One heating zone is
not reaching setpoint
and another heater is

Setpoint is reached
but slightly off in
temperature.
Heater platen is
overheating.
Upper heater not

1. The mechanical Relay may be
stuck in the closed position (zone 1,
lower platen #1 labeled on this relay,
zone 2, left upper and zone 3, right
upper).
2. If you are receiving 12vdc on the
coil of the relay, the controller is
properly functioning.
Parallel lever not attached either in
the rear out on the upper heater
platen. Check to see if parallel leveler
is connected on both sides. The
retaining clip attached to pin may

and back to the controller.
Call (800) 624-6717 for
instructions.
Use an Ohm meter for a
continuity check must check at
the cold pins of the heater (where
the heater wire is brazed at
the cold pin. This will eliminate
any other failure before the
heater element validating the loss
off continuity at the source the
heater element.
