Hey all,
I am working on a project that is using LabVIEW and FieldPoint 2015 series to collect thermocouple data using type K thermocouples and FP-TC-120 modules. I didn't write the LabVIEW code or configure the modules and everything was working fine. One day I was trying to fit the modules into a new space and I think I might have reset the ethernet controller module and the thermocouples stopped started reading 1~38C at room temp. I messed with some settings in MAX and FieldPoint Explorer (I don't think I actually changed anything) and I got the thermocouples to read ~40C. This happens on all channels on all FP-TC-120 modules we have and these abrupt changes in readings happen on all channels simultaneously. I have checked the thermocouples with an external reader and they are all functioning properly and the values read through LabVIEW values that change slightly when I heat or cool the thermocouple which leads me to think its a configuration problem. At this point, I have no idea what could have caused this and any help is greatly appreciated
