dmm.thermocouple

This attribute indicates the thermocouple type.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Attribute (RW) Yes
Usage
value = dmm.thermocouple
dmm.thermocouple = value
value
Details
This attribute is only valid when dmm.func is set to "temperature". All other functions generate an
error and return nil when queried. An illegal parameter value error message is generated if the value
specified is not a supported thermocouple type value listed in the usage table.
The thermocouple attribute is only used when the transducer type is thermocouple. For all other
transducer types, the value is set but not used until the transducer type is set for thermocouple.
The thermocouple setting is saved with the dmm.func function setting, so if you use another function,
then return to "temperature", the thermocouple value you set previously is retained.
Example
dmm.func = "temperature"
dmm.transducer = dmm.TEMP_THERMOCOUPLE
dmm.thermocouple = dmm.THERMOCOUPLE_J
