E5CK Operating Parameters

The E5CK has several mode selections. Within each mode are numerous parameters that can be set. The setting is different for the temperature control unit and the dew point display.

Before you can access the several modes of operating parameters, you must change the security lock-out of the controller. The factory sets the security level to protect the parameters from being accidentally changed. Below is an explanation of the operating modes, how to change out the security level and the factory default settings.

Available E5CK Modes

Menu Display

Level 0 Mode

For normal operation. Execute AT auto-tuning, change to manual mode.

Level 1 Mode

For adjusting primary control parameters. Execute: Set alarm values; set the control period; set PID parameters.

Level 2 Mode

For adjusting secondary control parameters. The dehumidifying dryer uses E5CK default settings.
