Preset Display
The PRESET display mode is used to set the appropriate output value using
the rotary control knob before turning the OUTPUT on. Once the control
level is set, the OUTPUT may be turned on and the actual SENSOR or
CURRENT value can be monitored.
Sensor Display
The actual temperature sensor value is monitored in this mode. The value
displayed depends on the sensor being used with °C displayed for IC
sensors and kΩ for thermistors.
Current Display
This readout monitors the actual current level in Amps being supplied to
the TE module. When the OUTPUT is first selected this current value may
be as high as the LIMIT value. As the temperature stabilizes the output
current will decrease.
Limit Display
This value is set by the limit set screw adjustment. See Limit Set, 2.2.4.
Indicator LEDs
To the right of the numeric display are three LEDs which indicate measure-
ment units: 1) resistance in kΩ, 2) temperature in °C, or 3) output current in
Amps.
2.2.7 Control Knob
The knob control on the right side of the front panel sets the appropriate
reference value corresponding to either resistance (thermistor), tempera-
ture (IC sensors), or TE current (I
TE
) to be maintained by the Model 300
Series Temperature Controller.
