To set up the Omega UWTC Series for process temperature measurement instead of ambient temperature:

1. Install the TC Central software on your computer.
2. Install the USB drivers by connecting the UWTC receiver to your PC using the provided USB cable.
3. Configure the display box:
- Enter a reference name in the “Description” field.
- Assign an address number that matches the corresponding connector/transmitter.
4. Ensure the thermocouple or RTD sensor is connected properly to measure the process temperature.
5. The process temperature will be shown in the “Process” field, which reflects the actual measurement from the sensor.
6. Use the “Options” button to access and adjust channel configuration if needed.

Make sure the sensor is positioned to measure the desired process temperature, not the ambient temperature inside the transmitter.
