1771-IXE Module The 1771-IXE module is an 8-channel thermocouple input module.
The channels are configured in groups of four. The module supports
types E, J, K, T, R and S thermocouples.
The module can also be used as a millivolt input module. The range is
from -100 to 100 mV.
Module Configuration
When you add a 1771-IXE module to a rack, the 1771-IXE Module
dialog box displays.
To configure the 1771-IXE module, complete the following steps.
1. Select the thermocouple type for each of the two groups of
channels, either one of the supported thermocouple types or
millivolts.
2. Set the units of measurement, either degrees Fahrenheit or
Celsius.
If you have selected millivolts for the returned data, this entry is
ignored.
