Example 6: Thermocouple setting and measurement
Thermocouple is a common temperature sensor. Type, voltage and cold-side temperature are
required for thermocouple measurement.
The instrument can measure temperature of HI and LO terminals (cold-side), and calculate absolute
temperature of hot-side. Besides, only the relationship between thermocouple voltage and cold-side
temperature is need to be input according thermocouple type when you set the thermocouple sensor.
Operating Steps:
1. Please refer to “To Measure Temperature” in chapter 2 to know about the connection of Sensor.
