Chapter 3
The thermocouple terminal module automatically configures the HP
E1353A FET Multiplexer Module for thermocouple readings. The
multimeter measures the resistance of a thermistor on the terminal module
to provide a reference temperature. This reference temperature is used to
compensate for the change in temperature between the thermocouple
(desired measurement) and the terminal temperature (see "Comments" later
in this section).
Figure 3-7 shows how to set up channel 01 of a single module switchbox to
measure temperature using a thermocouple and an external multimeter.
