    CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION CHAPITRE 1 - INTRODUCTION 1. GENERAL This manual provides the information necessary for the installation and operation of an MST-2B unit. The information is presented as follows: • Introduction • Installation • User’s Guide • Troubleshooting 1.1 DESCRIPTION...
  • Page 6 MST-2B DESCRIPTION CONTINUED... The MST-2B keeps you informed of the output status as well as the actual ambient temperature by displaying them constantly. An alarm will warn you if the ambient temperature is not within the pre-established limits. The output is protected by a fuse and all programmed parameters are preserved, even when the MST-2B is not powered.
