6. Инструкции по настройке

  1. Подключите зонд: Plug the submersible temperature probe into the designated port on the main controller unit. Use the provided suction cup to secure the probe inside your aquarium or water bath, ensuring it is fully submerged and away from direct heat sources or strong currents.
  2. Подключение устройств отопления/охлаждения: Plug your heating device (e.g., aquarium heater) into the 'HEATING' outlet and your cooling device (e.g., cooling fan) into the 'COOLING' outlet on the power strip. Ensure devices are rated within the controller's maximum output load (1200W).
  3. Включение питания: Plug the main power cord of the ITC308S controller into a standard 110V AC power outlet. The LED display will illuminate, showing the current temperature (PV) and the set temperature (SV).

7. Инструкция по эксплуатации

  1. View Current Temperature (PV): The upper LED display shows the current measured temperature (Process Value).
  2. View Заданная температура (SV): The lower LED display shows the desired set temperature (Set Value).
  3. Установить температуру:
    • Нажмите НАБОР Нажмите кнопку один раз. Дисплей SV начнет мигать.
    • Используйте Вверх (▲) or Вниз (▼) кнопки для регулировки желаемой температуры.
    • Нажимать НАБОР Повторите запрос для подтверждения и сохранения настройки или подождите несколько секунд, пока она сохранится автоматически.
  4. Heating/Cooling Indication: The 'HEATING' or 'COOLING' indicator lights will illuminate when the respective outlet is active.
  5. Калибровка температуры: Refer to the detailed instructions in the included paper manual for advanced settings like temperature calibration, differential settings, and alarm parameters. These settings allow fine-tuning of the controller's response.
  6. Сигнализация: The controller features over-temperature and sensor fault alarms. If an alarm triggers, the display will show an error code (e.g., 'HHH' for over-temperature, 'LLL' for under-temperature, 'ERR' for sensor fault) and an audible alert may sound. Address the issue promptly.

8. Техническое обслуживание

  • Очистка зонда: Regularly inspect and clean the submersible probe to prevent algae or mineral buildup, which can affect accuracy. Use a soft cloth and mild cleaning solution if necessary.
  • Блок контроллера: Wipe the main controller unit with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse it in water.
  • Проверка кабеля: Periodically check all cables for any signs of wear, cuts, or damage. Replace if necessary.
