How to Read HPGe Thermistor
Make sure detector high voltage is turned off
Unscrew detector electronics casing
Slide electronics casing towards the crystal end of the detector
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
