6.  Operating procedures 

6.1.  Switching on / Selecting the language 

Switching on: 

Turn on the mains power switch.  

The unit performs a self-test.  
All segments of the 5-digit MULTI-DISPLAY (LED), all indicator lights 
and the DIALOG-DISPLAY (LCD) will illuminate. 

Then the software version (example: V 4.01-J) appears. The display 
"

OFF

" indicates the unit is ready to operate (standby mode). 

The high temperature circulator enters the operating mode activated 
before switching the programmable controller off: 

keypad control mode 

(manual operation) or 

remote control mode 

(operation via personal computer).  

Selecting the language: 

There are two options for the language of the DIALOG-DISPLAY (LCD): 
German or English. Select the desired language in the MENUE level 
under the configuration submenu. 

Press the respective keys in the following order: 

1.  MENUE key 

  1 x 

2.  Enter key   

  1 x 

3.  Cursor key   

  4 x 

4.  P key 

 

  1 x 

5.  Enter key   

  1 x 

6.  Escape key 

  2 x 

The DIALOG-DISPLAY (LCD) helps to follow up the individual settings. 
(example: swap the language from German to English.)
