RTD
inputs exceeding 849.8 degrees C for 100 Ohm platinum or 260.0
degrees C for 120 Ohm nickel and 10 Ohm copper will cause the overrange
bit to be set. A maximum temperature of 849.9 degrees C for 100 Ohm
platinum or 260.1 degrees C for 120 Ohm nickel and 10 Ohm copper will be
returned for any positive overrange input.
Similarly an input below –199.8 degrees C for 100 Ohm platinum or –79.8
degrees C for 120 Ohm nickel or –100 degrees C for 10 Ohm copper will
cause the underrange bit to be set.
NOTE:
The SIMA
TIC 505–2557 uses the least significant bit (16) to indicate
an open RTD. The value of this bit is set to 1 when this condition occurs.
