WLS-TC User's Guide Functional Details
16
To reduce the error, reduce the length of the thermocouple to lower its resistance, or lower the AWG of the wire
by using a wire with a larger diameter. With OTD disabled, a maximum of 30 nA of input leakage current is
injected into the thermocouple.
AC power supply
The external power supply is an AC-to-USB 2.5 W supply that is used to power the WLS-TC during remote
wireless operations (MCC p/n USB Power Adapter.)
External components
The WLS-TC has the following external components, as shown in Figure 5.
Screw terminals
USB connector
Status LEDs (Command, Wireless Power, Transmit, Receive, Received Signal Strength indicators)
LED Test button
Screw terminal pins 1 to 26
Screw terminal pins 27 to 52
Received Signal Strength (RSS) LEDs

Screw terminals
The device's four banks of screw terminals are for connecting thermocouples and digital I/O lines. These
terminals also provide ground and power output connections. Refer to the "Screw terminal pin out " section on
page 12 for screw terminal descriptions.
Caution! The two +5V terminals (pin 21 and pin 47) are isolated (500 VDC) from the USB +5V. Each +5V
terminal is an output. Do not connect to an external power supply or you may damage the WLS-
TC and possibly the computer.
