	This is the simplest wiring setup for an RTD, but also the least accurate because the resistance of the leads are not taken into account. To connect a 2-wire RTD to the RTD Phidget, connect one wire to the RTD+ terminal, and the other to the RTD- terminal. Then connect the EXC+ terminal to the RTD+ terminal and the EXC- to the RTD- terminal with two short wires.

	In a three-wire RTD, the extra wire is added to measure the resistance of one of the leads. This calculation assumes that both leads have the same resistance. Your RTD should have two wires that share a color; connect one of these wires to the RTD- terminal and the other to the EXC- terminal. The differently colored wire connects to the RTD+ terminal. Then connect the EXC+ terminal to the RTD+ terminal with a short wire.		In a three-wire RTD, the extra wire is added to measure the resistance of one of the leads.

	A four-wire RTD is normally used in precision measurement, when the assumption that both leads have the same resistance is not accurate enough. Unfortunately the RTD Phidget does not support this particular feature of four-wire RTDs. It does support the use of four-wire RTDs using the same assumption as three-wire mode. To connect a four-wire RTD, simply connect one pair of same-colored wires to the RTD+ and EXC+ terminals, and the other pair to the RTD- and EXC- terminals.

			===About===
			The TMP1200 allows you to precisely measure temperature using RTDs, thermistors, and other resistance-based sensors. Measure temperature from your RTD in degrees Celsius by selecting the RTD type and the number of wires in the software. You can also read thermistors and other resistive sensors by using the resistance sensor object in your program. You'll receive the data in ohms and can convert to the desired unit by using the formula in your sensor's datasheet. You could even use it as a simple ohmmeter for resistances up to 19 kΩ.

			===Explore Your Phidget Channels Using The Control Panel===

			You can use your Control Panel to explore your Phidget's channels.

	~~{{ugResistanceInput}}~~		'''1.''' Open your Control Panel, and you will find the following channels:
