T4PGF1 INSTRUCTION MANUAL Page 9 6.2. Temperature Controller Settings The average user need only adjust the temperature set point. The temperature controller has many other settings that have been set by the factory. All adjustments other than temperature set point can be protected to avoid making adjustments that might adversely affect the operation of the controller.
Inspect all cables for damage, wear or unsafe conditions. If you are not familiar with what is safe for cords and cables get someone who is. Think safety first. If any of the cables are not safe to use contact your maintenance department and/or Shaw Almex for repair or replacement instructions.
Auto Tune the controller as follows. An external means of checking the platen temperature is required. A portable temperature test meter with at least two leads is best to conduct the calibration tests. These may be purchased from Shaw-Almex. SHAW-ALMEX INDUSTRIES LIMITED...
