Input Type
Use this menu to configure the input sensor for each loop as one of these
input types:
•
Thermocouple types (J, K, T, S, R and B).
•
RTD. Three ranges: RTD1 (Platinum Class A), RTD2 (Platinum
Class B), and RTD3 (Nickel).
•
Linear and Pulse inputs.
•
Skip (an input type available for unused channels.) The scanning dis-
play doesn't show loops you've set to Skip.
The next table shows the MLS' input types and ranges.
