2.1 Description of the device
The multifunctional hand-held Omniport 30 is used for carrying out accurate measured value
detection. Several probes can be connected to the digital interface of the device for this purpo-
se.
The operating elements are found on the front and sides of the robust housing. A scratch proof
colour display with touch function (1) allows entering and selecting values and functions and
also displaying detected results. You can also navigate the device software by using the cross
control (3) and the "OK" key (5) and select measuring functions.
By pressing the "Back" key (2) you return to the previous screen of the device software.
Pressing the "Main menu" key (6) directly opens the main menu. Pressing the "Illumination on/
off" key (4) either switches the background illumination for the colour display and the keys on
or dims them.
Located above the colour display (1) is the connection for the digital probes (7). Here connect
the appropriate digital probe corresponding to situation. The universal interface of the digital
probes allows the multifunctional hand-held to automatically detect the probe construction, so
that after switching the device on the corresponding measuring mode is displayed automati-
cally. If no probe is connected, an error code (see chapter "Status and error codes") is shown
on the colour display (1). Depending on the probe type, it is calibrated to the prevailing sur-
rounding conditions after connection. Calculated by the multifunctional hand-held from the vari-
ous basic measured values, such as temperature and humidity, are the desired derived measu-
red values like dew point temperature, partial vapour pressure etc. The measured results of
the connected probe are shown in the device's colour display (1).
The "On/Off" key (9) and a USB connection (10) are found on the sides of the device.
You can connect the device to a computer by using the supplied USB connection cable. Then
you can extract and analyse your measured results with the SmartGraph3 software.
