interface.

Configuring A Smart Probe

Certain Layer N Smart Probes may need to be configured to read an external sensor. Smart Probes can be
configured while connected to an IF-006 unit. To configure a Layer N Smart probe that is connected to an IF-006
using SYNC, navigate to the Inputs configuration tab of the SYNC interface.
Depending on the type of Smart Probe connected, you will be presented a variety of configuration options. The
Type dropdown allows the user to select which sensor to use if multiple sensors are available (such as
Thermocouple or RTD on an SP-005) and should be the first thing to be configured. To ensure your Smart Probe is
providing data in the correct units, click the Device Range/Type dropdown in the SYNC interface and choose your
device type. The Device Range/Type is a secondary selection once the Type has been selected. For additional
configuration options associated with your specific Smart Probe, refer to the Smart Probe User Documentation for
your device.
Note: Some Layer N Smart Probes can provide data in different units, such as the SP-014 providing readings in mA
or mV. Ensure your Smart Probe is set to the correct Device Range/Type.
