Thermocouples (All Types)
This procedure shows how to configure the Series 800/850 TEC Controllers for use
with a Thermocouple (Any Type)
ç Before changing the jumper settings on the Series 800/850 TEC
Controllers, remove ALL connections (including the AC power)
from the rear of the instrument and remove the cover.
¾ Setup the hardware for Thermocouples (All Types) as follows:

ç Replace the cover of the Series 800/850 TEC Controllers by
sliding it back over the top of the controller and replace the
screws that were removed. Reapply ALL connections.
Front Panel Programming
Pressing ¿¯ simultaneously for 6 seconds will get you to the [`set] Menu in the
bottom display. Cycle through using ¿ or ¯ until you reach [inp1] in the top
display, then press ‰. Cycle through using ‰ to select the parameters to change in
the bottom display. Change the parameters by using the ¿ or ¯ arrows.
1. [Sen1] = [``tc} Remember the parameter to change is in the
lower display. The variable to change is in
the upper display.
2. [In`1] = [```t] Choose the desired “type” thermocouple.
This MUST match the sensor input connector!
Cycle through using ‰ until you see
[inp1] again in the top display. Then press ¿
or ¯ until you see
[Glbl] in the top display. Cycle through using ‰ to select the
parameters to change in the bottom display. Change the parameters by using the ¿
or ¯ arrows.
1. [Unit] = [``SI] This affects the PID parameters.
2.
[`C-f] = [``°C] You have a choice between °C and °F only.
