10 Ohm Copper (linear) : Temperature range (-20.00 to +160.00 C)

for linear = 0.0385 Ohm/C.
100 Ohm Platinum (DIN) : Temperature range (-200.00 to +850.00 C)
resistance range (18.49 to 390.26) )
for European curve alpha = 0.00385 Ohm/C.

2 point programmable linear curve (3 wire
hookup only).
*wr234help
2 Wire : The lead resistance of both leads will add to the RTD
resistance and give you an error EXAMPLE: 10 ohm lead
restance implies 10/.385 = 26 degrees C error with a
100 ohm RTD.
3 Wire : When using a bridge the third wire acts as a sense lead.
The other two wires will cancel because each is in an
opposite leg of the bridge (provided they are the same
length).
4 Wire : Use of a digital voltmeter with a current source replaces
the other 3 bridge bridge completion resistors with one
referance resistor and makes the RTD insensitive to the
length of the lead wires.
*inldhelp
Input Lead Resistance : See owners manual for complete details.
*ratehp

readings/sec. (less noise on the more sensitive inputs).

*dpefhelp
Decimal Effect : An "Active" decimal point change will increase
or decrease the instruments display resolution

move the location of the decimal point.
EXAMPLE : 001.231 -move decimal one position to
the left and display will read 00.1231.

the parmeters you have programed in.
*sbrwhelp
Single read/write data or
Block read/write data : This allows you to first read the data currently
programmed into the MICROPROCESSOR or EEPROM,
change it, and then write the changes back to
them. This can be done in two different ways.
" Single read/write data " will operate on each
individual menu item, whereas, " Block read/
write data " does the entire menu page.
Note : In the " Block read/write data " mode
changes will only be implemented as a block
when you leave than menu.
*spwrhelp

Communication's serial port : Specify communication serial port number
( 1 or 2 ) you want to communicate with the
meter. Press "F2" for choices.
*nothelp
Please refer to the Owners manual for more information or
contact NEWPORT Electronics, INC.
*analhelp
