Table 6.8 Characters for the Loop Name and
Input Units Parameters
Input Units
For a thermocouple or RTD input, choose the temperature
scale. For a process input, enter a three-character description
of the engineering units.
Values:
For a process input, see Table 6.8. For a thermocou-
ple or RTD input, ˚F or ˚C. When setting the units for a ther-
mocouple or RTD input through communications, you must
set the first character as a space (32), the second character as
the degree symbol (223) and the third character as “C” (67) or
“F” (70).
Default:
˚C for a thermocouple or RTD input, three spaces for
a process input

Calibration Offset
For a thermocouple or RTD input, enter the offset to correct
for signal inaccuracy. A positive value increases the reading
and a negative value decreases it. Use an independent sensor
or your own calibration equipment to find the offset for your
system.
Values:
See Table 6.9
