Example:
1st color band is blue so the first digit is a 6
2nd color band is red so the second digit is a 2
3rd color band is yellow so multiply 62 x 10,000
4th color band is gold so the tolerance is ±5%
Your Resistor value is 620,000 Ohms (620kΩ) with a tolerance
of ±5%.

To Measure Temperature:
1. Connect the thermocouple to the temperature adapter with
the “+” on the thermocouple lining up with the “+” on the
adapter and the “K” on the thermocouple lining up with the
“-” on the adapter.
2. Plug the temperature adapter into the 61-492 with the “+”
inserted into the port and the “-” inserted into the COM port.
3. Set the rotary switch to either the °F or °C position.
4. Measure temperature.
