Noise Filtering
RTDs and their associated wiring may be installed in 
electrically noisy environments. Noise filtering is required to 
ensure that this noise does not affect the reading of the low 
level RTD signals. Jumper posts are located on the Mux to 
select between 50 Hz or 60 Hz noise filtering. 
Choose the frequency which represents the predominant 
source of electrical noise in the RTD environment (e.g. 
electrical motors). This configuration selection applies to all 
16 RTD inputs. The jumper posts for noise filtering are 
labeled “JP2”. Position the jumper on the posts as illustrated 
in Figure 12 for noise filtering configuration.

RTD Data Format
The RTD input module provides linearized temperature data 
to the processors in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. Jumper 
posts are located on the Mux to select between degrees C or F.
