3.3.7 Resistance Temperature Device (RTD) Inputs on CPU/System

Controller Board

CPU/System Controller board connector TB6 provides connection to a
3-wire 100 ohm platinum bulb RTD (using the DIN 43760 curve). The
RTD connection enters the unit through the bottom of the enclosure.

Wire the RTD according to Table 3-9 and Figure 3-4 and Figure 3-5. In
this configuration, the return lead connects to the RTD- terminal and the
two junction leads (Sense and Excitation) connect to the RTD+ and
RTD EXC terminals.

Caution

Never ground the RTD cable shield at both ends or allow it to come in
contact with metallic/conductive conduit because multiple ground paths
can cause RTD input errors.
