 2    Example: Read Temperature
 3    
 4    This example shows how to read temperature values in degrees from a temperature input module. 
 5    
 6    Temperature inputs are analog inputs that read data from a temperature sensor and convert it into a 
 7    temperature reading. These include thermistors, thermocouples and resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) 
 8    
 9    This example works with all P1000 Series:
10     - Temperature input modules such as P1-04NTC, P1-04RTD, and P1-04THM.
11    
12    The default ranges are:
13     - P1-04THM: J-Type
14     - P1-04RTD: Pt100
15     - P1-04NTC: 2252
16    
17    This example will print every channel's temperature to the serial monitor every second.
18    This can be tested by:
19     - Using an appropriate temperature probe for the module
20     - Shorting the positive and negative inputs of a THM module to read room temperature.
21     - Using a potentiometer to simulate thermistor/RTD signal on an NTC or RTD
22        module and using a temp. vs. resistance chart to verify values. 
23       
24    The reported temperature defaults to degrees Fahrenheit.
