Jeff, there are various types of thermocouples. T,K,J, etc.

See link below for more info. It’s very important to use the correct type .

The thermocouple input feature allows you to use the thermometer as a digital readout. Very handy for HVAC tech to check on how the AC is working using temperature differentials on the refrigerant lines.
