Thermocouple inputs
using a precision
resistor
Refer to Figure 6-3 and wire the controller according to the procedure
given in Table 6-4.
Table 6-4 Set Up Wiring Procedure for Thermocouple Inputs Using
a Precision Resistor
Step Action
1
Connect the copper leads to the calibrator.
2
Disconnect the cold junction resistor.
3
Install a 500-ohm precision resistor across terminal 25 (R) and terminal
27 (–). See Figure 6-3.
4
Subtract the millivolt value for 77°F (25°C) from the zero and span value for
your range (see Table 6-1 for zero and span values) and use the adjusted
value when calibrating.
