Can I measure temperature with the Keysight 34401A?

Most temperature sensors convert temperature to a corresponding resistance (thermistors and RTDs) or low-level dc voltag (thermocouples). While the Keysight 34401A can very accurately measure the raw output from a temperature sensor, it does not have the built-in conversion algorithms required to measure temperature directly.IntuiLink for Multimeters has the functionality to convert resistance readings for a 5k Thermistor or a Type 85 RTD to temperature. Alternatively, once the data has been imported into the computer, either using IntuiLink or another program, the equation for converting the voltage or resistance reading for the particular temperature sensor can be applied. Products similar to the 34401A that provide temperature measurements are the 34970A or the 34420A.
