Measuring Temperature Using Thermocouples (HP E1353A Module only)
Setup for Measuring Thermocouple Temperature using an External Multimeter
The thermocouple terminal module automatically configures the HP E1353A FET Multiplexer Module for thermocouple readings. The multimeter measures the resistance of a thermistor on the terminal module to provide a reference temperature. This reference temperature is used to compensate for the change in temperature between the thermocouple (desired measurement) and the terminal temperature (see “Comments” later in this section).
