Thermocouple Type

Next, specify the type of Th ermocouple present on th e chan n el: J, K, T, E, S, R, B, N, G, C, D, or
Platinel II. The default is NONE. If this default is selected, the module will report inputs as
millivolts.

Note: If you selected Engineering Units of millivolts on the previous screen, the TC Type should
be NONE.
1. Use the F3 (toggle) key if you want to change the displayed thermocouple type.
2. Use the F4 (enter) key to save the selection.

Range Type

If None was configured for Thermocouple Type, specify the range for millivolt inputs. The number
displayed represents a +/- span of millivolts. For example, 19.5 represents +/-19.53 millivolts. The
choices are: unused, 19.5mV, 39mV, 78.125mV, 156.25mV, 312.5mV, and 625mV. The default is
625.

1. Use the F3 (toggle) key if you want to change the displayed thermocouple range.
2. Use the F4 (enter) key to save the selection and go on to the next item.
Note: If you selected Engineering Units of millivolts, be sure to configure alarm limits (see next
page) within the Range selected her e.
