3-6 Preliminary Operating Considerations
Effective Resolution
The effective resolution for an input channel depends upon the filter frequency
selected for that channel. The following table displays the effective resolution
for the various input types and filter frequencies:

(1) The digits following the RTD type represent the temperature coefficient of resistance (α), which is defined as
the resistance change per ohm per °C. For instance, Platinum 385 refers to a platinum RTD with α = 0.00385
ohms/ohm -°C or simply 0.00385 /°C.
