DEFINITION:
Basic: sensor type used on each channel.
HOW TO MODIFY IT:
Select a new sensor. Press ENTER. With keys   select the
right sensor type and press ENTER
POSSIBLE VALUES:
T/C INT COMP: The sensor is a directly connected thermocouple and the
cold junction compensation of the recorder is used.
T/C EXT COMP: Thermocouple sensor is directly connected to a remote temperature
compensation box *.
* See parameter EXT COMP to configure temperature or analog channels (see page 4-
12) used to measure the external cold junction.
RTD: Sensor is a directly connected RTD or variable resistance device.
TR NL 0-5V: Sensor is a temperature transmitter signal range of 0-5V which is not
linear with temperature.
TR NL 1-5V: Sensor is a temperature transmitter signal range of 1-5V that is not linear
with temperature.
TR NL 0-20mA: Sensor is a temperature transmitter signal range of 0-20mA that is not
linear with temperature.
TR NL 4-20mA: Sensor is a temperature transmitter signal range of 4-20mA that is not
linear with temperature.
LINEAR: Sensor is a transmitter output that is linear with process variable.
SPECIAL: Special sensor connected. Must be specified by special order, or created
using PC application software.
NO ENTRY: No sensor connected or unused input.
SEE ALSO:
RANGE to select the required input range.
NOTE:
Changing the sensor type will automatically change RANGE, LOW
VALUE, HIGH VALUE into predefined values.
Which is dependent on:
1) The type of analog input board installed (linear or universal)
2) If the input type is a directly connected temperature sensor.
The access to all sensors is possible only with an universal input board.
T/C INT COMP and RTD sensors are not accessible with a linear input
board.
