1 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on the purchase of your HHTFO Series thermometer product! Your new temperature- sensing instrument will soon allow you to take full advantage of the benefits inherent to fiber optic sensing technology. It offers accurate and reliable temperature measurements, combined with extraordinary insensitivity to EMI/RFI, high voltage insulation and disturbance free sensing due to the non-electrical nature of the sensor element used. Not only does the HHTFO Series of

Warning The flash card must be formatted before use. Furthermore, it is important to format it in FAT or FAT16 (not FAT32). Supported card size is limited to 1Gbyte (larger formats are not supported by FAT16). You can format your flash cards on a PC, if you want; however, make sure you format it in FAT16. The HHTFO includes a format command, where FAT16 is always used. The HHTFO is designed so it can only write to SD flash cards. To read back temperature data, remove the card from the

Take note that this format function will only perform a “quick format” procedure; if you want to do a full format, please use your PC to perform a format operation. Furthermore, you will not be able to format a flash card that is not already formatted in FAT16 (use a PC computer to format a card that would be in FAT32). 4.5.3 The Enable sub-menu This sub-menu allows you to engage or disengage the logging feature.

The lock feature on your SD card is engaged. You need to unlock it before using the card. The HHTFO is running from the internal batteries. Icon indicates the approximate amount of charge remaining. When almost fully empty, the message “LOW BATTERY” is also displayed, for about 5 to 15 minutes, before auto-shutting off without further warning. Note: This display is only valid when rechargeable batteries (NiMH or NiCd) are used; if you are using non-rechargeable alkaline batteries, the c

5 USING TEMPERATURE PROBES 5.1 Caution Each time you connect a temperature probe to the unit, the probe optical connector should be cleaned beforehand. Otherwise, particles of grease or dirt may obstruct the device internal connector and affect the measurements by completely blocking the signal or by generating too much attenuation when using a long fiber length. Never use a cloth other than the type recommended for fiber optic cleaning. Dampening the cloth with pure isopropyl alcohol e

5.3 Warning The T1 probe is quite fragile and it must be handled carefully. Please note that any probe damages are not covered by the standard warranty. The probe tip is made of silicone rubber. Although silicone is resistant to a large number of chemical aggressors, strong acids or alkali may damage it, especially at high temperature and/or if used for extended periods of time. Warning: Strong solvents and fuel oils can cause problems for silicone rubber. Omega Engineering also manufa

6 SERIAL COMMUNICATION DESCRIPTION You can communicate with your thermometer via the standard RS-232 link. A description of the cable requirements is given above, under front panel item # 3. RS-232 functions (or commands) can be accessed with a simple terminal, with the FOB100-SOFT software package or simply with a computer and communication software (such as Windows Hyper Terminal). Your software should be set at 9600 Baud, 1 Stop-Bit and No-Parity. 6.1 Using Hyper Terminal in Windows
