8.10 Temperature Measurement with Thermocouple – Temp TC
Temperature measurement is performed with a type K thermo-
couple (accessory, not included), which is connected to the volt-
age input.
Set the rotary switch to “” or “Temp”.
Repeatedly press the Func softkey until the Temp TC measuring
function is displayed.
The reference temperature is measured via an internal reference
junction. It’s displayed as TINT, or it can be queried via “General
Setup” (see description below).
The “Setup for present measurement” menu can be used to
specify whether or not the internal reference junction temperature
or a manually entered temperature will be used (see below). If
“Manual” temperature is selected, T
MAN appears at the display.
Connect the sensor to the sockets with the measurement ca-
bles as shown.
Measurement is started immediately. The instrument displays
the measured temperature using the selected unit of measure.

Note
The internal reference temperature (temperature of the
internal reference junction) is measured by a temperature
sensor inside the instrument. This may be somewhat
higher or lower than room temperature as a result of inter-
nal heat-up, or moving from warmer to colder surround-
ings or vice versa.
