- SV Indicator: Illuminates when the set value is displayed or being adjusted.
- Indicador AL1: Illuminates when Alarm 1 is active.
- Indicador OUT: Illuminates when the control output is active.
- °F/°C Indicators: Show the selected temperature unit.
- Botons amunt / avall: Used to adjust parameter values.
- MD (Mode) Button: Used to navigate through parameter groups and confirm settings.
4. Configuració i instal·lació
4.1. Muntatge
The TC4Y-14R is designed for panel mounting. Ensure adequate space for ventilation and wiring connections. Avoid mounting near heat sources or areas with excessive dust or moisture.
4.2. Cablatge
Refer to the wiring diagram on the side of the unit or in the full technical specifications for precise connections. Ensure all power is off before wiring.
- Font d'alimentació: Connect 100-240VAC to the designated power terminals.
- Entrada del sensor: Connect your temperature sensor (e.g., thermocouple, RTD) to the input terminals. Ensure correct polarity for thermocouples.
- Control Output (Relay): Connect the load to the relay output terminals.
- Control Output (SSR): Connect the Solid State Relay (SSR) input to the SSR output terminals.
- Sortida d'alarma (opcional): If using, connect alarm devices to the alarm output terminals.
Nota: Incorrect wiring can cause damage to the unit or connected equipment. Always double-check connections.
5. Instruccions de funcionament
5.1. Engegada inicial
After completing all wiring, apply power to the unit. The display will show the current process value (PV).
5.2. Setting the Set Value (SV)
- Premeu el botó MD button briefly. The SV indicator will illuminate, and the display will show the current set value.
- Utilitza el Up or Avall buttons to adjust the set value to your desired temperature.
- Premeu el botó MD button again to confirm the setting and return to PV display.
5.3. Configuració dels paràmetres
To access advanced parameters (e.g., PID constants, alarm settings, input type), press and hold the MD button for several seconds until the parameter group changes. Navigate through parameters using the MD button and adjust values with the Up/Avall buttons. Refer to the full technical manual for a complete list of parameters and their functions.
6. Manteniment
The AUTONICS TC4Y-14R is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance.
- Neteja: Netegeu suaument el panell frontal amb un drap suau i sec. No utilitzeu productes de neteja abrasius ni dissolvents.
- Inspecció: Periodically check wiring connections for looseness or signs of damage.
- Calibració: If precise accuracy is critical, periodic calibration of the temperature sensor and controller may be required by a qualified technician.
7. Solució De Problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Sense pantalla/Apagat | Sense subministrament d'alimentació; cablejat incorrecte | Comproveu les connexions d'alimentació i el volumtage; Verify wiring diagram. |
| La lectura de la temperatura no és precisa | Sensor faulty; Incorrect sensor type setting; Sensor not properly installed | Check sensor for damage; Verify input type parameter; Ensure sensor is correctly placed. |
