How do I use the temporal thermometer?

Steps for using the Thermometer

1. Press the blue thermometer, or head, button as you touch the sensor to the student’s forehead.
2. Keep the button pressed for the entire scan.
3. Start at one temple, and in a single motion, scan across the forehead to the other temple.
4. When you finish the scan, let go of the button.
5. The temp will appear in degrees Fahrenheit on the screen. Enter that number into the app under Temperature.
