Description and Function of Each Part Control Panel ① ② ③ ④ ⑤ ① Main Indicator: Mainly displays measured temperature. ② Heater Lamp: Lights up when electric power is supplied to the heater. ③ Trouble Indicator: Blank in normal operation. Lights up when the device has a trouble. ④ ▼▲(Up/Down) Key Use these keys when you change the parameters. ⑤ Enter Key Use this key when you decide a modified parameter.
Operation Method Sequence of Operation Fixed Temperature Operation 1. Turn on the power. • The main indicator shows the current internal temperature. MEASURED TEMP • Fixed temperature operation is started with the target of the previously set temperature. When the power is turned on, the controller resets automatically to the condition immediately before the previous power-off. Changing Temperature Setting 1. Press the Enter key. ENTER • The main indicator blinks the currently set temperature.
Operation Method Sequence of Operation Temperature Preset Function Using Method • • • Temperature. Preset is the function to memorize a specified temperature. It is useful to register any temperature used frequently during operation. The preset temperature can be registered any time if the power switch is ON in normal operation. To register this, follow the procedure shown below. Operation continues even when the temperature preset is being registered. 1. Press the Enter key twice.
