Title: Using multimeter to measure temperature
Post by: Lonn on September 08, 2021, 06:15:28 PM

Hi all, I am trying to dial in my settings and understand the actual temperatures for the various -50, -30 etc settings as I switch between PLA, etc.

I have a multimeter and found the JST-XH plugs. All went together well enough, but when I set the multimeter volts to AC I only get 0000. DC shows numbers, but they do not make sense when multiplied to 200 (as the manual states).

Should I be setting the multimeter differently?

I'm not an electrician, so I'm not certain of other multimeter settings - anyone have experience with this?

Thanks for your guidance

You need to set your multimeter to DC Volts. The temperature will then be the voltage multiplied by 200. This is detailed in the User Manual available at http://www.z-temp.co/usermanual_2016.pdf

Thanks Julia,
You always reply so promptly.
Not to pick nits, but the manual does not state DC volts.
Thanks for clarifying
