Using Insight Software

DATAPAQ TP3

the temperature of the thermocouple cold junction is effectively the current

internal temperature of the logger.

The Communications Setup dialog for the TP3 logger, with Diagnostic section expanded.

For Bluetooth options, see p. 29.

It is advisable at this stage to set the frequency of the local electricity supply

within Insight. See p. 53.
