GENERAL DESCRIPTION

HH610-SW is an application software that allows the
transfer of data from Omega portable and bench meters
to a personal computer.

The software is available in two versions, HH610-SW16
(for Windows®3.11) and HH610-SW32 (for Win­dows®95) and it helps the elaboration of data collected
by Omega models.

The data can be stored in XLS format and exported in CSV
format. The stored data can be displayed and printed
using commercial spreadsheet programs such as Excel®.

During setup, the program will ask for the Omega
Instruments model and for additional information such
as user name. The software provides a list of all Omega
meters that can be chosen.

Make sure that you select the correct meter. In
fact, once a model number is selected, that will
be the only operative model.
