Select Connected Probes

1. Connect your probe to the Tube.

2. Click Probe and set-point configuration.

3. Click the Connected probes tab.

4. Select the appropriate probe name from the drop down menu, and enter the correct

device address as set in Win-Situ 5.

If you have a Tube with a barometric sensor installed inside it,
Probe 1 will automatically be listed as "Barometer" and the
address will be listed at 100. Do not change this setting.

5. Click Write probes and set-points.

6. Close the window.

Select Probe Parameters for Alarming

1. Click Probe and set-point configuration.

2. Click the Parameters monitoring tab.

3. Select the connected probe from the drop-down menu, and then select a parameter

to monitor. Tube units monitor up to eight total parameters from the connected
probe.

4. Enter the minimum and maximum values to trigger warnings and alarms. If a

parameter is measured outside the Warning levels, the measurement is stored in
the log memory even if the Tube is not designated to save that reading. If a
parameter is outside the Alarm levels, the reading is stored and an alarm message
is sent (if the corresponding alarm has been enabled and configured).

Use the same units for Warning and Alarm levels as the probe
was set to use in Win-Situ 5.

5. Select the monitoring mode for Warnings/Alarms.

Absolute mode: Warning or Alarm occurs when a single reading is higher or lower
than the maximum or minimum level.

Incremental mode: Warning or Alarm occurs when the change between two
consecutive readings is greater than the Maximum value or less than the Minimum
value. The alarm threshold is a slope instead of a fixed value.

For additional information on alarms, see "Alarms - Overview" on page 40.

6. Click Write probes and set-points.

7. Close the window.
