2 or 6 heating zones. Structure Housing front: The pro CONTROL BASIC hot runner controller is operated from the housing front with 12 keys. Furthermore, the front contains all visualization elements. The setpoint and actual values of the individual zones are displayed via 7-segment displays.
The convenient operation of the pro CONTROL BASIC hot runner controller is carried out on the front panel (Figure 1 - pro CONTROL BASIC front panel) via 12 keys. The front also con- tains all visualization elements. The setpoints and actual values of the individual zones are displayed via 7-segment displays.
