Configuring the Control Loops
Before using the Loop #1 (main heater) control output, it is essential that the proper
load resistance and output range be selected. This is done using the Control Loop
Setup menu as follows:
Press the Loop 1 key.
In the Control Loop Configuration menu, Use the up, down, right and left
keys to scroll to the Htr Resistance field. An example is shown here:
Use the + and 0 keys to select between a 50-
Ohm and a 25-Ohm heater and then press
the Enter key.
Use the navigation keys to scroll to the Range
