- Indicates the measured value of current, temperature, resistance,
AD590 sensor current, or LM335 sensor voltage. An
err
indicates a sensor error,
usually caused by the sensor not hooked up or the wrong sensor selected. In the
screen shown above, the
T
is shown.

would be seen when operating in
those modes.
SETUP
- Pushing the adjacent soft key activates the setup screen.
CAL
- Pushing the adjacent soft key switches to the calibration menu, where I
TE
,
Sensor, and RTD cable null can be selected.
LINK
- Pushing the adjacent soft key activates the linking screen. This establishes
any interaction that may be desired between different modules. See the Model 6000
main manual for a description of the linking process.
The bottom line on the display has 6 “LED” elements, each indicating a particular
state of the TEC. They are defined as:
I
When illuminated, indicates the TEC module is in current limit.
V
When illuminated, indicates the TEC module has reached it’s
voltage limit.
T
When illuminated, indicates the TEC module is outside the
temperature limits defined by T
HI
and T
LO
in the setup screen.
R
When illuminated, indicates the TEC module is outside the
reference limits defined by R

C/H
When illuminated, indicates that the TEC is cooling or heating.
OutT/InT
When illuminated, indicates that the TEC is out of tolerance or in
tolerance as defined by
Tol Time
and
Tol Temp
in the setup
screen.
