Re : Re: How to calibrate a Vex thermistor setup with a Philips KTY84/130

[olivier66]

Hi,
I have a philips KTY84/130 temperature and I am trying to calibrate measurement for  Max
what kind of measurement should I use? I have tried to use the resistor acquisition type with a custom scale comming from the attached file and using an external power supply 5v trough a resistor of 1kohm but the measured value with this setup is giving me almost 69 degrees C and the sensor is only measuring ambiant temperature.
I have also tried to use Temperature Vex measurement with the same setup, and the A,B,C values comming from the attached datasheet file, it still gving me 60 degrees C.
I attached my MAX configuration file.

Thanks for help

Olivier
