II.7 Temperature Display
The DV-II
+
Pro displays the measured temperature when an RTD temperature probe is connected.
Temperature may be displayed in either ˚C (Centigrade) or ˚F (Fahrenheit) units, depending upon
selection from the Options menu. As received, the default temperature display will be in ˚C
(Centigrade) as shown in the Figure II-19:

If you turn on the DV-II
+
Pro with the temperature probe disconnected, or remove the temperature
probe at any point after power-up, the display will indicate “- - - -C”. The four “dashes” indicate
the absence of the probe. If you were displaying temperature in Fahrenheit units, the C would be
replaced by an F. Accuracy of temperature measurement for the DV-II+Pro is shown in Table 1.

Printing
The DV-II
+
Pro will print data to an attached Serial (RS232) or Parallel (centronics) printer. The
printer must be attached to the appropriate rear panel output connector. See Appendix H for
configuration and connection requirements.
Data may be printed in two ways:
1. Pressing the
key once (for less than three (3) seconds) will result in the printing of one
standard print line.
2. If the
key is pressed and held for more than three (3) seconds, the DV-II+Pro will then
begin continuous printer output at a print rate interval selected via the Options menu (see
Section IV.3.3). The display will show a flashing P in front of the % sign. See Figure II-20.
