Example 4:
Output Mode = ‘SP-Latch’, ‘On’ = 100°, ‘Off’ = 110°.
The output will go high (on) when the temperature
falls
from 101° to 100°, and stay high (regardless of any
temperature change) until manually turned off. Note that
– as Output Mode = ‘SP-Latch’ – the only meaning of
‘Off’ = 110° is to set the direction, as 110° > 100°.
Specifying ‘Off’ = 120° will give the same effect!

Common Settings
The following are common settings for all the channels:
Temperature Unit: °C / °F (view only)
The user may define system’s Temperature Unit.
This ‘Temperature Unit’ is actually a part of the ‘Card
Settings’ (section 3.2.2.1); it does not reside in the PC.
Though, for convenience's sake, the ‘Temperature Unit’ is
shown in the ‘TCIC-Monitor Settings’ display, but restricted
to ‘view only’.
Filter: Off/2/4/8/16/32/64/128/256
The Filter defines the filtering degree of the readings. A
higher
filter leads to more stable readings display, but slower
response to changes; a lower filter will give the opposite:
faster response to changes, but less stable readings display.
