First connect the power out of the cooling unit with the power in of
the pco.edge camera by using the PCO WAT camera cable.
The cooling unit provides two operation modes.
Operation Mode on: the cooling unit turns on and
provides permanently power to the camera. The
camera can be switchted on and off as needed.
Operation mode follow: the cooling unit turns on when
the camera is switched on and vice versa.
Error Codes
The coolant temperature sensor is located in the coolant tank.
If a warning level is passed, the Power LED blinks slowly and the
Error LED displays the error code. If a failure level is passed, the
Power LED blinks fast and the Error LED shows the error code.
Error / Failure
one short flash
warning when temperature at 55 °C
(also if sensor is defect or missing)
one short flash failure when temperature at 60 °C
1Hz

two short

is reached)
The camera has its own protection circuit and will shut down
Peltier cooling automatically when the electronics temperature
exceeds safety level. The camera itself will keep on running, but
sensor temperature will increase. (valid for air and water cooling!)
If the camera and the water cooler have a different power supply,
always first shut down camera and then the cooling system to
avoid damages.
