FRTD commands
:TYPE <name>
[:SENSe[1]]:TEMPerature:FRTD:TYPE <name> Specify FRTD parameters
Parameters <name> = PT100 Selects default parameters for the PT100
standard (ITS-90)
D100 Selects default parameters for the D100
standard (ITS-90)
F100 Selects default parameters for the F100 standard
(ITS-90)
PT3916 Selects default parameters for the PT3916
standard (IPTS-68)
PT385 Selects default parameters for the PT385
standard (IPTS-68)
USER Selects user-defined standards
Query :TYPE? Query type of FRTD sensor
Description This command is used to select the FRTD standard and other related factors.
When one of the parameters other than USER is selected, the multimeter
defaults to the following factors:
Type Alpha Beta Delta Ω at 0°C
PT100 0.003850 0.11100 1.50700 100Ω
D100 0.003920 0.10630 1.49710 100Ω
F100 0.003900 0.11000 1.49589 100Ω
PT385 0.003850 0.11100 1.50700 100Ω
PT3916 0.003916 0.11600 1.50594 100Ω
Changing alpha (see :ALPHa), beta (see :BETA), delta (see :DELTa), or Ω at
0°C (see :RZERo) automatically changes the type to USER (see :TYPE).
:RZERo <NRf>
[:SENSe[1]]:TEMPerature:FRTD:RZERo <NRf> Specify resistance at 0°C
Parameters <NRf> = 0 to 10,000 Specify FRTD resistance at 0°C
Query :RZERo? Query value of RZERo
Description This command is used to check and/or change the resistance at 0°C.
Remember that if you change the present resistance value, the FRTD TYPE
will change to USER.
