[SENSe:]TEMPerature:TRANsducer:THERmistor:TYPE

Syntax

[SENSe:]TEMPerature:TRANsducer:THERmistor:TYPE <type>[,(@<ch_list>)]

[SENSe:]TEMPerature:TRANsducer:THERmistor:TYPE? [(@<ch_list>)]

Description

This command selects the thermistor type for temperature measurements on the specified channels.

Used With:

  • 34901A   20 Channel Multiplexer (2/4-wire) Module
  • 34902A   16 Channel Multiplexer (2/4-wire) Module
  • 34908A   40 Channel Single-Ended Multiplexer Module

Parameters

Name Type Range of Values Default Value
<type> Discrete {2252|5000|10000} This is a required parameter.
<ch_list> Channel List

One or more channels, as shown:

(@310) - channel 10 on the module in slot 300.

(@305:310) - channels 05 through 10 on the module in slot 300.

(@202:207,209,302:308) - channels 02 through 07 and 09 on the module in slot 200 and channels 02 through 08 on the module in slot 300.

If you omit the optional <ch_list> parameter, this command applies to the currently defined scan list.

Remarks

  • The instrument supports 2.2 kΩ (YSI 44004 Series), 5 kΩ (YSI 44007 Series), and 10 kΩ (YSI 44006 Series) thermistors.
  • The instrument sets the thermistor type to "5000" after a Factory Reset (*RST command). An Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command) or Card Reset (SYSTem:CPON command) does not change the setting.

Return Format

The query returns 2252,5000 or 10000 for each channel in the list. Multiple values are separated by commas.

Examples

The following command sets the thermocouple type to 5000 for the channels shown.

TEMP:TRAN:THER:TYPE 5000,(@201,202,301)

 

The following query returns the thermocouple type for each of the following channels.

TEMP:TRAN:THER:TYPE? (@201:203,301:303)

Typical Response: 5000,5000,2252,5000,10000,2252
