Response message: Reference temperature
Description This command is used to specify the simulated reference temperature. The temperature value
depends on which temperature scale is currently selected (°C, °F or K). Typically, 0° or 23°C is
used as the simulated reference temperature.
The :ACQuire command is then used to store the simulated reference temperature.
Programming example 10 OUTPUT 716; “:unit:temp c”
20 OUTPUT 716; “:temp:rjun1:sim 0; sim?”
30 ENTER 716; A$
40 PRINT A$
50 END
Line 10 Selects °C temperature scale.
Line 20 Two commands in this program message; the first programs reference junction #1 for
a 0°C simulated reference temperature, and the second queries the simulated refer-
ence temperature.
Line 30 Addresses the Model 2001 to talk.
Line 40 Displays the simulated reference temperature (0)
