Publication 1746-UM614B-EN-P - September 2007
The configuration word default settings are all zero. Next, we describe
how you set configuration bits of a channel configuration word to set
up the following channel parameters:
• Type of thermocouple or mV input
• Data format, such as engineering units, counts, or scaled for PID
• How the channel should respond to a detected open input
circuit
• Temperature units in °C or °F
• Whether the channel is enabled or disabled
