SYNC Configuration
The IF-006 and a connected Layer N Smart Probe can be configured using Omega’s SYNC configuration software. To begin,
launch the SYNC configuration software on your PC or laptop and connect your Layer N IF-006 using a micro USB 2.0 cable.
Once your Layer N IF-006 and Smart Probe are connected to SYNC, you will immediately see readings appear on the SYNC
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
.
