5. Measuring Voltage

To measure voltage use the input terminals in the front of the
calibrator. Select the Volts function on one of the displays. The
calibrator can measure up to 30V.

Note: The display will indicate "OL" when the measured voltage
exceeds the nominal range of voltage measurement (30 V).

6. Measuring Temperature with an RTD

To measure temperature using an RTD probe you must select the
RTD function on one of the displays. Make sure the proper probe
type is selected. There are 4 probe types supported, P100-385,
P100-392, P100-JIS and CUSTOM. The standard probe has a 9"
insertion depth with a 3/16" diameter stainless steel sheath.

Note: The factory default type is PT100-385 so if the CONDEC 3030
is being used with the CONDEC Model LPT100A probe you do not
have to set the probe type. Simply plug the probe into the CONDEC
3030 and configure the display to read temperature.

Note: The display will indicate "OL" when the measured temperature
is outside the nominal measurement range of the RTD function
(below -40°C or above 105°C).

If a custom probe is being used, the entering of R0 and coefficients
is handled through the serial interface (see section 11).
