Using the Handheld Infrared Thermometer
2
Sending temperature data to PC in Real Time:
1. From Windows Operation System, Go to Start Program Omega
Infrared Temperature Measurement IRTM then click.
2. Check the RS232 connection between the infrared thermometer and the
PC. Select your serial COM Port number from the Communication Port
Setting menu on the menu bar. Turn on the infrared thermometer by
pulling & locking the trigger. From the program screen, click the Start
button. This initiates data transmission from the thermometer to the PC.
The data will fill in the screen as shown. If no data appears, you need to check
the COM port number or the RS232 connection. Here is a list of data sent:
Current Temperature = 74ºF
Distance=Unknown (Until distance measurement is made)
E=0.95 (Emissivity) HAL=1000ºF
(High alarm set point)
MAX = 85ºF LAL = -10ºF
(Maximum Temperature) (Low alarm set point)
MIN = 72ºF TC = 76ºF
(Minimum Temperature) (Thermocouple temperature)
DIF = 13ºF PRN = 2 second
(Differential Temperature) (Data Transmission interval)
AVG = 73ºF AMB = 75ºF
(Average Temperature) (Target Ambient temperature)
You can also start the data transmission from the thermometer side by
going to the PRN display menu, and pressing the key. The
icon will appear on the LCD and data transmission starts. You can stop the
data transmission from the PC side by clicking the Stop button. You can also
stop the data transmission from the thermometer side by pressing the
key again while in the PRN display menu. The icon will disappear
from the LCD, and data transmission stops.
