How to Read HPGe Thermistor

Make sure detector high voltage is turned off

Unplug pre-amp power

Unscrew detector electronics housing (8 screws total)
Arrows pointing to screws on detector electronics housing
Slide electronics housing towards the crystal end of the detector
Slide the sectioned area in the direction of the arrow to expose the thermistor terminals
Turn multimeter to resistance (Ω) setting

Measure resistance across the white/black wires the exit the white nylon 4 pinned terminal  

Check resistance in tables below for corresponding detector temperature
