5.10.4.2  Hours in Use

This field is used to indicate the total number of hours in use of the controller since its initial operation. 
It may be useful to log the amount of time a particular controller has been in operation for the purposes 

of maintenance planning. The value of this accumulator is written to the controller’s non-volatile memory 

once every 24 hours or whenever any maintenance data is reset by the user.

5.10.4.3  Heater ON Time

This field is used to indicate the number of hours that the heat trace has been in the energized state.

5.10.4.4  Hours Since Reset

This field is used to indicate the number of hours that have passed since the unit was last powered on.

5.10.4.5  Device Reset

Figure 132 - Device Reset 

This field enables or disables the Device Reset Alarm which is used to indicate:

1. 

Power to the device has been interrupted and subsequently restored

2. A transient condition has caused the device’s program to restart
3. An internal condition has caused the device’s program to restart

5.10.4.6  Test (Trace Test)

Figure 133 - Trace Test

Touching the Test (Trace Test) tab turns on the controller output for 180 seconds and then turns it off. 
During the test, the Test tab will count down the remaining time until the test terminates. Touching the 
Test tab during the test will terminate the test.
