Before making a conguration of MinIPAQ-L you need to do

following:

1. Install the PC conguration software ConSoft in your PC. The soft­ware is included in the PC Conguration Kit 70CFGUS001 and can also
be downloaded from the web site www.inor.com.

2. Install the PC conguration software MinIPAQ Soft, version 1.23.01
or later, in your PC. The software is included in the PC Conguration Kit
70CFGUS001 and can also be downloaded from the web site www.inor.com.

3. Install the drivers for the INOR USB Interface. The drivers are included
in the PC Conguration Kit 70CFGUS001.

Conguration procedure:

The help le in MinIPAQ Soft contains complete information about the
conguration procedure. Here is a short-form guide:

1. Connect the MinIPAQ-L to the PC via the USB Interface. Conguration
can be performed with or without connected power supply.

2. In ConSoft, click on “Connect”, and the software will automatically
recognize the connected transmitter.

3. Click on the highlighted “MinIPAQ” in the menu tree of ConSoft and
the “MinIPAQ Soft” conguration window will open.

4. Be sure to set the Communication port in MinIPAQ Soft (under Op­tions) to the same port No. as indicated in the lower left corner of the
ConSoft window, e.g. COM8.

5. In the conguration window you can set the following parameters:
a. Input (RTD or Thermocouple type)
b. 3- or 4-wire connection (for RTD input)
c. Activation of Cold Junction Compensation (for T/C input)
d. Measuring range in three different engineering units
e. Upscale or downscale action at sensor break or short-circuit
f. Compensation for known sensor errors
g. Activation of a Low pass lter

6. The selected conguration is downloaded to the transmitter by click­ing the button “Transfer to transmitter”. If the transmitter is in operation
during transmission from the PC, the transmitter output is frozen. When
the transfer is complete, the transmitter begins using the new parameters
directly.

It is recommended to check the calibration once a year. Use equipment
with an inaccuracy of at least 5 times better than the checked transmitter,
e.g. if you are checking a transmitter with an inaccuracy of maximum

0.1% use instrument with an inaccuracy of maximum 0.02%.
Use the MinIPAQ Soft Basic Calibration function in the Options menu, and
follow the instructions on the screen.
