6.2.9 Setpoints 
The two Setpoints are deactivated by default (alarm mode). Activating and adjusting the Setpoints is 
accomplished  through  software.  Once  one  or  both  Setpoints  are  activated  the  relay  changes  state  as 
the current temperature passes the setpoint temperature. 
6.2.10 Deadband 
Deadband  is  a  zone  of  flexibility  around  the  Setpoint.  The  alarm  does  not  go  abnormal  until  the 
temperature exceeds the Setpoint value by the number of set deadband degrees. Thereafter, it does not 
go  normal  until  the  temperature  is  below  the  Setpoint  by  the  number  of  set  deadband  degrees.  The 
Deadband is factory preset to ± 2° C or F of Setpoint value. Adjusting to other values is accomplished 
through  software.  For  information  on  the  sensor's  communication  protocols,  see  section 
9 Programming 
Guide  on  page  39.  The  following  figure  is  an  example  of  the  Deadband  around  a 
Setpoint temperature of 960°C (1760°F).
