Connecting Thermocouples
Connect thermocouples to your millisKanner by using miniature thermocouple plugs that
plug into the sockets below the binding posts for that channel. Copper miniature
thermocouple plugs should be used if you intend to use an ice point reference or
external reference junction compensation. If you intend to use internal reference junction
compensation, fit a plug of the same type as the thermocouple. As with all thermocouple
systems, the most accurate thermocouple measurements are made with an ice point and
the least accurate measurements are made with the internal reference junction
compensation.
If the thermocouple is provided with a screen (not common), it should be connected to
the top (green) binding post to minimise electrical noise picked up by the wires.

To use a thermocouple with an ice point (reference junction immersed in an ice point), fit
a copper miniature thermocouple connector to the thermocouple and connect this to the
socket below the binding posts. In the ‘Settings’ screen, set the Reference Junction to
“0°C”:
