Service Port

You can connect to the service port on the GMW90 series transmitters

using a computer or an MI70 indicator. The MI70 indicator is the hand-

held display device that is included with, for example, the Vaisala

CARBOCAP

®

Hand-Held Carbon Dioxide Meter GM70.

CAUTION

The service port is not galvanically isolated from the rest of the

transmitter electronics. Connect only equipment with a floating power

supply (not grounded) to the service port. If you connect a device that is

grounded to a different potential than the transmitter’s power supply, you

will affect the accuracy of the transmitter’s analog outputs. You may

even affect the transmitter’s functionality or cause damage to the

transmitter.

Connecting With an MI70 Indicator

When connecting using an MI70 indicator, use the connection cable for

GM70 hand-held meter (Vaisala order code 219980). The following

functionality is available when using the MI70:

- Standard MI70 functions such as viewing, logging, and graphs of

measurement results.

- Calibration and adjustment fuctions for the transmitter. For more

information, see section Adjustment Using a Hand-Held Meter on

page 67.

- Setting of the pressure compensation value for carbon dioxide and

humidity measurement (Environment menu in the MI70).
