Specifications: Ambient Temperature: 77°F/25°C +/-5° Operating Environment: 0 to 90% relative humidity Rating: 15 Amps Max. Total; 120VAC;50/60 Hz. 10 Amps Max. Total; 240VAC; 50/60Hz. Unpack the control and set it on the bench top where desired. The rubber adhesive feet hold the unit securely in place.
Control Sensor Proper placement of the sensor can eliminate many problems in the operation of the system. The probe should be placed so that it can detect any temperature change with little thermal lag. In a process that requires fairly constant heat output, the probe should be close to the heater.

Control mode operation Manual operation provides direct (time proportioned % time) control from -100% to 100%. A negative value is allowed only when Ot 1=Cool. Automatic operation provides sensory feedback ON/OFF or PID control. When the operation transfers from automatic to manual operation, the power level from automatic operation is retained and restored to the previous set point.
Screen 1 Screen 2 To start auto-tuning: 1. Set the set point value with the arrow keys to the desired temperature of operation. 2. Press the Advance key until the Aut prompt appears in the right display. 3. Change the parameter to YES (displayed in left portion of display) with the arrow keys. 4.

Auto-tune: Automatically tunes the parameters to fit the characteristics of your particular thermal system. Cold junction compensation: Electronic means to compensate for the effect temperature at the cold junction. Cycle time: The time necessary to complete a full On-through-Off period in a time proportioning control system. Derivative/Rate: Anticipatory action that senses the rate of change of the process, and compensates to minimize overshoot and undershoot.
