Rotronic’s new software generation HW5 replaces the long-time and successful HW4 software. The HW5 will be available as Professional version for free (with no device limitations).
HW5 Professional will have the following functions:
• NFC interface: The all-new feature of the HW5 will be the possibility to configurate or calibrate the next device generation (e.g. HF5A) over the NFC interface.
• Downloading log data from the data loggers: the formats .xls, .csv and .log are available for log files. The .xls format can be opened with an editor or Excel. The data can also be exported in other formats.
• Instrument configuration: Depending on the instrument and probe, the following functions and settings can be changed: assignment and scaling of transmitter outputs, definition of alarm values (only on the device), relay switch points, adjustment and calibration of probes
• Analysis and calculation tool Psychrometric parameters: All Rotronic instruments measure relative humidity in %RH and temperature in °C/°F. These two values can be used to calculate other psychrometric values such as dew point, mixing ratio, enthalpy and wet bulb temperature. The calculation module in HW5 software uses WMO-verified formulas for these calculations and allows users to define their own parameters (e.g. mixing ratio & temperature) as input values in order to calculate the relative humidity from them. Other advanced options such as dew/frost point differentiation are also included.
