Using an External Transformer
The
Portafuse III Electrofusion Processor
can be optionally equipped with an external transformer to increase
its output capability from 30 amps to 80 amps. The transformer plugs into the red connector located on the
back right corner of the processor (
also
see page 14
).
Follow these general guidelines to ensure proper operation:
1.
Only use a transformer that has been approved for use with the
Portafuse III Electrofusion
Processor
.
2.
Plug the transformer into the processor before the processor is turned ON.
3.
Make sure the transformer connector is fully mated with the connector on the processor before
use.
If mated incorrectly, the integrity of the fusion may be compromised.
4.
After the transformer is properly plugged into the processor, follow the normal power up sequence
on described on page 22.
Entering Data with the Keypad
To enter data in any field manually, press the
UP button
or the
DOWN button
to scroll through the list of valid
characters. When you find the one you wish to use press the
START button
to move to the next character. If
an invalid character is entered, press the
STOP
button
to back the cursor up to the previous character and
change it. (If the
STOP button
is pressed while on the first character the processor will return to the previous
screen.) Repeat this procedure until all data is entered. When the
START
button
is pressed after the last
character, the processor will move to the next screen (if the
START
button
is pressed when a blank character
is displayed, the processor will skip the rest of the field and move to the next screen).
NOTE:
The processor will not allow an operator to enter invalid or out of range data. Example: If the maximum
number allowed in a field is 40.0, the processor will not allow the operator to enter a number greater than
40.0.
NOTE:
When entering data, the processor will acknowledge valid data with one beep and continue. If there is an
error encountered the processor will beep twice and not continue.
