5. Navodila za uporabo
The ETC-112000 features a digital display and a keypad for easy operation. When not in programming mode, the display shows the current sensor temperature. Annunciators on the LCD indicate when the relay is active.
5.1. Display Readout
The primary display shows the real-time temperature measured by the sensor. Look for indicators on the display that signal the status of the control relay (e.g., heating or cooling active).
5.2. Funkcije tipkovnice
The keypad allows access to programming parameters. Typically, there are buttons for navigating menus, increasing/decreasing values, and confirming selections. Refer to the specific button labels on your unit for exact functions.
6. Nastavitve programiranja
To adjust the control's operational parameters, use the keypad to enter programming mode. The ETC-112000 allows adjustment of the setpoint temperature, differential, and mode of operation (heating or cooling).
6.1. Setting Temperature Setpoint
- Enter programming mode (consult your unit's specific button sequence, often a 'SET' or 'PROG' button).
- Navigate to the setpoint temperature parameter.
- Adjust the value using the up/down arrows. The range is 30 to 220 Degrees F.
- Potrdite nastavitev.
6.2. Setting Differential
- In programming mode, navigate to the differential parameter.
- Adjust the value using the up/down arrows. The range is 1 to 30 Degrees F.
- Confirm the setting. The differential prevents rapid cycling of the controlled device.
6.3. Selecting Mode of Operation (Heating or Cooling)
- Access the mode selection parameter in programming mode.
- Choose between 'Heating' or 'Cooling' based on your application.
- Potrdite svojo izbiro.
6.4. Keyword Lockout Switch
To prevent unauthorized changes to settings, the ETC-112000 includes a keyword lockout switch located inside the enclosure. Activating this switch disables the keypad functions. To enable keypad access, deactivate the switch.
