Ch. 19. Air Temperature Controller Sec. 19.7. Data Logging
Feedback ON, but door open: The ATC is on,
the door is OPEN and the ATC feedback loop is
in Standby mode.
• This is a typical condition when the
Cypher door is opened during use.
• When the door is opened, the feedback
loop is paused and the software holds the
fan and heater power steady. Feedback
resumes a few minutes after the door is
closed again.
Note Be aware that the longer you keep the door
open the more unstable the interior will become
due to heat loss. It is good practice to open the
enclosure door only long enough to remove the
cantilever holder or exchange samples in the
instrument.
Note Close the door when exchanging the tip in
the cantilever holder or when you are prepping a
sample.
Door just closed, but feedback still on hold:
The ATC power is on, the door is CLOSED and
the ATC Feedback is in Standby mode.
• The is a typical condition when the Cypher
door is opened and closed.
• The Feedback loop will stay in standby
mode for an additional 30 seconds and
then reactivate automatically, turning all
three lights to green again.
19.7. Data Logging
The data logging area allows you to monitor the temperature sensors as well as the fan speed and heater
power over time. You already encountered it in
4 and we’ll follow up here with some more detail.
Please refer to the data section of the ATC panel (see
Figure 19.2 on page 211).
