3. Instruccions de configuració

  1. Desempaquetar el dispositiu: Carefully remove the Xetron STC-1000Pro controller and its components from the packaging.
  2. Connecteu el sensor: Ensure the temperature sensor is fully inserted into its dedicated port on the side of the controller. A loose connection can lead to "ERR" display.
  3. Col·loca el sensor: Place the temperature probe in the environment where temperature monitoring and control are required. Ensure it is not directly exposed to heating or cooling elements to get an accurate reading.
  4. Connecteu els dispositius de calefacció/refrigeració:
    • Plug your heating device (e.g., heat lamp, heating mat) into the socket labeled "HEATING".
    • Plug your cooling device (e.g., fan, chiller) into the socket labeled "COOLING".

    Important: The maximum output for each socket is 10A at 240VAC. Do not connect high-power equipment exceeding these limits.

  5. Encès: Plug the controller's main power cord into a standard 230V AC power outlet. The display will illuminate, showing the current temperature (PV) and other settings.

ProblemaCausa possibleSolució
"ERR" displayed on screenTemperature sensor not fully inserted or damaged; temperature exceeds measurement range.Ensure the sensor is fully inserted into its port. If the issue persists, the sensor may be faulty and require replacement. If the temperature is outside the -40 to 110 ℃ range, the controller will display "ERR".
Alarm sounds and bell icon appearsCurrent temperature (PV) has exceeded the set high alarm (HA) or fallen below the low alarm (LA) threshold.Check the environmental conditions. Adjust HA/LA settings if necessary. The controller will disable all outputs in fault alarm mode to protect equipment.
Heating/Cooling device not activatingIncorrect temperature settings (TS, CD, HD); compressor delay protection (PT) active; device not properly plugged in; device malfunction.Verify TS, CD, and HD settings. Wait for the PT delay to expire in cooling mode. Ensure devices are securely plugged into the correct outlets. Test heating/cooling devices independently.
Lectura de temperatura inexactaSensor placement; temperature calibration (CA) offset.Relocate the sensor to a more representative area. Use the CA parameter to calibrate the reading against a known accurate thermometer.

8. Advertències i precaucions de seguretat

  • Càrrega elèctrica: Do not connect equipment with a total power consumption exceeding 10A (2400W at 240V) to each outlet. Overloading can cause damage to the controller and connected devices, and poses a fire hazard.
  • Voltage Compatibilitat: Ensure the controller's voltage (230V) matches your local power supply.
  • Exposició a l'aigua: While the probe is waterproof, the main controller unit is not designed for immersion. Avoid exposing the main unit to direct water spray or submersion.
  • Integritat del sensor: Always ensure the temperature sensor is fully and securely inserted. A short-circuited or damaged sensor will trigger a fault alarm and disable outputs for protection.
  • Nens i animals de companyia: Keep the device and its cables out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental damage or injury.
  • Ventilació: Assegureu-vos que hi hagi una ventilació adequada al voltant del controlador per evitar el sobreescalfament.
