3.0 Set Value Control

The default mode for the controller is “Normal” mode. In this mode, the

controller will try to maintain the temperature controlled by the Set Value

(green display). When the controller receives power, it will automatically go to

this mode. The controller will continue to heat or cool to maintain the set value

temperature until it is manually stopped. To change the Set Value, press the

up or down arrow button (see figure 4A) and the value in the green display will

change. The speed that the value in the display changes is a function of the

length of time the button is held down. The longer the button is held down, the

faster the display value will change.

4.0 Operational Modes

There are four modes of operation with this controller. These modes are

as follows:
1) FOP – Fixed Output Percentage

The Freeze-Thaw machine does not use this function.

2) nor – Normal

This mode, as stated in section 3.0, is the normal mode in which the

controller will maintain the set value temperature.

3) stby – Standby

This mode puts the controller on standby. The heating and cooling

functions of the machine will be shut off.

4) r.s – Ramp/Soak Recipe

This mode is for running a controlled temperature cycle for a finite number

of cycles. This is the mode used for freeze-thaw testing.
