And
1. For example: if the display is:
+.1000000 V
2.
Press the
µ
key to reformat the display to:
+100000. µV
Direct Entry of Temperature Data
The temperature of the hot junction of the thermocouple system to be simulated
may be directly entered similarly to entering output voltage or current. The dif-
ference is that the display format is fixed. And although the multiplier may be
used numerically during the entry, the display format is unaffected.
For example: If
120mºC
is entered, then a temperature of
0.12ºC
will be se-
lected. The display format used for temperature simulations also includes infor-
mation regarding the thermocouple type.
Examples of the format used are:
+1000.00°C
R
and
+1000.00°F
R
In both cases, the selected thermocouple type is “R”
.
For details on the method
used to select the thermocouple type, cold junction compensation technique and
cold junction temperature, refer to
Thermocouple Simulation or Measurement
Set-Up
paragraph.
Reversing Polarity of the Present Output Level
As previously mentioned, the polarity of the present output level (or simulated
temperature) may be reversed by simply pressing the
+/-
key.
1. If the displayed output level is
:
+1.000000 V
2. Press
the
+/-
key to change the output level to:
-1.000000 V
And
1. If the displayed simulated temperature is:
+100.00ºC R
