7-3 Thermocouple Calibration
• Calibrate according to the type of thermocouple: thermocouple group 1 (input types 5, 7, 11, 12, 15,
19, and 20) and thermocouple group 2 (input types 6, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, 23, and 24).
• When calibrating, do not cover the bottom of the Digital Controller. Also, do not touch the input
terminals (terminals 5 and 6 on the E5CC, terminals 1 and 2 on the E5CC-U, terminals 23 and 24 on
the E5EC/E5AC, terminals 13 and 14 on the E5DC, or terminals 11 and 12 on the E5GC) or the
compensating conductors.
z Preparations
• Set the cold junction compensator designed for compensation of internal thermocouples to 0°C.
Make sure that internal thermocouples are disabled (i.e., that tips are open).
• In the above figure, STV indicates a standard DC current/voltage source.
• Use the compensating conductor designed for the selected thermocouple. When thermocouples R,
S, E, B, W, or PLII or an infrared temperature sensor is used, the cold junction compensator and the
compensating conductor can be substituted with the cold junction compensator and the
compensating conductor for thermocouple K.
