To distinguish between the Program and Special Program modes, look at the
menu items in the display.

CONTROLLER CLONING

Two of the Special Program Menu items—“Save Controller
Settings in Programmer” and “Load Programmer Settings
into Controller”—allow you to “clone” controllers. To do
this, simply program one controller to the desired settings,
save these settings in the programmer, and then load them
into other similar (same model number) controllers, thus
creating a family of controllers with identical settings.

The

key is used initially to access the Special Program mode, and once

you are within the Special Program mode, it is used to perform the desired tasks.
To adjust the contrast in the display window, for example, select “Contrast
Adjustment” by scrolling until this item is at the top of the screen, and then
press

to find out how to make the adjustment.

The Special Program Menu is presented at the end of this section.

In the

Special Diagnostics

mode, the controller’s diagnostic history file is

displayed. This file includes a list of all faults observed and recorded by the
controller since the history was last cleared. (

NOTE

: The maximum and minimum

temperatures recorded by the controller are included in the Test Menu.) Each
fault is listed in the diagnostic history file only once, regardless of the number of
times it occurred.

To access Special Diagnostics, first press the

continuing to hold the

the

mode.

key, when used within the Special Diagnostics mode, causes

additional information to be displayed about the selected item.

Program mode, select “Clear Diagnostic History,” and press the

key

for instructions. Clearing the diagnostic history file also resets the maximum/
minimum temperatures in the Test Menu.
