3.10 Thermal Electromotive Force Function
The thermal electromotive force function generates voltages equivalent to the thermal electromotive forces
of eight types of thermocouples by specifying the temperature values. The thermal electromotive forces are
output from the DIVIDED OUT terminals.
Using this function helps easy calibration of measuring instruments that adopt these thermocouples.
The temperature of the reference junction can be set arbitrarily.
3.10.1 Setting Thermal Electromotive Force Function
This section describes the procedure of enabling the thermal electromotive force function and setting tem-
perature output values.
