RTD_MEAS
IEEE-488
RS-232
Sequential
Overlapped
This command places the primary display in RTD measure mode.
Parameter:
where
CEL
display in degrees celsius
FAR
display in degrees fahrenheit
display in the last selected temperature unit
Response:
Example:
RTD_MEAS CEL
This example sets the 3001 to RTD measure mode, displaying in
degrees celsius.
RTD_TYPE
IEEE-488
RS-232
Sequential
Overlapped
This command sets the Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) sensor type for RTD
source and measure. Normally, before using the RTD_TYPE command to select the RTD
type, use the TSENS_TYPE command to select RTD mode, and afterwards set the output
temperature using the OUT command, if applicable. A change in temperature sensors
sets the output to 0 °C. Note that the SPRT can only be used to measure signals, not
source them.
Parameters:
where
PT385_100
100-ohm RTD, curve a=0.00385 ohms/ohm/°C
PT385_200
200-ohm RTD, curve a=0.00385 ohms/ohm/°C
PT385_500
500-ohm RTD, curve a=0.00385 ohms/ohm/°C
PT385_1000
1000-ohm RTD, curve a=0.00385 ohms/ohm/°C
PT392_100
100-ohm RTD, curve a=0.003926 ohms/ohm/°C
PTJIS_100
100-ohm RTD, curve a=0.003916 ohms/ohm/°C
CU10
10-ohm RTD, empirical curve
NI120
120-ohm RTD, empirical curve
YSI_400
YSI thermistor curve
OHMS_HIGH
4000 ohms range
OHMS_LOW
400 ohms range
SPRT
standard PRT with user defined error coefficients, only
available for measurement
USR_DEF
the curve number and ranges from 1 to 5, i.e.
USR_DEF2 for curve 2
Response:
Example:
RTD_TYPE PTJIS_100
This example sets the RTD sensor to a 100-ohm type, using the
PT3916 curve (a=0.003916 ohms/ohm/°C). The resistance of 100
ohms refers to the ice point characteristic, the resistance of the RTD at
0 °C (32 °F).
