CONTROL PANEL OVERVIEW
Figure 1: Control Panel
Over Temperature Limit Control (OTL)
The Set Over Temperature dial sets the temperature limit at which the incubator cuts off heating in
the incubation chamber. The red Over Temp Activated light illuminates when the OTL system is
rerouting power away from the heating elements. For more details, please see
the Over
Temperature Limit System
description in the Theory of Operations (page 19).
Power Switch
The power switch controls all power to each incubator and its systems. The green Power On light
should illuminate when the switch is in the I (on) position.
Temperature Control and Display
During normal operations, the display shows the current incubator air temperature, accurate to 0.1°C.
The Up and Down buttons are used to change display modes and then input either a new
temperature set point or a calibration adjustment. The display blinks continually while in its set point
or calibration adjustment modes, preceded by an "SP" for Set Point or "C O" for Calibration Offset.
The Heating indicator light illuminates when the incubator powers the chamber heating elements.
