An identified pyrometer directly shows temperature information (numerically in this device overview win-
dow as well as in the control window, and graphically in the graph-tab).
Additionally the internal device temperature (DT) can be read-out.
This device overview window provides a measured value indication with basic measurement parameter
settings.
A separate control window (see 7.2 and 7.2.2) additionally provides all available meas-
urement-relevant functions and settings).
It is useful when switching to a different tab (e.g., in the graph representation).
INFO for settings on the device: a pyrometer connected to the software has blocked push
buttons. "KEY LOCK" appears when pressing a key.
Input boxes:
The emissivity must be taken into account during the measurement and adapted at the pyrometer
for the respective measuring material in order to obtain correct measured values (also see 6.3.1).
The setpoint for devices with PID controllers, see 7.2.4)
- Via the PID start button the control process can be started directly.
- The control parameters can be defined in the controller window (see 7.2.4).
Device settings are made here:
Via the device configuration basic device settings are made (see 7.2.3).
The recording function is used, as also in the graph window, to record the transferred meas-
ured value data for subsequent analysis to the hard disk (also see under 7.2.1 Information field).

The playback button opens the SensorTools viewer (see 7.3) to display the last measured and,
if necessary, the control values since the device was connected.
