Hello Canuck Vic,
In order to configure your FP-TC-120, you can do this in MAX or from the Project Explorer window. Here are the steps to do either. If you are using LabVIEW 8.x or later, I would suggest to make these modifications inside the project instead of MAX since both of these locations have different configuration files.
MAX:
1.) Find your device under Remote System.
2.) Highlight the device and click on Find Devices on top of the Network Settings tab. (If you have already done this, please skip this step.
3.) Click the FP-TC-120 under FP-[controller module number] Bank section
4.) To the right, there are two tabs Device Configuration and Channel Configuration. Select Channel Configuration.
5.) Under Channel Attributes, you can change each channels thermocouple type. Here is a picture showing this window:
Project:
1.) Right-click FP-TC-120 under your Fieldpoint controller and select properties.
2.) The properties window will contain the same options as MAX has which can be seen above.
I hope this information helps you with this and if you have more questions about this, feel free to post.
