Operation AC Power Inlet: The customer connects the power cord to the AC Power Input. As a safety precaution, the power cord cannot be connected if the fuse compartment is open. Refer to Section 5.3 for information on fuse replacement. Fuses: The fuses are replaceable by removing the fuse cap with a screwdriver.
Operations setpoint variable is the desired temperature the user has set. Setpoint temperature can be changed by depressing the “ ” and “ ” keys. Holding either of these keys for an extended period will cause the setpoint temperature to advance more quickly to a desired value.
Operation 1. Press the once. 2. Use the keys to select menu level. 3. Once the the desired menu appears, scroll through the parameters of that menu using the key. 4. Use the keys to adjust a given parameter. 5. Press to save settings and exit programming mode.
Operations Target Cavity Temperature Transition Table The BB705 heat-up and cool-down characteristics are illustrated in the following table. The table illustrates the approximate time required to make a transition from one heater cavity temperature to another. First, determine the current heater cavity temperature and go to the corresponding row.
RS232 Communications Section 4 - RS232 Communications The controller and reference meter provides for bi-directional data transfer via a three conductor cable consisting of signal ground, receive input, and transmit output. It is recommended that less than fifty feet of shielded cable be used between the computer and this instrument.
Maintenance Section 5 - Maintenance Calibration This unit has been fine tuned at the factory and calibrated to give optimum performance of its full temperature range. It is recommended that the unit be returned annually for re-calibration. Cleaning CAUTION: Remove all electrical connections and power before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Only suitably trained trained service persons should perform maintenance or cleaning on the BB705.
Troubleshooting Guide Section 7 - Troubleshooting Guide Problem Solution 1. Unit will not turn on. a. Check all electrical connections. b. Check rear panel fuses. c. Unit requires service, contact our customer service department. 2. Unit turns on but the target a.
Glossary of Terms Used in This Manual Section 8 - Glossary of Terms Used in This Manual Blackbody A theoretical object that radiates the maximum amount of energy at a given temperature, and absorbs all the energy incident upon it. Calibration The process of adjusting an instrument or compiling a deviation chart so that its reading can be correlated to the actual value being measured.
