Start Operation of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides
The ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line is switched on by the dip switch at the back. Make
sure the display shows “RUN” (see Section
). The system immediately starts heating up the
heated devices (Heated Plate, Heated Lid).
WARNING
– Be aware that when the system is switched on, 10V DC voltage is
applied to the underside of the glass plate. Do not touch the underside or contact it with
anything conductive! This could cause a short circuit that may destroy the controller
and/or the lid.
If you are not sure which temperature is set (e.g., when operating the system the first time), it is
recommended to check the settings without your sample.
