6: Hardware Data Sheets and Instructions
6. Locate the port on the module that is connected to the thermistor in use.
Note
The RS-232 module can support up to four thermistors, and each port on the module is labeled.
7. Next to D5xx1, select between 0 and 3. (If you only have one thermistor, select 0.)
8. Enable the Chart function to view a chart of the temperature values.

FOXY-TK1 K-type Omega Thermocouple
A thermocouple consists of two dissimilar metals bonded to each other, typically by welding. The
bimetallic junction develops a small voltage that varies with temperature. A thermocouple also provides
accurate and consistent measurements and operates over a wide temperature range. The FOXY-TK1
Thermocouple from Omega is an electrode that can monitor temperatures from -150
° C to 220° C. It is
smaller and more flexible than the thermistor. The thermocouple must be connected to the FOXY-T-
MOD-K, which is an RS-232 module that interfaces the thermocouple to your PC. The FOXY-T-MOD-K
can support up to four thermocouples. The software can then apply algorithms to the readings to correct
for temperature fluctuations.
Application Tips
• Immerse the FOXY-TK1 to its cap.
• Use detergents to clean the FOXY-TK1.
