Channels view parameters (thermocouple devices)

Parameter
Description
Channel
Indicates the channel to which the configuration applies.
Sensor Type
Specifies the sensor type. Valid values are:
  • mV
  • Type B
  • Type C
  • Type E
  • Type J
  • Type K
    (default)
  • Type N
  • Type R
  • Type S
  • Type T
This parameter is not available in Run mode.
Units
Specifies the temperature type. Valid values are:
  • (default)
This parameter is not available in Run mode and when
Sensor Type
is set to
mV
.
Digital Filter
Specifies the desired filter time constant from 0 ms through 10000 ms. The default is 0 ms.
This parameter is not available in Run mode.
Notch Filter
Specifies the desired filter frequency for the device.
Valid values are:
  • 50Hz
  • 60Hz
    (default)
  • 250Hz
  • 500Hz
This parameter is not available in Run mode.
High Engineering
Specifies the scaling high units from -32768 through 32767. The default is 13720.
Low Engineering
Specifies the scaling low units from -32768 through 32767. The default is -2700.
Enable CJ Compensation
Enables or disables the Cold Junction sensor by selecting or clearing the checkbox.
This parameter is not available when:
  • The device is in Run mode.
  • Cold Junction (CJ) Compensation Mode
    is set to
    Average Channels
    and no channels are selected for averaging.
  • Sensor Type
    is set to
    mV
    .
The Cold Junction Compensation source can be externally determined or manually entered. See the valid modes in Cold Junction Compensation modes.
CJ Compensation Offset
Determines the value added to the cold junction input during the temperature calculation. Cold junction offset compensates for the inaccuracies of the Cold Junction sensor.
Valid values are from 0.00 ℃ through 70.00 ℃. The default is 0.00 ℃.
This parameter is not available when:
  • The device is in Run mode.
  • Enable CJ Compensation
    is selected.
  • Sensor Type
    is set to
    mV
    .
Cold Junction (CJ) Compensation Mode
Specifies the code junction mode.
Valid values are:
  • Average Channels
    (default)
  • Independent Channels
This parameter is not available in Run mode.
Select Channels for Averaging
Specifies the channel for averaging.
This parameter is not available in Run mode and when
Cold Junction (CJ) Compensation Mode
is set to
Independent Channels
.
