CONGRATULATIONS ON PURCHASING A
MICROMATE!
With so many features, the Instantel® Micromate redefines
industry standards for functionality and ease of use.
A color touch screen display provides access to a simple and
efficient menu driven operating system. This is further
enhanced with the use of context sensitive icons and quick
access short cut icons.
The Micromate also includes a keypad for added flexibility.
Whether you prefer touch screens, keypads, or a combination
of both, you will find the Micromate intuitive to use and easy
to learn. The full display touch screen QWERTY keyboard
makes entry of data and notes convenient and easy.
The Micromate supports USB 2.0 with operating speeds up to
12 MB/s on both of its USB ports. The supported peripherals
include memory sticks, modems, a printer, GPS, powered USB
hubs and a computer. These supported peripherals are
automatically identified when connected and the associated
commands and functions are made available in much the
same manner that you are accustomed to with your
computer.
The Micromate provides 10 days (15 day option available) of
uninterrupted monitoring with its internal battery and storage
of up to 1000 events (additional memory also available). It
supports Waveform, Waveform Manual, Histogram and
Histogram-Combo™ recording modes with zero dead time
between events. It also supports Instantel’s Auto Call Home™
and Vision™ programs for a total monitoring solution. The
recorded events can be copied directly to a USB memory stick
(no PC required) or automatically transferred from the unit in a remote location with a modem
back to the computer in your office.
The Micromate is built to last. The main unit comes with a fully sealed top panel. The non-
corrosive fully sealed industrial grade connectors are labeled and color coded for easy identification
and installation. Custom molded housings for the geophone and base unit are made of superior
impact polycarbonate. An optional protective “boot” provides the highest level of durability and
ruggedness available in Instantel’s product line. The operating temperature range is -40°C to 45°C
(-40°F to 113°F).
