End of Configuration, For Advanced Configuration

P15 = Threshold of the “Soft Start” Function Enter the threshold value, in °F or °C, for the automatic start of the "Soft Start" function (output power limit). The range of this setting is determined by the range of the sensor selected in P1 (i.e., if type J T/C °F is selected in P1, range is 0-999).

If the unit powers-up below the threshold value, the "Soft Start" function is enabled and limits the power output to "OLH" for "toL" minutes. “OLH” and “toL are setup in the Operator Mode.

P16 = Not used

P17 = Not used

P18 = User Defined Security Code

0 = Security lock disabled (all Operator Mode parameters may be adjusted)

1 = Security lock enabled (only setpoints may be adjusted) From 2 to 499 = SP parameter may be modified and

other Operator Mode parameters may be accessed.

From 500 to 999 = SP, A1 and A2 parameters may be modified and other Operator Mode parameters may be accessed.

•When configuration is completed, the instrument shows " -.-.-. " on both displays.

End of Configuration

•Push the FUNC pushbutton. The instrument will return to the beginning of the configuration procedure.

For Advanced Configuration

•Push the ▲ or ▼ pushbutton and set the “217” code on the upper display.

•Push FUNC. The following advanced configuration parameters, P19-P29 will be displayed.

P19 = Main Output Action Available only when P4 = H

r = Reverse (heating)

d = Direct (cooling)

Note: when P4 = HC, this parameter is forced to "r"

P21 = Alarm 1 Relay Action

This parameter is available only if P7 is different from 0 and P4 = H.

r= Reverse (relay de-energized in alarm condition) d = Direct (relay energized in alarm condition)
