Measuring methods and measuring ranges of the SM 431; AI 8 x RTD x 16 Bit

Measuring methods
You can set the temperature measurement as the measuring method for the input channels.
Unused channels
For unused channels, set the "measuring method" parameter to "deactivated". This reduces
the module's cycle time.
Measuring ranges
Set the measuring ranges by means of the "Measuring range" parameter in STEP 7.
Table 5-70
Selected measuring method
RTD-3L: Thermal resistance
(linear, 3-conductor connec‐
tion)
(temperature measurement)
RTD-4L: Thermal resistance
(linear, 4-conductor connec‐
tion)
(temperature measurement)
Default
The default settings of the module in STEP 7 are "Thermal resistor (linear, 3-conductor
connection)" for the measuring method and "Pt 100 Standard" for the measuring range. You
can use this measuring method with this measuring range without configuring the SM 431; AI
8 x RTD x 16 Bit with STEP 7.
