RTD conditioning in rslogix5000

very simple question:
I have an RTD input card (1756-IR6I) on a ControlLogix5000 chassis. I have several temperature sensors connected, the input range = 1-487 ohms.
what kind of analog conditioning code do I use, to translate these incoming ohms (raw data) to temperature values that I can use in my program?
I'm coding in Ladder Logic.
I just don't know what the raw data looks like, or what my analog conditioning should look like.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks!

The card will do that for you if you select the sensor type you have. See manual below, chapter 6

thats great. So as long as I configure the Configuration window correctly with the correct Engineering (High and Low) values, I can refer to the Channel.Data in my program, and that Data will be in whatever Temperature units I've chosen. Right?
Thanks!

Right. Post the program ( zip it first) if it does not work out for you.
