Temperature
This section describes how to configure the selected channel for temperature measurements from the
front panel. Temperature measurements require a temperature transducer probe. The supported probes
are as below:
Thermocouple
2-wire or 4-wire thermistor
2-wire or 4-wire RTD
Thermocouple
1.
Connect a thermocouple to the module's screw terminals.
2. Press [Channel] > Measure, and select TEMP from the selection menu.
3. Press the Units softkey to specify the temperature measurement units as °C (Celsius), °F (Fahrenheit),
