3. Select the temperature function by pressing the TEMP key. Close Channel 1 by press-
ing the CLOSE key and keying in 101.
4. Configure the Model 2700 temperature function for ˚C units and RTD temperature sen-
sor (α=0.00385) as follows:
a. Press SHIFT then SENSOR, and note the unit displays the temperature units:
UNITS: C.
b. Press ENTER, and note the unit displays the sensor type: SENS: TCOUPLE.
c. Using the cursor and range keys, set the display as follows: SENS: 4W-RTD.
