6.3 Setting Temperature Parameters
The unit allows for programmable temperature control. Follow these steps to adjust settings:
- Introduïu la configuració: Press and hold the 'S' button for 3 seconds to enter the parameter setting mode. The display will show 'F1'.
- Select Parameter: Use the 'Up' or 'Down' arrows to navigate through the parameters (F1, F2, F3, F4).
- View Valor del paràmetre: Press 'S' to display the current value of the selected parameter.
- Ajusta el valor: Mentre viewing a parameter's value, use the 'Up' or 'Down' arrows to adjust it.
- Desa la configuració: Press the power ON/OFF button to save the new value and exit the setting mode for that parameter.
Figura 6.2: Step-by-step guide for adjusting the temperature control parameters on the digital display.
Definicions dels paràmetres:
- F1 (Temperature Value): Sets the target temperature at which the fans will activate. Default: 97.0°F.
- F2 (Difference Set Value): Sets the temperature difference between the target temperature and the actual temperature before the fans turn off. Default: 3.0°F.
- F3 (Compressor Delay Time): Sets a delay before the fans start after the temperature threshold is met. Default: 2 minutes.
- F4 (Temperature Calibration Value): Allows for fine-tuning the temperature sensor reading if calibration is needed. Default: 0.0°F.
