir again, then insert your thermometer into the glass, making sure not to touch the sides. The temperature should read 32°F (0°C). Record the difference and offset your thermometer as appropriate.
I'm having an issue I didn't see addressed in the video. Where I use a thermometer is where people are coming in out of the cold weather. So when I take the temperature, it registers as a red "Lo". Therefore, I'm not getting a reading at all. After their body warms up a little, I'm able to take the temperature. Therefore, people are having to wait, which is not ideal. Have you encountered this or do you have a solution?
I have this same one and changed the batteries it loads up a few numbers i guess its the date then it just quits and wont do nothing, brand new batteries to and the unit is not very old I suppose i need to just toss it and get a new one
You saved me I thought I was doing something wrong the instructions were not as simple as I thought to change from c to f. Thank you I was just ready to throw it in the trash.
I think you are slightly wrong about the calibration function. You need to take the body temperature with another thermometer that you know is giving an accurate result. For example one you put under the tongue. You then compare the result with the touchless meter and adjust the touchless so it reflects the "actual" result. You don't know/didn't know if your daughter's temperature was actually normal 98.6 at that stage so therefore you adjusted the Touchless to make it read correct! I hope I explained that in a way that you understand. The other point is - the red screen means that the temperature reading is above normal ie: fever level - it also has a yellow screen which means a low body temperature result. Green screen result is normal.
How did you know the 97.9 was not the correct reading and your correction made her higher than she actually was? Did you know from previous reading of a accurate measuring device she was actually 98.6? What I want to do is next time I visit a doctors office is to compare the reading I get then correct to match the Doctors office reading.
I'm sorry, I don't know how to fix that problem. Have you tried taking the batteries out for about 5 minutes and then trying it again...kind of like a restart? Fingers crossed!!!!
Is there anything special that needs to be done to get an accurate temperature reading from the wrist? (For those who don't like this pointed at their forehead.)
I tried to return and they told me to watch your video. This does not work for me. When I get to F3 and hit up and down arrows it stays C and moves .05, .06, etc or -.02,-.03 etc. F NEVER shows as an option. Very frustrated.
Can this be used on the wrist or another part of the body.I feel this holding it to a persons head and pulling a trigger is such a awful symbol!isn't.also the forehead in this spot is the pineal gland.thanks
Right?! Adjusting it seems horrible. My temperature has never been 98.6 unless I’m verging on illness. This would wreck our thermometer for the others in our house.
could you tell me how to reset the thermometer? I have some issues with the thing taking my temperature and it keep turning on this trigger lock and my temperature keeps reading low
Hi, thanks for your question. I'm not an opthalmologist, but I read a few articles on the topic and they said that there is absolutely no need to worry, your eyes are not in danger when using an infrared thermometer. :)
I followed the video, but I had already tried to set it up and messed it up. Once I got back to the low part it is showing me 33.2 I can not get it to show the 1 digit like in your video could you Please help me?
Thank you for the video. Just one comment, I’m wondering if you checked her temperature with a thermometer to see if it really was 98.6. Your thermometer might be off now. I don’t know why you calibrated it to 98.6. She might be 97.9. I am most of the time.
Thanks, yes, you're right. I was just doing that as an example. If looking for precise measurements, it's best to calibrate using the Ice Water Method: Fill a glass with ice cubes, then top off with cold water. Stir the water and let sit for 3 minutes. Stir again, then insert your thermometer into the glass, making sure not to touch the sides. The temperature should read 32°F (0°C). Record the difference and offset your thermometer as appropriate.
I wish she would show which button is being pushed each time. Looking at the screen only shows the changes but it doesn’t help you to know which button will create the changes.
Thank you so much I bought one like this from thermodetect USA been trying to set it up seems I got a lemon wouldn’t recommend this place take the money and run but thanks for making this video it is awesome
So sorry to hear you got a lemon from that other company. I hope it gets worked out for you!!! Let me know if you need any help. I've got a link above in case you'd like to try this one.
Erin Muldoon Stetson Thank you Erin. I did get a Berrcom for 29.00 dollars local store and it worked out for me. I wrote to Thermodetect today and asked them send replacement As I have paid 49. Dollars for a not working product. I also got a oxi meter from them for 25.00 it gives multiple readings which is not helpful as great fluctuations are not helpful. Your videos are awesome and I was going to get one like yours as it is working with the help of Riley too cute and all of can learn from you. Best to you and yours Martha
helpful, but my gawd this thing is ridiculous, they couldnt make it any harder could they? U go too fast so I had to keep rewinding, and some of it didnt make any sense, not sure its all working right, these things are pretty stupid! Like when ur beaming it, it doesnt beep to tell its done, yes I have the beep mode on.
I went through multiple tutorials on how to use IR thermometers, and this one is the most detailed. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
The instructions included were useless. Thank you SO MUCH for such an informative video. I was able to set-up my new IM-9001 and feel confident it is reporting accurately. God bless you!
Glad it helped!
Thank you, I got the whole thermometer messed up at work. This video just made my 12hr shift easier. Thank you.
I'm very confused. My F1 is showing 28.4 I cant figure out what to do to calibrate it. Please help
Agree with several comments as the paper instructions were of little value. Thank YOU for this video! Can't believe I needed a video to figure out the change to fahrenheit!!!
You are so welcome!
Hello. Thanks for this great video. I have a question. My thermometer is stuck on memory data mode and only shows previous measurements. I can't get it to measure the temperature. Do you know how to change its mode back to measurement mode?
My wife has one of these. She never tried it until today. It makes a whistling noise when the batteries are put in without it being switched on.
How do you wipe the memory of the previous stored data ? I think mine is giving inconsistent readings. Thank you # trying to stay healthy
Thank you so much! I thought my CIX KV-11 non-contact thermometer was junk because I couldn't get it to read properly until watching your very informative video. I was going to return it but now it works as it's supposed to. Thanks again!
Excellent!
To calibrated ?would you use another thermometer or just a healthy child, and would i have to add one degree to the forehead reading results ?
My F1 says 32.7 and i don’t know how to fix it . Any time I try to take temperature it just says LO
Happened to mine too 🤦🏼♀️
@@michellemuggeridge1679 does it mean it’s broken ?
May I ask what is F1, F2, F3 and F4, how to set or do the setting
Thank you so much for doing this video. I thought that my thermometer which is a little different then yours but mostly the same only did calciols. But now I have it on my prefered Fahrenheit
I have a Dilantin medical infrared forehead thermometer. It’s a HG01. The 360 brand new choice + my calibration is different than the one you’re showing. Can you do one with the brand that I have so I can calibrated correctly?
Same!!
The problem is that I am not feeling well, so I opened up the package to check my temp and now I can not calibrate it because I do not know whether I have a fever or not.
I have a ir temperature sensor. However when I first turn it on, it seems ok then I get four beeps and it says on the screen high
Y it shows Lo..v also face ds problem as my guard pushes some button and it ahow Lo..tried to reset but it's showing Lo...pls tell d solution
Is there a way to check degrees up to 350 to 500 ?
Paper directions were useless but this video answered all my questions. Thank you!!
You're very welcome!

What does it mean when the screen turns red
Your f1 shows 0.0 mine shows 28.4 and won't go down. I can't figure this thing out
I'm having an issue I didn't see addressed in the video. Where I use a thermometer is where people are coming in out of the cold weather. So when I take the temperature, it registers as a red "Lo". Therefore, I'm not getting a reading at all. After their body warms up a little, I'm able to take the temperature. Therefore, people are having to wait, which is not ideal.

Interesting!!! I'm not sure what you can do about this. If you come up with a solution I'd love to hear it!!!!
Mine keeps triple beeping and saying Lo. Can't get it to do single beep.
I have the same problem
Oh no!!!! Have you tried taking the batteries out to reset it?
I have this same one and changed the batteries it loads up a few numbers i guess its the date then it just quits and wont do nothing, brand new batteries to and the unit is not very old I suppose i need to just toss it and get a new one
Why would you calibrate it to 98.7 if people are known to run hot or cold for their normal body temps?
My thermometer body is default on hi I was just messing with it and it's default is on hi always I don't know what to do now
Mine has a error.
It’s display Err 2 log 00 every time on the screen when I press the trigger
Any idea what’s the issue ?
You saved me I thought I was doing something wrong the instructions were not as simple as I thought to change from c to f. Thank you I was just ready to throw it in the trash.
I’m about to throw mine out the window because mine says 32 on F1
Does yours have a lock on it? And does it keep track of how many temps you've taken? If yes how remove the lock and the counter
Mine does not have a lock. Sorry that I can't help with that. :(
I followed your steps but mine will not change to Fahrenheit
Thanks so muchI have a jzk-601 device and i dont know how to set it ... please would any help
My thermometer shows HI.. how can i turn it LO?

correct!!!! thanks!!!
you are correct. She just made her daughter have a higher temp.
That was awesome and funny ty
❤
A termometr
Mine keeps saying hi. I cannot figure out how to reset?
How do i lower the volume?
I'm still confused about how to change Celsius to faranheight
I still don't understand why sometimes shows Low/Hi and other the number
Why is it so hard to open to put the battery in I got it open but to hard
With mine switching from C to F was done on F1 not F3.
Same!
mine is at F3....seems like they're all different.
How did you know the 97.9 was not the correct reading and your correction made her higher than she actually was?
Did you know from previous reading of a accurate measuring device she was actually 98.6?

Can u put it anywhere for example forehead and chest are much diff!normal forehead ,chest...high🤒
Thank you so much for your video. It has helped me so much.❤
thanks for your video
my thermometer just shows LO or HI and it does not show degrees please help me
I'm sorry, I don't know how to fix that problem. Have you tried taking the batteries out for about 5 minutes and then trying it again...kind of like a restart? Fingers crossed!!!!
Is there anything special that needs to be done to get an accurate temperature reading from the wrist? (For those who don't like this pointed at their forehead.)
Thanks so much, all things answerd without the panic of trying to work it out. Great video 😀😀
You're so welcome!

Same with mine
My thermometer works but the screen light doesnt come on. I would have to look at it closely to see the numbers. What can I do please?
I press the set button but nothing comes up it just shuts off.
Can this be used on the wrist or another part of the body.I feel this holding it to a persons head and pulling a trigger is such a awful symbol!isn't.also the forehead in this spot is the pineal gland.thanks
Yes, interesting thoughts. You can definitely use different parts of the body!!!
need help getting ti calibrated i cant seem to find the ,07 option on mine
the following video helped me a lot...as i am currently leaving in mexico and got spanish manuel😅
why does armpit temp goes above 100 f while forehead is 98 ish F
Cannot see the display on the thermometer. Do it again
Thank you the directions I got were so small I couldn't read them
Hi. Thanks for your video. I am getting an H and a I with a red screen when Im measuring anybody in body Mode. What can I do?
I'm not sure what's wrong. It's possible that your thermometer is faulty. See if you can return it and get a new one.
Just a little FYI, not everyone's normal temp is 98.6, but thanks for making this instructional video. Mine came with no instructions at all.
You're welcome!!
Right?! Adjusting it seems horrible. My temperature has never been 98.6 unless I’m verging on illness. This would wreck our thermometer for the others in our house.
Excellent. Crystal clear.
Thank you very much. I was crazy with the celcius.
Mine must be faulty as it won't turn on
still cant get mine to calibrate but i will keep trying must be doing something wrong
Thank you so much. This was so helpful and so clear I appreciate your help.
could you tell me how to reset the thermometer? I have some issues with the thing taking my temperature and it keep turning on this trigger lock and my temperature keeps reading low
I"m not sure. Maybe take the batteries out for about 5 minutes and start over. I hope that helps.
Also, check out this thermometer review vid. That might help: th-cam.com/video/Jxb14swfF8s/w-d-xo.html
Hi. Are there any warnings? Can it be dangerous for eyes?
Hi, thanks for your question. I'm not an opthalmologist, but I read a few articles on the topic and they said that there is absolutely no need to worry, your eyes are not in danger when using an infrared thermometer. :)
I would NOT even beam this at the forehead, use it on the wrist or the armpit!
f2 on f3 c f4 looks like 6l or bl then goes back to body f
I have one with an ERL code and my place is not hot nor cold.
Thank u so much u made that so easy to follow. Thank you Riley for your help
i get f1 f unit only shows up
This was really helpful even when I have a different model then you
Yay, I'm so glad that I could help!!!!
No help for me . When I hold the mode/set button it doesn't go to f1 2 or 3
I hold Set till it shows F1, then just press Set and with each push it changes to F2,F3,F4, off.
When would you need to or want to set it for Surface?
If you wanted or needed to measure the temperature of something that was not human. Maybe food that you were cooking or something?
@@ErinHealer thank you!
Or walking barefoot on asphalt!
It really helped. Thanks for making the video❤
Your demonstration if the infrared thermometer was excellent my only concern it may be the batteries with the unit..
Thank you so much. I was about to throw it away.
I followed the video, but I had already tried to set it up and messed it up. Once I got back to the low part it is showing me 33.2 I can not get it to show the 1 digit like in your video could you Please help me?
I think that part is now showing in Celsius. Mine is doing the same thing.
Mine's doing the same...but just added, or subtracted what I needed to...
thank you soo much you have assisted me on how to set God bless you.
Glad I could help
My temp runs 97.something normally anyways
Thank you so much for this video! ❤❤❤❤
My thermometer is not taking temperature it has the lock , help
Sorry, the model that I use does not have a lock. I hope that you're able to get this resolved.
Thank you for the video. Just one comment, I’m wondering if you checked her temperature with a thermometer to see if it really was 98.6. Your thermometer might be off now. I don’t know why you calibrated it to 98.6. She might be 97.9. I am most of the time.

This thing keeps beeping low no matter Who's temp I take
Very strange!!! (I love your username, haha). Have you taken the batteries out of the device yet to reset?
Whats wrong with mine? Just reads HI all the time
Thank you. The actual didn't have this instruction
I wish she would show which button is being pushed each time. Looking at the screen only shows the changes but it doesn’t help you to know which button will create the changes.
That's my problem, I can't see which button she's punching to change things.
Sorry about that. I'll try to go slower next time and show the buttons more clearly.
How to unlock
Thank you that’s was really helpful.
You're welcome!
Very thorough! Thanks.
You're welcome!!!
Thank you. I really appreciate this.
If someone does not know how to put in batteries they should not be taking anyone’s temperature.
Ha, probably true. I was surprised at the questions about it...but I figured it can't hurt to help those who were having trouble. :)
Mine literally wont open
Surely they can make it simpler to set. Damn
Thank you so much
