On your device:
Download the Klein Tools App (available for free from Google Play
TM
or
the App Store
®
). Launch the Klein Tools App on your device. To properly
connect to TI290 and store images on your device, accept all pop-up
app permissions. Tap the "Connect" button on the app and select/join
the KT-TI290 Wi-Fi network. If your device prompts you to connect to
device, tap the "Connect" button. If the KT-TI290 Wi-Fi network is not
found, ensure that Wi-Fi is enabled in your device's settings.
Once connected, tap the "Transfer Photos" button. All images will

EMISSIVITY
Emissivity is a measure of the ability of a surface to emit thermal
energy by radiation. Different types of surfaces (metals, masonry,
wood, etc.) emit thermal energy through radiation at different
efficiencies. Accordingly, these materials have different emissivity
coefficients which must be considered in order to make accurate
measurements with an infrared thermometer.
Emissivity on the TI290 may be adjusted from 0.01 to 0.99 to enable
accurate measurement of the temperature of most types of materials.
Generally speaking, shiny bright surfaces such as chrome, white
boards, etc. exhibit lower emissivity than flat black materials.
For guidance only, the chart below may be used to estimate
emissivity for many different types of materials. However, the
emissivity of surfaces is dependent upon many parameters such as
surface finish, temperature, shape of the object, etc.
This chart should be used for guidance only.
Material Emissivity
Asphalt 0.93
Red brick 0.93
Gray brick 0.75
Porcelain ceramic 0.92
Fired clay 0.91
Rough concrete 0.94
Cotton cloth 0.77
Smooth glass 0.92 - 0.94
Granite 0.45
Gravel 0.28
Smooth ice 0.97
Smooth white marble 0.56
Black paint 0.96
Hard rubber 0.94
Wood 0.80 - 0.90
Matte copper 0.22
Commercial sheet aluminum 0.09
Cold rolled steel 0.75 - 0.85
