INFORMATION ABOUT THE DEVICE

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 purpose.
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 automatically.
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 surrounding conditions after connection.
Calculated by the multifunctional hand-held from the various basic measured values, such as temperature and humidity, are the desired derived measured 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.

5.25 Performing measurement (exemplary using probe for temperature and air flow measuring)
Note:
Note that moving from a cold area to a warm area can lead to condensation forming on the device’s circuit board. This physical and unavoidable effect can falsify the measurement. In this case, the colour display shows either no measured values or they are  incorrect. Wait a few minutes until the device has become adjusted to the changed conditions before carrying out a measurement.
After connecting a probe, the multifunctional hand-held automatically selects the appropriate measuring mode. The corresponding screen is displayed and the measurement begins.

ERRORS AND FAULTS

The accurate functionality of the device was tested during production a number of times.
However, if functionality faults do occur, then check the device according to the following list.
The device does not switch on:

• Check the loading status of the batteries. Replace the batteries when the battery symbol in the colour display only shows one bar. If the battery symbol is red, then the battery voltage is insufficient.
• Check that the batteries are properly positioned. Check that the polarity is correct.
• Never carry out an electrical check yourself

The device is switched on, but no measured values are displayed:

• Check whether the multifunctional hand-held is in the correct probe mode.

• Check the connected connection cable for correct fit.

• Check the used connection cable and its connections as well as the connections to the multifunctional hand-held for damage (e.g. broken cable, damaged contacts etc.). Use a different connection cable of the same type to rule out possible faults.

• Ensure that the appropriate probe for the measurement is being used. Here, also consider the general
  catalogue or the product catalogue for measuring devices.

• Ensure that the colour display is switched on. Possibly use the “Illumination on/off” key (see chapter “Device depiction”).

• Check the room temperature and the relative humidity. Check the device’s permissible operating range complies with the technical data.

• Check whether the multifunctional hand-held responds to touching of the colour display.
  If it shows no reaction despite an enabled colour display and sufficient battery power, remove the batteries for approx. 1 minute. Subsequently refit the batteries (see chapter “Inserting the batteries”) and restart the multifunctional hand-held.

USB or low battery failure: The battery is too low or the Omniport 30 is connected to the PC without or with low battery. Please change the battery and try it again.
