Hi everyone, im after some help with integrating a PT100 sensor into my alarm panel (its a pretty smart alarm panel, just not quite smart enough to take a 4-20mA reading and convert it to temperature)
Basically I have a PT100 probe, and a 4-20mA converter for it, what I need to do is accurately convert the 4-20mA signal back to a known resistance change so the alarm panel can read it, preferably with the following increments (these resistances are what the panel recognises as the temperature)
10C - .229vdc - 99ohms
14C - .310vdc - 131.4ohms
18C - .399vdc - 170ohms
22C - .489vdc - 210ohms
24C - .523vdc - 226.9ohms
27C - .579vdc - 254ohms
30C - .653vdc - 287.5ohm
33C - .704vdc - 313.2ohm
36C - .755vdc - 338ohm
38C - .806vdc - 363.6ohm
This is the probe, and the transmitter -

Thank you all for any help & ideas you might have.
