Details
This attribute is only valid when:
• The function is set to temperature.
• The transducer type is set to 3 or 4-wire RTD.
• The RTD type is set to user-defined.
Example
dmm.measure.func = dmm.FUNC_TEMPERATURE
dmm.measure.transducer = dmm.TRANS_THREERTD
dmm.measure.threertd = dmm.RTD_USER
dmm.measure.rtdalpha = .00385
Set the measure function to temperature.
Set the transducer type to 3-wire RTD.
Set the RTD type to User.
Set the alpha RTD value to 0.00385.
