Why is the output temperature not stable on my horiba IT-480 S Thermometer?
- V
  Vicki TorresAug 11, 2025
  The output temperature might be unstable due to several reasons. There could be a source of intense electromagnetic waves nearby; in this case, increase the distance from the electromagnetic wave source, or install an electromagnetic wave shield. Another cause might be air flow from a fan or other source causing temperature instability; shield the unit and object from the air flow. Finally, the unit's temperature might be constantly changing due to heat from a heater or other source; install a thermal shield plate or insulate so that the unit temperature is stable.

What to do if my horiba IT-480 S Thermometer output temperature is too low?

  If the output temperature is too low, consider these potential causes. The emissivity might not be sufficient, so adjust it. The lens might be dirty; clean it using dehydrated ethanol. If the object is small, change the distance so that the object is approximately 1.5 to 2 times the target size. Check if the installation direction is incorrect and correct it using a laser pointer or setting gauge. Finally, ensure there is no obstacle between the object and the lens, and remove any if found.

  If there is no output, first check the power/output cable to ensure power is being supplied. Also, verify that the power supply voltage is correct and change it if necessary. Finally, check the wiring and polarity, and wire the power/output cable correctly.

What to do if my Horiba Thermometer current output is less than 2.4 mA?
- K
  Kristin GarciaAug 29, 2025
  If the current output is less than 2.4 mA, it could be due to the body temperature being less than 0°C or more than 55°C. Insulate or take other measures to bring the temperature within 0°C to 55°C. Alternatively, an internal error might have been detected. In this case, shut off the power supply, and then supply the power again.

How to fix a Horiba Thermometer laser pointer that does not emit light?
- R
  Ryan FletcherSep 4, 2025
  If the laser pointer does not emit light, first check if the laser output port is blocked and remove any dirt or foreign matter. If that's not the issue, emission might have stopped due to external electrical noise; wait briefly and then press the button again. Lastly, ensure power is supplied by checking the power/output cable.
