ThermoTools supported products
A large range of 'digital programmable products' is supported by ThermoTools, and more will follow.
■
Simple yet advanced at the same time...
ThermoTools is equipped with extended help functionality, that covers everything
from getting started to becoming familiar with the advanced functionality. The
'configuration wizard' can be used to configure controllers for 'basic' applications.
The wizard will ask you a sequence of questions about the type of controller set up
that you require based on the most commonly used parameters. This allows you to
create a quick and easy set up.
■
All parameters at your fingertips
The ThermoTools components use a series of tabs to display information regarding
the controller parameters, all sorted in a very logical order, making each parameter
easy to find.
Even if no device is connected you are still able to edit, save and load parameter sets.
If a device is connected, two modes are available; the configuration mode and the
monitoring mode. In configuration mode, parameter sets may be downloaded to, and
uploaded from, the controller. Parameter sets can also be saved to store your
settings, for use on other applications. In this way you can create a library for your
applications and their settings. Listing details of the machine, customer or application
can be done in the notes section, for quick and easy recognition or retrieval. If
required you can also reset all parameter values in the controller back to their factory defaults by pressing the 'Reset
to factory settings' button.
