3.1 TEMPERATURE CONTROL MICROPRO-
CESSOR SYSTEM
The temperature control Micro-Link 3 microprocessor
system (see Figure 3- 1) consists of a key pad, display
module, control module (controller) and interconnecting
wiring. The controller houses the temperature control
software and the DataCORDER Software. The
temperature control software functions to operate the
unit components as required to provide the desired
cargo temperature and humidity. The DataCORDER
software functions to record unit operating parameters

Coverage of the temperature control software begins
with paragraph 3.2. Coverage of the DataCORDER
software is provided in paragraph 3.6.
The key pad and display module serve to provide user
access and readouts for both of the controller functions,
temperature control and DataCORDER. The functions
are accessed by key pad selections and viewed on the
display module. The components are designed to
permit ease of installation and removal.
