INTRODUCTION
Your Centipede 2
®
Temperature Control System supplies a complete network of
temperature control by providing a controller and sensor to EACH heater in a
system. A Centipede 2
®
Module Unit is a compact PID temperature controller
with RTD feedback. Multiple modules can be networked together with CAT5
communication cables. The Centipede 2
®
Touchscreen Interface Unit acts as a
Modbus master for up to 128 Centipede 2
®
Modules. This unit displays real-time
data for all zones and allows a user to modify the major settings, such as set-
point in the Centipede 2
®
Modules.
For successful operation of this system, read these instructions prior to use.
General Specifications
•
PID-auto-tuned control for each zone: Receives set-point through
communication link and stored in nonvolatile memory (retains settings if
power is interrupted)
•
Quickly and easily program the following parameters (individually or
globally across system): Temperature set-point, high-limit alarm
temperature, and low-limit alarm temperature
•
Operator interface displays actual temperature, power duty cycle of
heater, and time / date stamped alarm messages in real-time.
•
Automatically assigned zone addresses
•
