Noise Filtering
RTDs and their associated wiring may be installed in
electrically noisy environments. Noise filtering is required to
ensure that this noise does not affect the re ading of the low
level RTD signals. Jumper posts are located on the Mux to
select between 50 Hz or 60 Hz noise filtering.
Choose the frequency which represents the predominant
source of electrical noise in the RTD environment (e.g.
electrical motors). This configuration selection applies to all
16 RTD inputs. The jumper posts for noise filtering are
labeled “JP2”. Position the jumper on the posts as illustrated
in Figure 12 for noise filtering configuration.

RTD Data Format
The RTD input module provides linearized temperature data
to the processors in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. Jumper
posts are located on the Mux to select between degrees C or F.
