INTRODUCTION
The PRC 2000 systems are easy to operate and allow the operator the flexibility of using additional
features as desired. The "Operation" portion of this manual will familiarize the user with the features of the
system as received from the factory.
DEFINITIONS
Please read and become familiar with each of the following definitions. Each term is used repeatedly in
the following operational procedures to avoid any possible confusion as to the intent of any particular
instruction.
ACTIVE CHANNEL - Any channel with a connected handpiece.
AUTOMATIC POWER DOWN - Feature which turns off power to all three channels 90 minutes after all
Active Channels have entered the Automatic Setback Mode.
AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE SETBACK - System feature which, when enabled, will independently set
back each channel's SET TIP Temperature to 180°C (350°F) after a user selected period of handpiece
inactivity (10 to 90 minutes settable in 10 minute increments). This feature is enabled in the "CAL" Mode.
CALIBRATION (CAL) MODE - Mode of operation (indicated by "CAL" on the Digital Readout) in which the
operator can quickly and easily recalibrate the system to insure accuracy and peak performance.
CURRENT CHANNEL - The channel whose temperature information may be set and displayed on the
Digital Readout. The Current Channel is indicated by an illuminated LED next to its designation. The
Auxiliary LED is illuminated in conjunction with the appropriate channel LED if an Auxiliary Channel is the
Current Channel.
INACTIVE CHANNEL - Any channel without a connected handpiece.
SET TIP TEMPERATURE - Operator selected idle tip temperature entered into the system memory in Tip
Set Mode for handpiece/tip combination connected to Current Channel.
TEMPERATURE DISPLAY MODE - Normal Operating Mode in which the true operating tip temperature of
the handpiece/tip connected to the Current Channel is displayed on the Digital Readout.
TIP OFFSET CONSTANT - Specific value for a given handpiece/tip combination upon which the system
automatically calculates the correct Tip Temperature Offset at the entered Set Tip Temperature.
TIP TEMPERATURE OFFSET - Temperature value difference between the point in the handpiece heater
assembly at which temperature is sensed and the working end of the attached tip.
TIP OFFSET MODE - Mode of operation in which the Current Channel's TIP OFFSET CONSTANT value
can be viewed or altered. In this mode, the TIP OFFSET LED flashes and the stored value appears on the
Digital Readout.
TIP SET MODE - Mode of operation in which the Current Channel's Set Tip Temperature can be viewed or
altered. In this mode, the TIP SET LED flashes and the stored value appears on the Digital Readout.
OPERATING TIP TEMPERATURE - The true tip temperature at which the handpiece tip operates at any
given time. This temperature is displayed on the Digital Readout in Temperature Display Mode (normal
