  • Font d'alimentació: Connect 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz to terminals 1 and 2.
  • Entrada: Connect your temperature sensor (thermocouple or RTD) to the designated input terminals (e.g., 8, 9, 10 for TC/RTD).
  • Sortida: Connect your control device (SSR or Relay) to the output terminals (e.g., 3, 4, 5 for Relay/SSR output).
  • Alarma: Connect alarm devices to terminals 6 and 7.

4.1 Controls del panell frontal

  • PV Display (Upper): Shows the Process Value (current temperature).
  • SV Display (Lower): Shows the Set Value (desired temperature).
  • Indicador OUT: Illuminates when the output is active.
  • Botó SET: S'utilitza per entrar al mode de configuració de paràmetres i confirmar les seleccions.
  • Left Arrow Button (<): Used to shift digits during value adjustment.
  • Down Arrow Button (↓): S'utilitza per disminuir valors.
  • Up Arrow Button (↑): S'utilitza per augmentar valors.

4.2 Configuració de la temperatura

  1. Premeu el botó SET el botó una vegada. La pantalla SV començarà a parpellejar.
  2. Utilitza el <, , i buttons to adjust the desired temperature (Set Value).
  3. Premeu el botó SET button again to confirm the new Set Value. The display will stop flashing, and the controller will begin to regulate to the new temperature.

4.3 Configuració avançada dels paràmetres

To access advanced parameters (e.g., PID constants, input type, alarm settings), press and hold the SET button for approximately 3-5 seconds. Navigate through parameters using the SET button and adjust values using the arrow keys. Refer to the detailed parameter list in the full product manual for specific codes and functions.

6. Solució De Problemes

This section provides solutions to common issues encountered with the TC5-S controller.

ProblemaCausa possibleSolució
Sense pantalla/ApagatSense subministrament d'alimentació; Cablejat incorrecte; Fusible fundit.Check power connections (100-240VAC); Verify wiring against diagram; Replace fuse if applicable (by qualified personnel).
La pantalla PV mostra "HHHH" o "LLLL"Sensor open circuit (HHHH) or short circuit (LLLL); Incorrect sensor type setting.Check sensor wiring and integrity; Ensure input type setting matches the connected sensor (e.g., K-type thermocouple, PT100 RTD).
La sortida no s'activaIncorrect output wiring; Output type mismatch (SSR/Relay); Temperature not reaching setpoint; PID parameters require tuning.Verify output wiring; Confirm controller output type matches connected device; Adjust setpoint; Tune PID parameters if necessary.
Temperature unstable/overshootsPID parameters not optimally tuned for the system.Perform auto-tuning or manually adjust PID parameters (P, I, D) according to system response.
