Hey guys I have a question. I just installed a 1746-NT4 with a supposed J thermocouple. I tried scaling it according to the manual but my readings were not linear. I have never used this module on a slc so i don't know if my issue is because the cart is bad or the TC -346° to 1400° is the suggested scaling but i have to put in 120 - 1382 to get it to read correctly any suggestions?

Post your .rss file and someone can take a look at your configuration

See pictures below for a typical configuration based on your description.

With the configuration below you will get a direct deg Fahrenheit data from the card.
Note different scaling choices if you want something other then a direct temperature read out.
