1.6.1 Using Input Mode
Input mode is used to check or test the outputs of a sensor in a working furnace. The sensor
should be at or above its minimum temperature range 1100°F (600°C). Disconnect the sensor
from the monitoring or control system and connect the PROBE BUDDY to the TC and mV
signal connections from the sensor.
If you are using the cable set with alligator clips, there will be a cold junction error introduced to
the temperature measurement, but the intention here is to confirm operation of the TC and
confirm the process value.
Output Mode
The output function has been selected with the calculated oxygen
display for the selected thermocouple and millivolt outputs.
Pressing the TC/mV key cycles between the TC/mV output
values. The
