Instruccions de funcionament

Visualització finalitzadaview:

The LED display shows three main values:

  • VA (Valor del Procés): Current measured temperature by the sensor.
  • RV (Return Value): The temperature at which the connected device will turn ON.
  • SV (Valor definit): The temperature at which the connected device will turn OFF.

1. Switching Temperature Units (°C/°F):

To switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F), simultaneously press and hold the UP i ABAIX buttons for a few seconds until the unit changes on the display.

2. Setting Heating Mode:

In heating mode, the device will turn on when the temperature drops to the RV (ON) value and turn off when it reaches the SV (OFF) value.

  1. Premeu el botó SET button once. The PV value will start flashing.
  2. Utilitza el UP or ABAIX buttons to adjust the SV (OFF) temperature.
  3. Premeu el botó SET button again. The RV value will start flashing.
  4. Utilitza el UP or ABAIX buttons to adjust the RV (ON) temperature.
  5. Premeu el botó SET button a third time to confirm and save your settings.

Example for Heating Mode: If ON at 78°F and OFF at 83°F, the heater will activate when the temperature drops to 78°F and deactivate when it reaches 83°F.

3. Setting Cooling Mode:

In cooling mode, the device will turn on when the temperature rises to the RV (ON) value and turn off when it reaches the SV (OFF) value.

  1. Premeu el botó SET button once. The PV value will start flashing.
  2. Utilitza el UP or ABAIX buttons to adjust the SV (OFF) temperature.
  3. Premeu el botó SET button again. The RV value will start flashing.
  4. Utilitza el UP or ABAIX buttons to adjust the RV (ON) temperature.
  5. Premeu el botó SET button a third time to confirm and save your settings.

Example for Cooling Mode: If ON at 86°F and OFF at 82°F, the cooler will activate when the temperature rises to 86°F and deactivate when it drops to 82°F.
