Description

Word 1

bits 00-02

Input type codes for inputs 1 thru 8 (or 1 thru 4 if bit 06 is set to 1).

Tells the module what type of input device you connected to the

module.

bit 06

When set to 0 bits 00-02 define input type for all channels.

When set to 1 bits 00-02 defines input type for channels 1-4,

and bit 03-05 defines input type for channels 5-8.

bit 07

Not used (set to 0)

bit 10

Temperature scale bit, when set, reports temperature in

o

F; when

reset, in

o

C. The module ignores this bit for millivolt inputs.
