"Copper-mode" is a non-compensated mode of operation during which
cold-junction compensation of inputs and outputs is disabled. This permits
the use of copper-wire interconnections between instruments, while avoid-
ing the time and expense of multiple thermocouple-cable hookups. At the
conclusion of calibration verification, cold-junction compensation is re-
enabled, and operation returns to "alloy-mode".
“Alloy-mode” refers to Thermocouple operations; for example, a Type-K
thermocouple is made up of Nickel/Chromium and Nickel/Aluminum alloys.
Referring to the OMEGA Calibrator(s) in TC operation, “Alloy-mode” means
in effect “other than Copper-mode.” In order to make accurate measure-
ments using a thermocouple device one must eliminate erroneous voltage
signals. In “Alloy-mode”, the OMEGA calibrator automatically calculates the
cold-junction compensation for the selected TC type, based on the value(s)
from the ITS-90 table. This feature enables the user to make accurate tem-
perature measurements without making manual calculations for error cor-
rections.
