Operators Manual
If INT is returned, the reference temperature return is 0 unless you are in a thermocouple
mode of operation and the Calibrator is in Operate.
Responses:
Example:
Returns Internal, 29.88, Celsius, when the thermocouple reference is internal and at
29.88 C. (If the temperature return for the internal reference is 0 (0.00E+00), the
Calibrator is not in Operate, and/or the Calibrator is not in a thermocouple mode.)
TC_TYPE
(Thermocouple Type command) Sets the Thermocouple (TC) temperature sensor type.
The TC type is used when the output is set to a temperature value with the OUT command
and the temperature sensor type is set to TC with the TSENS_TYPE command. When the
thermocouple type is changed while simulating a temperature output, the temperature is
changed to 0 C. Once set, the Calibrator retains the TC type until power off or reset.
Parameters: B
Example:
Set the thermocouple type for simulating a temperature output to a J-type thermocouple.
TC_TYPE?
(Thermocouple Type query) Returns the Thermocouple (TC) temperature sensor type.
When the thermocouple type is changed while simulating a temperature output, the
temperature is changed to 0 C.
Responses:
Example:
6-42
INT, <value of reference temperature>,CEL (or FAR)
EXT, <value of reference temperature>,CEL (or FAR)
TC_REF? returns INT,2.988E+01,CEL
