Determining Module
Update Time

The module update time is defined as the time required for the module to
sample and convert the input signals. Module update time is dependent
on the number of input channels and the input filter selection.

The fastest update time occurs with the 500Hz filter enabled. The
following table shows update times for all filter frequencies.

Calculating Accuracy

Overall accuracy is determined from the combination of the module and
the thermocouple. The total error is the sum of the following:

• module accuracy and error due to temperature
• thermocouple error
• error due to thermocouple lead wire
• CJC error

Module and Temperature Error

The combined module error and error due to ambient temperature is
shown in the table below.
