General / Operating Specifications

	Temperature Resolution:		The temperature resolution a simulator can simulate or a calibrator can calibrate. On simulators, the user can select a temperature and the appropriate voltage or resistance output values that simulate a thermocouple or RTD.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Decades		The number of decades available in the decade box.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Temperature Coefficient		The temperature coefficient parameter measures the rate at which the nominal resistance value changes as a function of temperature. It is expressed in parts-per million per degree Celsius (ppm/C).
	Search Logic:		All matching products will have a value less than or equal to the specified value.
	Thermocouple / RTD Types:
	Your choices are...
	K Type		K type thermocouples can be simulated.
	J Type		J type thermocouples can be simulated.
	E Type		E type thermocouple can be simulated.
	T Type		T type thermocouple can be simulated.
	Platinum RTD		Platinum RTDs can be simulated.
	Copper RTD		Copper RTDs can be simulated.
	Nickel RTD		Nickel RTDs can be simulated.
	Specialty / Other		Other specialty, proprietary or unlisted thermocouples, RTDs or temperature sensors can be simulated.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.

Resistance Specifications

	Resistance Range		The resistance range of the resistor.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Resistance Resolution (per Step)		Resolution is the digital value represented by one bit in the display in a digital measure. For example, a decade box where one bit on the display represents 10 ohms as a resolution of 10 ohms (also, ohms/step or least significant digit <LSD>).
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Resistance Accuracy		The resistance accuracy or tolerance of the resistor.
	Search Logic:		All matching products will have a value less than or equal to the specified value.

Voltage Specifications

	Voltage Range (Output)		The maximum output voltage of the voltage source.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Voltage Resolution (per Step)		Resolution is the digital value represented by one bit in the display in a digital measure.  For example, a decade box where one bit on the display represents 10 amps has a resolution of 10 amps (also, amps/step or least significant digit <LSD>).
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Voltage Accuracy		The voltage accuracy or tolerance of the voltage or current source.
	Search Logic:		All matching products will have a value less than or equal to the specified value.

Features

	Operating Temperature		This is the full-required range of ambient operating temperature.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Features
	Your choices are...
	NIST / National Lab Traceable		The standard's calibration can be traced to the National Institute of Technology Standards (NIST) or other national laboratory. The standard has been compared to a master standard that was checked against a NIST standard.
	Low Zero / Residual		The standard or decade has low values of zero, offset or residual impedance resistance, inductance or capacitance.
	Measurement / Calibrator		In addition to providing a standard reference value, the instrument can perform precision measurements (measures or reads) for testing or calibration.
	Computer Interface / Programmable		The decade box, voltage divider, or component has a computer interface option for programming, control, or data acquisition.
	Decade Box / Substituter		Decade boxes, decades or decade substituters provide highly accurate and digitally variable standard values of resistance, capacitance, inductance, or combinations of these electrical parameters for calibration and testing. Decade boxes usually consist of several components (e.g., resistors) within the same circuit. The standard resistance value is selected by varying of the number resistors in the series or parallel circuit.
	Rack Mount		The standard, decade box, or divider is designed or suitable for rack mounting.  Rack-mount units offer options for front and rear outputs.
	Resistance Reference		The unit is also provided as a resistance reference or standard highly accurate standard values of resistance for calibration and testing.
	Stand Alone / Bench		The standard, decade box, or divider is packaged in a case with binding posts.
	Variable (Continuously)		The standard or reference can provide a precise and continuously variable value such as a variable capacitor or potentiometer.
	Voltage Reference		The unit is also provide a voltage reference or standard highly accurate standard values of voltage for calibration and testing
	Other		Other proprietary, patented or unlisted features.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
