    In order to detect faults on TraceMate-277V. It is also possible to reset the latched dormant systems with the TraceCheck feature, which alarms by momentarily switching S11 towards its ON turns on the heaters for several seconds every 24 hours, position ( refer to Figure 2.1 ) even if the TraceMate-...
  • Page 11 TRACE MATE-277V Chapter 4 Operation Heater Setpoint: If the jumper on JP1 is at SP position, the Setpoint Number generated by S1-9 is interpreted as the heater setpoint. Whether the setpoint is in °C or °F depends on the position of S10 ( refer to Figure 2.1 ). The factory default value is 20°C.

    This is a tedious task because the controls are often high off the ground in inaccessible areas. Since the TraceMate-277V control uses an RTD, it can be mounted in a convenient ground level location near other controls for easy access. Indicator lights for HEATER ON and POWER indicate the system status.
