Temperature Measurement Configuration
• Remote Interface Operation: You can use the MEASure? or
CONFigure command to select the probe type and RTD type. For
example, the following statement configures channel 301 for 2-wire
measurements of an RTD with  = 0.00385 (use “85” to specify  =
0.00385 or “91” to specify  = 0.00391).
CONF:TEMP RTD,85,(@301)
You can also use the SENSe command to select the probe type, RTD
type, and nominal resistance. For example, the following statement
configures channel 103 for 4-wire measurements of an RTD with
 = 0.00391 (channel 103 is automatically paired with channel 113 for
the 4-wire measurement).
SENS:TEMP:TRAN:FRTD:TYPE 91,(@103)
The following statement sets the nominal resistance (R
0
) to 1000 on
channel 103.
SENS:TEMP:TRAN:FRTD:RES 1000,(@103)
