TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The VT 300 is a multi-function instrument, compatible with all SMART PRO probes, and with all thermocouple K temperature probes. The SMART PRO probes are supplied with calibration or adjusting certificate (last calibration date display when connected). They areautomatically recognized when connected, and arefully interchangeable.

Delta T :
When 2 PT100 probes or 2 thermocouple K probes are connected, you have the possibility of calculate the Delta T which corresponds to the difference between the temperature measured by C1 (or T1) and C2 (or T2). If 2 PT100 probes and 2 thermocouple K probes are connected at the same time, the screen shows 2 delta T. To come out ofthis function, press the touch " ESC ". Reminder: possible only between 2 probes of identical technology.
Automatic average :
This function allows to calculate the average value that the device measured in an interval of chosen time. When "Departure" appears on the screen, press on the knob to start the calculation. The screen registers the sold time. To stop and reach the result, press again on the knob. The results are registered on the screen: average (s), minimum value (s), maximum value (s), standard deviation(s) as well as the duration ofthe calculation. Press on " ESC " to return to theprevious page (by pressing on the knob, you begin a new calculation).
Point / point average :
This function allows to calculate the average value of various points which you will have validated. The

s allows to validate a point or to reach the average of points previously validated. To validate a point, press on the knob. Validate as many points as necessary, then by means of the knob, choose "Average" andvalidate. The screen shows then:average(s), count ofvalidated points, minimum value(s), maximum value(s) and . To show the values of the various points, press on the knob. Press then on " ESC ": once to return to the previous display, twice to begin another calculation and three times to go out of the menu "point/ point average".
Automatic point / point average :
This function allows to calculate the average value of various points, calculated themselves on a duration beforehand defined. It is necessary to choose at first the duration on which will be calculated each of the points; figures by scrolling down the knob duration validated, the scrolling down menu gives you access to the validation of points and to the average.
