6.2 Setting the Temperature
Procedure
Setting the Temperature
Turn the
output setting
dial to set the temperature
.
The display shows the specified temperature.
Setting the Polarity
Flip the
POLARITY
switch up or down to set the polarity.
Example of setting 100°C
Unit
Use each output setting dial to set the corresponding digit value,
shown by the frames.
Carrying over and borrowing occurs automatically within the
selectable range.

Explanation
Selectable Range
The selectable range and resolution of each thermocouple and RTD are as shown below. For detailed
specifications, see section 14.1.
You can change the output setting and polarity even while the output is on. However, if the output
setting goes outside the selectable range when you change the polarity, the output turns off, and the
output setting and polarity displays blink.
