Company recently purchased a USB-TEMP box. I configured the box using InstaCal with a single thermistor in input I1+ and I1- and entered the correct coefficients for this thermistor from the manufacturer (Vishay NTCLE213E3103FHB0). I used the test function to read the temperature and am reading values that do not make sense. I've confirmed the setup is correct with the Omega Technical support guy. I sent photos showing how I configured the box and attached the thermistor and there is no explanation as to why the readout temperature is incorrect. I replaced the thermistor and reconfigured the box for a thermocouple type T and it works fine. Is there anything else I should be looking at to try and make this work correctly. I’m only using A1,B1 & C1 for the coefficients since InstaCAL only provides three entries max. I should be reading room temperature of about 22.8C but I get -145.450317. Should I be doing something different with this setup or is this box defective?
