Both modules can display temperature units of Fahrenheit,

Celsius, Kelvin, Rankine, and also support reading output in units

of ohms.
The electrical interface of the probe to the module incorporates

a Switchcraft TA4M type connector and requires an RTD with the

appropriate mating connector. The connector is available through

the supplier of your choice.
Setting up the PTE-2 for an RTD Temperature Measurement
Insert the appropriate XXX-RT Quick-Select RTD Interface

Module.
Connect the desired RTD probe to the Switchcraft connector on

the XXX-RT module.

Note: RTD probes can be connected using two, three or four wire

configurations. Use of four wire configuration is recommended for

optimum accuracy. RTD probes provided by this manufacturer are

of the four wire configuration.
To select RTD probe characteristics
Install an RTD Quick-Select Module and Probe in the HHC

Base Unit.
