6. Configuració i instal·lació

6.1. Configuració inicial

1. Desembalar: Carefully remove the controller and all accessories from the packaging.
2. Inspeccionar: Check the device and sensor probe for any visible damage. Do not use if damaged.
3. Connecta el sensor: Plug the temperature sensor (for DTC101) or humidity sensor (for DHC101) firmly into the designated sensor input port on the top right of the controller.
4. Col·locació: Place the controller in a stable location, away from direct heat sources or excessive moisture. The integrated hook allows for wall mounting.
5. Sensor de posició: Position the sensor probe in the environment where temperature or humidity needs to be controlled. Ensure it is not obstructed and can accurately read the ambient conditions.

6.2. Connexió d'alimentació

1. Ensure the controller's output sockets are not connected to any devices yet.
2. Plug the controller's power cord into a standard electrical outlet (100-240V AC, 50/60Hz). The display will illuminate.
3. Once the controller is powered on, the display will show the current measured temperature (DTC101) or humidity (DHC101).

6.3. Connexió d'aparells

1. For DTC101: Plug your heating device into one output socket and your cooling device into the other. Ensure the devices are compatible with the controller's maximum load (e.g., 10A/1200W).
2. For DHC101: Plug your humidifying device into one output socket and your dehumidifying device into the other. Ensure compatibility with the controller's maximum load.
3. The controller will automatically switch power to these sockets based on your set parameters.
