7.9 Peripheral Devices

AM25T (Dest, Reps, Range, AM25TChan, DiffChan, TCType, Tref, ClkPort,

ResPort, VxChan, RevDiff, SettlingTime, Integ, Mult, Offset)

This Instruction controls the AM25T Multiplexer.

Parameter
& Data Type

Enter

Dest

Variable

or Array

The Variable in which to store the results of the instruction. When Reps are used the
results are stored in an array with the variable name. An array must be dimensioned
to have elements for all the Reps.

Reps

The number of channels to measure on the AM25T. Enter 0 to just measure
Temperature.

Range

Numeric
Code

Voltage
Range

mV5000 0

± 5000 mV

mV1000 1

± 1000 mV

mV200 2

± 200 mV

mV50 3

± 50 mV

mV20 4

± 20 mV

AutoRange 5

mV20 - mV5000 Selects range (Sect. 3.1)

± 200 mV

± 50 mV
± 20 mV

The mV200C, mV50C, and
mV20C ranges pull the channel
into common mode range and
check for open input

Am25tChan
Constant

The starting input channel on the multiplexer.

DiffChan
Constant

The Differential channel that will be used to make the actual measurements
from the AM25T.

If the channel is entered as a negative number, all reps occur on

that channel.

TCType
Constant

The Thermocouple Type Code. Enter -1 to return voltage measurements.

Tref
Variable

The variable in which to store/read the AM25T reference temperature.

ClkPort
Constant

The Digital Output port number that will be used to clock the AM25T. One
clock port may be used with several AM25Ts.

ResPort
Constant

The Digital Output port number that will be used to enable and reset the
AM25T. Each AM25T must have it's own unique Reset line

VxChan
Constant

The Excitation Channel number that will be used to provide excitation for
the PRT reference temperature measurement. If 0 is entered for the
excitation channel, the temperature is not measured.

RevDiff

Code Value

Result

(Reversing requires twice as much time to complete)

Constant

False 0 Signal is measured with the high side referenced to the low

True

≠0

A second measurement is made after reversing the inputs to
cancel offsets
