In this sub-section, we deal with the range of thermocouple simulation facilities, in a
concise way. For those who require more detailed instructions for manipulating the front
panel controls, the DC Voltage function was used as an example for the general
familiarization tutorials in Section 3, and this may provide an introduction to the function.
