USB Connection
Unit has been designed with a USB type B connector. Plug one end into a spare USB 2.0
port on the computer, the other end into the USB type B receptacle on the controller labeled
USB.
Controller will be identified as “DMFC v2.0” and a serial port will be appeared to the operating
system.
Temperature Probe
The probe is an external temperature measurement device which is attached to the controller.
It comes with length of 1m cable. Probe measures temperatures from -55°C to +125°C.
Accuracy of the probe is ±0.5°C from -10°C to +85°C. The controller detects the presence of
the probe and requests temperature readings at 30 sec intervals. When using multiple
controllers and probes, the reported temperature may differ slightly between units due to small
differences between individual sensor readouts.
This does not affect the operation of the units, as they respond to measured temperature
change, not to the actual temperature.
Keep in mind you have to connect the temperature probe before you power on the
controller. If you connect it later the probe will not report temperature reading. You will
need to recycle power to make the probe work.
