PT100 Reads 2000C With PanelDue7 Plugged In Via 10 Pin Cable

@Phaedrux - we did follow that page for setup, but I did not see the two to four wire conversion for the daughter board. I’ll try that tomorrow and report back. Thanks for the tip!

It sounds to me that there is a short between the SPI signals on the PanelDue. Is it an integrated PanelDue, or a separate controller and display?
Check for solder bridges between the pins of the ribbon cable connector on the back of the circuit board of the PanelDue.

PanelDue
Thanks for the reply @dc42 and @Phaedrux .
Looks like the problem is solved - must be a short on the PanelDue7i screen. I took another one from inventory and swapped them out - everything is working fine. Thank you both for your suggestions!
@dc42 - Is there anything we can do to fix the one screen we have? Or do we need to write it off?
Thanks!

Did you check for shorts between pins on the underside of the 7i PCB where the ribbon cable connector is soldered to it? Also check for shorts between the pins of the SD card socket.

I can't see anything obvious. How long is your ribbon cable?
-
I couldn’t see anything either - glad I’m not going crazy! Ha.
It is 350mm using 26awg ribbon cable we buy from 3M. We make the cables in house.
I tried another (third) screen and that one worked too, just not sure why the first one won’t work with the PT100.

Somewhere on that screen there is a short between the SPI signal conductors between the ribbon cable socket and the SD card, or to ground. I suggest you ask your supplier for a replacement.

Will do - thanks @dc42!
