FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Original Instructions
4.3.2.1 Interconnecting heater and temperature-sensor boards
A heater board is always associated with a temperature sensor board. The output of a
heater board is hard-wired to the 9-way D-connector on an associated temperature
controller board. These connections are listed in Table 4-5
If one or more heater boards are fitted, temperature sensor boards must be fitted in the
corresponding slots listed in Table 4-5.
A control-loop must be configured before a heater board can be operated. Any
temperature sensor can be configured to control any heater, as long as the hardware is
connected to match this configuration.
For example:
a) If a single heater board is fitted in slot 2, a temperature sensor board must be
fitted in slot 7. The control loop must be configured so that the temperature
sensor in slot 7 controls the heater in slot 2.
