5. Funcionament
5.1 Encès/Apagat
Manteniu premut el botó Botó d'encesa (
) for 3 seconds to turn the device on or off.
5.2 Configuració de la temperatura
To set the desired temperature (setpoint):
- Premeu el botó botó SET (often represented by a gear or wrench icon, or a dedicated 'SET' button).
- Utilitza el Up (
) i Avall (
) buttons to adjust the temperature value. - Premeu el botó botó SET de nou per confirmar i sortir.
5.3 Canvi d'unitats de temperatura (°C/°F)
The controller supports switching between Celsius and Fahrenheit. The exact method may vary, but typically involves a long press of a specific button combination or accessing a menu setting. Refer to the on-screen indicators for the current unit.
5.4 Configuració avançada dels paràmetres
The STC-1000HX allows configuration of various parameters suchs as:
- Differential (Hysteresis): The temperature difference between the setpoint and when the cooling/heating action is triggered.
- Calibració de temperatura: Adjusts the displayed temperature to match a reference thermometer.
- Cooling Delay Protection: Sets a delay before the cooling output activates to protect the compressor.
Accessing these parameters usually involves a specific key combination (e.g., holding SET and UP/DOWN buttons simultaneously) to enter a menu. Follow the on-screen prompts to navigate and adjust values.
6. Manteniment
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Elitech STC-1000HX temperature controller, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Neteja: Wipe the controller's front panel with a soft, damp drap. No utilitzeu productes de neteja abrasius ni dissolvents, ja que poden danyar la pantalla o laasing. Ensure no liquid enters the device.
- Cura del sensor: Keep the temperature sensor clean and free from debris. Avoid bending or kinking the sensor cable excessively. Ensure the sensor is placed in an appropriate location for accurate temperature measurement, away from direct heat sources or drafts unless intended.
- Condicions ambientals: Operate the controller within the specified ambient temperature and humidity ranges (0°C ~ 60°C, 20% ~ 85% RH non-condensing) to prevent damage.

7. Solució De Problemes
This section provides solutions to common issues you might encounter with your STC-1000HX.
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| "EE" or "HHH" displayed | Sensor failure or temperature exceeds measurement range. | Check sensor connection. Replace sensor if damaged. Ensure temperature is within -55°F ~ 248°F / -50°C ~ 120°C. |
| El controlador no s'encén | No hi ha alimentació o cablejat incorrecte. | Verify power supply (110VAC) is connected correctly to terminals 1 & 2. Check fuses or circuit breakers. |
| Cooling/Heating not activating | Incorrect setpoint/differential, cooling delay active, or faulty relay/device. | Check setpoint and differential settings. Wait for cooling delay to expire. Test connected cooling/heating device independently. Verify wiring to terminals 5-8. |
| Lectura de temperatura inexacta | Sensor placement, sensor fault, or calibration needed. | Relocate sensor to a representative area. Perform temperature calibration. Replace sensor if faulty. |
