Operators Manual
TC_OFFSET
(Thermocouple Temperature Measurement Offset command) Adds a temperature offset
to thermocouple measurements (±500 °C). This command does not apply to
thermocouple sourcing.
Parameters: <value> CEL
Example:
Add a temperature offset of +10 °C to the thermocouple measurements.
TC_OFFSET?
(Thermocouple Temperature Measurement Offset query) Shows the temperature offset
used for thermocouple measurements (±500 °C).
Responses:
Example:
Shows 10 Celsius when a temperature offset of +10 °C has been added to the
thermocouple measurements.
TC_OTCD
(Thermocouple Open Detection command) Activates or deactivates the open
thermocouple detection circuit in thermocouple measurement mode. When set, the
Calibrator keeps open thermocouple detection circuit setting until power off or reset.
Parameters: ON
Example:
Activate the open thermocouple detection circuit. If an open thermocouple is detected,
this condition is shown on the front panel.
TC_OTCD?
(Thermocouple Open Detection query) Shows the status of the open thermocouple
detection circuit in thermocouple measurement mode.
Responses:
Example:
Shows ON when the open thermocouple detection circuit is activated.
