The user-defined parameters for the Callendar-Van Dusen conversion are R0
(R
0
), ALPHA (α), DELTA (δ), and BETA (β). The defaults are R0: 100.0,
ALPHA: 0.00385055, DELTA: 1.4998, and BETA: 0.109 which are applicable
with DIN-43760 or IEC-751 type RTDs.
Some probes may be provided with A, B, and C coefficients for the
