The input type is selected by setting bits in the block transfer write
(BTW) file. Two different inputs can be selected. You can have 4
inputs set for one type, and 4 inputs set for another type; or you can
have all inputs the same. If you select different types of inputs, set bit
06 to 1. If you do not select 2 different input types, the module
defaults to all inputs set to those selected by bits 00 –02.

The temperature scale reported by the module is selected by setting
bit 10 in the configuration word. When bit 10 is set (1), the
temperature is reported in degrees Fahrenheit. When reset (0), the
temperature is reported in degrees Celsius.
The temperature bit 10 is ignored when the millivolt input type is
selected.
