Safety: Ensure the voltage, phase and cycle on the temperature control panel is the same as the power supply.
Turn the A/M switch to the 0 (off) position.

indicated on the serial plate and in the record of purchase. Ensure the green wire is connected to earth.
2. Lift the covers on the platen connectors on the back panel of the temperature control panel and connect the
platen cables. Press the plugs firmly into the receptacles and rotate the latches to secure the plugs. When the
cables are removed, close the covers to protect the connector from water and dirt.
3. Connect the temperature control panel to the power supply. Refer to the electrical specifications indicated
on the serial plate and in the record of purchase. The temperature controllers should indicate the actual
platen temperature and the set point temperature.
5. OPERATION
The RC3(P)-LOG temperature control panel has one
datalogging temperature control unit, which controls
the temperature of the upper platen and the lower
platen. The average user need only adjust the
temperature set points for top and bottom platen. The
temperature controller has many other settings that
have been set by the factory.
The operator interface consists of a display screen and
four navigation push buttons.
