Thermocouple Measurement
You can use the NI PXI-2527 and the NI TB-2627 to measure
thermocouples. NI software can convert a thermocouple
voltage to the thermocouple temperature. For example code,
visit
ni.com/zone
, click the Example Code link in the
navigation bar, and enter
PXI-2527
in the Search field.
When measuring thermocouples, be sure to account for error
in your measurements. The total error in thermocouple
measurement is the sum of the system error (determined by the
thermal EMF of the NI PXI-2527 and the CJC temperature of
the NI TB-2627) and the thermocouple error (determined by
the type of thermocouple used).
*
To ensure the typical thermal EMF, power down all relays and avoid pulsing high currents near the channels you are measuring.
