key (quick touch) while the temperature is
being displayed by the controller. Each touch displays the next function in the list; to confirm, use the
/
key (quick touch). For further details, refer to chapter 8.3. See below the functions map

8.3. Basic operations
8.3.1. Adjusting desired temperature (setpoint) and cyclic timer
times
Hold down the
/
key for 2 seconds to enter the setpoint adjustment menu. The message
[Sp1,]
will be shown in the display and then the value to adjust the 1st stage setpoint. Use the
<
or
>
keys to
change the value and press
/
. to confirm. If the 2nd stage is set as thermostat (F08 = 0 or 1), then the
[Sp2,]
message will be displayed, indicating the setting of the 2nd stage setpoint. Again use
the
<
or
>
keys to modify the value, then confirm by pressing
/
, if the 2nd stage is set as cyclic timer
(F08=2) it will be possible to set the time on
[Ton,]
and the time off
[Toff]
.
8.3.2. Functions Lockdown
Using the functions lockdown option ensures greater security whilst operating the device. When it is
active, the setpoint and other parameters may be visible to the user, but are protected against undue
changes (F25=2). Alternatively, you can block the changes in the control functions by releasing the
setpoint setup (F25=1), time ON and time OFF of the cyclic timer.
Using the
;
key (quick touch), access the
[LOC,]
function in the quick access menu, confirm by
pressing
/
(quick touch), then the message
[no,,]
will be displayed. After that, hold down the
>
key
for the time configured for the functions lock (F26), until
[LOC,]
. is displayed. Upon releasing the key,
the message
[On,,]
will be displayed indicating that the block function has been activated.
To unlock, turn off the controller then turn it back on whilst holding down the
>
key. Keep holding down
the key until the message
[LOC,]
appears. Keep the key held down for ten seconds and the
message
[OFF,]
will be shown on the display, indicating the deactivation of the block function once the
key is released.
8.3.3. Control Functions Shutdown
Turning off the control functions allows the controller to operate only as temperature gauge, keeping the
control outputs and the alarms off. The use of this feature is enable or not by the function of the controls
functions
[,F33]
. When enable, the control and alarm functions are turned off(
[CTRL][OFF,]
) or
on (
[Ctrl][ON,,]
) via the easy menu in the
[Ctrl]
option. When the control functions are
switched off, the message
[OFF,]
will be displayed in alternation with the temperature and other
messages. Except when
[,f33]
equals 3 or 4, in these cases the display turns off, keeping only the
icon on.
NOTE:
You can also switch the control functions on off by pressing the key for 5 seconds.
;
NOTE:
When switching the control functions back on,
MT-516
e
VT
will continue to adhere to the
same functions “
[,f07]
- Delay to turn on the 1st stage output on" and “
[,f18]
- Delay to turn on the
2nd stage output".
8.3.5. Manually changing the cyclic timer status
When the 2nd stage is set as cyclic timer (F08=2), pressing the
>
key for 4 seconds allows you to
manually change the cyclic timer output status from “on” to “off” and vice-versa, independent of the time
elapsed. Changing the cyclic timer status will display the message
[,--,]
.
8.3.6. Minimum and Maximum Temperature Record
By pressing down the
<
key or via the quick access menu, the message
[rEg,]
appears, after which
the minimum and maximum temperatures recorded will be displayed. To erase the current minimum
and maximum values, hold down the
;
key (quick touch) until the message
[CrEg]
appears and
confirm using the
/
key.
Note:
If the
<
key is pressed while the logs are displayed, the values are reset and the message
[rst,]
is displayed.
Note:
The maximum and minimum temperatures will only be recorded if the setpoint of one of the
stages is reached at least once. Before that, the
[____]
message will be displayed for the records of
minimum temperature and
[++++]
for the records of maximum temperature.
8.3.7. Unit Selection
To select the unit in which the device will operate, enter the function
[,F01]
using the access code
[,231]
. Then, press the
. key. After this, select the unit desired
[,=C,]
or
[,=F,]
using
/
the
keys; to confirm press
. Every time the unit is changed, the functions settings return to
<
or
>
/
the default value, thus, they must be set up again.
8.3.8. Buzzer inhibition
When activated, the buzzer can be inhibited by pressing the
>
key for two seconds.
8.4. Advanced operations
The functions menu can be accessed through the quick access menu, using the
[Func]
option or by
simultaneously pressing the
<
>
keys whilst the temperature is being displayed. To allow the
and
parameters to be changed, enter
[,F01]
by pressing
/
(quick touch) and using the
> <
keys
or
enter code 123 (one hundred and twenty-three), and then confirm with
/
. To change the other
functions, browse the menu using the
> <
keys and proceed the same way to adjust them. To exit
or
the menu and return to the normal operation display, press
/
(long touch) until
[----]
.
NOTE:
If the functions lock is enabled, when pressing the
, keys, the controller will display the
>
or
<
message
[LOC,]
and will not allow parameter adjustment.
Press for 5 seconds: switch off control functions
;
Press for 2 seconds: when displaying records, clear history.
<
8.3.4. View other measurements
By pressing the
>
key (quick touch) it is possible to display the voltage and frequency of mains and
when the 2nd stage is set as a cyclic timer (F08 = 2), the elapsed time in the cyclic timer can be
displayed.
NOTE:
If a measurement is not available (voltage monitoring disabled, for example) or is the preferred
display measurement, it will not be displayed.
