XHC Wireless Pendant Manual 2.1.3 Thermocouple The board is standard designed to use 100K thermistors, these are sold by most 3D printer equipment suppliers. A thermocouple for the extruder temperature may give better temperature readings/control-performance for the extruder. This is a thermocouple board from reprapworld. It can be connected to the thermistor input after removal of R7.
