Mirus Installation

The Mirus app operates the H2 and H3 Classic GrainGage and runs on a Windows tablet. The H2 Classic GrainGage uses an EM sensor to detect the EM or M2.0 moisture content of the sample. The H3 Classic GrainGage can use a SCiO sensor to detect the SCiO constituent data, or an EM sensor to detect the EM or M2.0 moisture content of the sample.
