4-3 Setting the Input Type
The Digital Controller supports four input types: resistance thermometer, thermocouple, infrared tem-
perature sensor, and analog inputs. Set the input type that matches the sensor that is used.
Changes that are made with key operations are applied when the O or M Key is pressed. They
are also applied if you do nothing for 3 seconds or longer.
