Resistance thermometer are sensors used to measure temperature by correlating the resistance of the RTD element with temperature. This software implements a large amount of the various profiles needed to perform computation on these sensors.
- Select sensor from the dropdown
- Input either temperature (in Celsius) or resistance (in Ohm), resolve the other value.
- Switch the dropdown to "Resolve RTD" to use temperature and resistance to resolve an appropriate sensor.
