2.5.4 Trimmers
Figure 5 Component Board Adjustment
Trimmer
1 Use a Phillips head screwdriver (PH0)
to rotate the RH or T adjustment
trimmer. To increase the measurement
output value, rotate the trimmer
clockwise. To decrease, rotate
counterclockwise.
Note that there is a slight delay before
the measurement output changes
after rotating the trimmer.
You can adjust the transmitter's RH or T measurement output with the trimmers on the
component board. During trimmer adjustment, the output of the transmitter is corrected using
the trimmers until the output matches the known value of a reference.
Figure 6 RH and T Trimmer Adjustment Ranges (Indicative)
You can only calibrate the relative humidity measurement (RH) and temperature
measurement (T). Other parameters (available for HMD62) are calculated
internally based on RH and T. Check that the output selection DIP switch is set to
RH when making adjustments with the physical trimmer; when using the Insight
PC software, set all DIP switches to the OFF position.
CAUTION!
restore the factory settings, always return the physical trimmer to the middle
position before starting. When you make an adjustment with Insight, the
10
position in which the trimmer is at that point is set as the ±0 point.

You can change the humidity parameter that is output on the RH channel of HMD65 with the
DIP switches on the component board. Select the parameter you want the transmitter to
output by sliding the parameter's DIP switch to the right (ON). In the example in Figure 7
(page 11), the selected output parameter is dew point/frost point temperature (Tdf). Keep the
other DIP switches in the OFF position (left).

CAUTION!
Note that the humidity output parameter selected with the DIP
switches on the transmitter component board will be used instead of the
parameter selected with Insight. When using Insight to configure the output, set
all humidity parameter selection DIP switches on the transmitter component
board to the OFF position (left) to ensure they do not cause a conflict with the
Insight settings.
11
HMD65 User Guide M212243EN-A
If you use Insight to set both analog output channels to output T measurement,
the humidity parameter DIP switches do not have an eect on the output.
2.6 Filtering Factor
If the measuring environment produces occasional exceptionally high or low readings that
need to be averaged out in the output, you can apply a filtering factor to the RH or T output
(filtering factor range: 0.001 … 1.000). The filtering factor defines the speed at which the latest
measurement is integrated into the transmitter's output. By default, the filtering factor is set to
0.500, which means that the displayed output is a 50%+50% combination of the previous
measurement and the most recent measurement. To show the latest measurement directly in
the output, set the filtering factor to 1.000 (no filtering).
The following formula is used when calculating the output:
output = [(new (unfiltered) measurement × filtering factor) + (previous output × (1.0 - filtering
factor))]
The filtering factor can be configured with the Insight PC software.

Environmental Compensation
By default, the pressure value used in HMD65 measurement calculation is 1013.2 hPa. If the
pressure of your measurement environment diers from this, you can configure the
transmitter's pressure compensation value with the Insight PC software.

3.2 Duct Mounting Overview
Figure 9 Duct Installation Overview
Make sure there is a minimum clearance of 5 m (16.5 ft) between the probe body and any
1
possible humidifier. Avoid installing in a location where condensation can fall on the
sensor inside the duct.
2 When installing the transmitter, drill a second hole approximately 30 cm (12 in) from the
installation hole, towards the direction of the air flow, and plug it with a removable seal.
This second hole is intended for later use in reference measurement with another device
when calibrating or adjusting the transmitter.
3 Check that the duct diameter is suitable for the probe body (see Transmitter Dimensions
(page 13)). Ideally, the sensor (probe head) should be installed in the middle of the duct.
4 Maximum air flow speed: 50 m/s (with sintered filter).
5 Avoid installing the transmitter in dead legs. Supersaturation can occur in areas where
there is no air flow.
6 Do not install the probe in a downward angle. Condensation can travel to the sensor along
the probe body if the probe points down.
7 Install the probe in a 90° angle so that the sensor is placed as close to the middle of the
duct as possible.

To configure analog output with Insight:
1. Check that the output parameter selection DIP switches on the transmitter component
board are switched to the OFF position.
2. Connect to Insight and select > Configure Device > Analog Output 1[2].
3. Select the output mode (either 0 … 10 V, 0 … 5 V, 1 … 5 V, or O).
4. Select the output parameter.
The default analog output setup for HMD65 is 1 channel for RH and 1 channel
for T. Using Insight, you can set any RH and T output combination for the 2
channels (RH+RH, T+T, or RH+T).
5. Enter the lower and upper limits of the output scale for your selected parameter.
6. Set the error output value and the output clipping and error limits.
7. Select Save to store the configuration and exit the menu with Close when done.
4.4.1 Testing and Adjusting Analog Output Voltage (V) Level
• Computer with Windows operating system and Vaisala Insight software
installed
• Vaisala USB cable 219690 for connecting the probe to Insight
• Multimeter for checking the analog output voltage reading
