Constant Output Probe

The constant output probe HMP110REF is a testing accessory that can

be used to check transmitter's functions and measurement signal transfer

chain all the way to the control system. The constant output probe does

not measure humidity and temperature; instead, it outputs constant

humidity and temperature readings.

The values output by the constant output probe are specified when

ordering. These values are written on an additional label on the probe

body.

The procedure for using the constant output probe is simply to replace

the original probe for the duration of the testing:

1.

Disconnect the normal probe from transmitter.

2.

Connect the constant output probe to the transmitter.

3.

Check that all used outputs (analog, display, serial line) show the

correct measurement values.

4.

After checking the outputs, disconnect the constant output probe

and reconnect the original probe.

NOTE

The transmitter goes to the error state for a short time when the probe is

changed. This is normal.
