TO SIMULATE A THERMOCOUPLE
Work through the thermocouple 
menu and make the selections as 
required.  Select the DIRECT mode 
to simulate any temperature within 
the range of the chosen 
thermocouple type.  Adjustment 
resolution is 0.1 degree.  For Cold 
Junction compensation 
considerations and different wiring methods read section "To simulate 
thermocouples" in this book.
TO SIMULATE A RTD 
The excitation current to source a resistance should be between 0.18 
and 5 mA.  Excitation currents may be intermittent as with some 
smart temperature transmitters.
RTD Simulation
Go through the RTD menu and make the selections as required. 
Select DIRECT mode to simulate any temperature within the range of 
the chosen RTD type.  Adjustment resolution is 0.1 or 0.01 degree 
depending on RTD type.  See the chapter “SPECIFICATIONS - 
TRX-II” for details.
Resistances representing temperatures are really simulated across 
the two terminals as shown.  Connecting a third or a fourth wire 
adapts the simulation to 3 or 4 wire inputs.
