The E5CC and E5EC are Digital Controllers. The main functions and characteristics of these Digital
Controllers are as follows:
• Any of the following types of input can be used: thermocouple, platinum resistance thermometer,
infrared sensor, analog voltage, or analog current.
• Either standard or heating/cooling control can be performed.
• Both auto-tuning and self-tuning are supported.
• Event inputs can be used to switch set points (multi-SP function), switch between RUN and STOP
status, switch between automatic and manual operation, and perform other operations.

There are two types of E5CC/E5EC Digital Controllers: The E5CC/E5EC-@-0@@ Standard-type Digital
Controllers and the Simple-type E5CC/E5EC-@-8@@ Digital Controllers. This manual describes how to
use the E5CC/E5EC-@-8@@ Simple-type Digital Controllers. For detailed specifications of functions,
refer to the E5CC/E5EC Digital Temperature Controllers User’s Manual (Cat. No. H174). In this manual,
“E5CC/E5EC” or “E5CC-800/E5EC-800” is used to indicated the E5CC/E5EC-@-8@@ Simple-type Dig-
ital Controllers. Refer to the following manual for further information on communications: E5CC/E5EC
