Title: Rigol DM3058e how do you select the thermocouple type?
Post by: BlueBill on May 05, 2016, 03:00:35 am

I've watched this DM3068 youtube review where around the 34 minute mark it shows different thermocouple types being selected. I can't seem to replicate this on my DM3058e.

If you look at this side-by-side view of specs, and scrool down to temperature. The DM3058E does not seem to measure temperature;

It works for J,B,E,N,R,S and K-type TC, using the ITS90 reference tables. it also caters for PT100 and PT385 sensors.

Simple 4 button push for a K type TC:
Sensor - Load - File1 KITS90 - Read
