Actions:

- Check connection and operation of the sensor S1 (ambient);
- Check the cooling system;
- Check function 

[a2]

.

Reason: 

High temperature alarm.

- Check connection and operation of the sensor S1 (ambient);
- Check cooling system and/or door sealing;
- Check function 

[a3]

.

Reason: 

Low voltage alarm.

Actions:

- Check that the voltage is not below that configured in

[U1]

.

Reason: 

High voltage alarm.

Actions:

- Check that the voltage is not above that configured in

[U2]

.

Reason:

Reason: 

Maximum  compressor  ON  time  exceeded  without  reaching  the  control 
temperature (setpoint).

Actions:

detection (if applicable), and the connection to the controller.

8. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1)I have more than one instrument. Is it possible to use the frontal module of one with the base module 

of the other? 

Yes, the frontal module works with any base module of the same version.

5)Is it possible to extend the length of the RJ45 cable connecting the base and frontal modules? 

Contact Full Gauge Controls for more information.

6)Is it possible to extend the length of the ambient and evaporator sensor cables? 

Yes. Contact Full 

Gauge Controls for more information.

9. KEY OF PROGRAMMING - EasyProg ver.02 or higher 

This accessory's main function is to store the controllers' the setup data. It can load a new controller's setup at 
any time and unload onto a production line (of the same controller). 
The 

MT-444 eXpress

 and 

MT-444 V-eXpress

 controller includes an USB connection to load or unload 

setups: 

- USB:

 can be connected to the computer via the USB port. Using the Sitrad Preset Editor, setups can be copied, 

edited and saved in 

EasyProg 

ver. 02

. The USB port can also electrically supply the 

EasyProg 

ver. 02

 and the controller (when the USB and Serial TTL are used in conjunction).

EasyProg*

Base Module

The keys work in two ways, one is hidden and the other is always visible:

[,0]

 The keys remain hidden. Touching any key will only enable the use of the keyboard. If 

no key is pressed within 10 seconds, the keyboard will be hidden again. This prevents 
unwanted activations from being performed.

[,1]

  The  keys  always  remain  on.  In  this  mode,  the  first  touch  is  enough  to  perform 

functions.

When  control  functions  are  shutdown,  the  controller  starts  to  operate  purely  as  a 
temperature  indicator,  with  all  outputs  deactivated.  This  function  can  operate  in  the 
following ways:

[,0]

Does not allow the shutdown of control functions.

[,1]

Allows turning on and off of control functions only if the functions are unlocked.

[,2]

Allows turning on and off of control functions even if the functions are blocked.

NOTE: To activate or deactivate the control, please refer to item 6.4

[A5]

[A6]

[A7]

[L1]

This function is used to stop the alarm for a certain period, due to a possible increase in 
temperature from defrost. During defrost, draining and fan-delay, the alarm does not work.

During the time set in this function, the alarm remains off, waiting for the system to start 
working.

When defrost is concluded by time and not by temperature, the user is alerted by a 
blinking dot on the lower right corner of the display (

[,,.]

).

With this function enabled, setups are protected against unauthorized changes, and are 
available for viewing only. In this state, when trying to change these values, an

 [LC]

 

message will be displayed.

(**)The maximum default value is 140V for a 115Vac power supply and 260V for a 230Vac power supply.

2)In the 

MT-444 V-eXpress

 version, is it possible to deactivate the voltage monitor? 

Yes, just set the 

function U1 to a value greater than U2.

3)Is it possible to deactivate sensor 2 (evaporator)? 

Yes, see function S1 on the setup table (item 6.5).

4)What percentage of power supply voltage variation can the controller tolerate? 

10% either way.
