Instruction 64: Paroscientific ‘T’ Series Processing
Instruction 64 processes measurements made on the Paroscientific ‘T’ Series
pressure transducer. The transducer outputs a temperature frequency and a
pressure frequency. The frequencies are measured using the Period Averaging
instruction (Instruction 27) which returns the period of the temperature and
pressure signals in microseconds. Instruction 64 converts period to temperature
and pressure according to the following relationships provided by Paroscientific.
Pressure (psi) = C * (1 - T

Parameter 1
- U(t), Tau and 14 coefficients provided by Paroscientific must be in
contiguous input locations starting at the location entered in parameter 1.
Parameter 2
- The results of Instruction 64: (temperature in
°
C, pressure in psi,
and the signature of the 14 coefficients) are stored in three contiguous input
locations starting at the location entered in parameter 2.
