Configuration Parameters 

Perhaps the most important parameters are the upper and lower temperature limits, as these 

can be used to limit damage to the sample or equipment and to prevent hazards resulting 

from heating of the sample. 

Accessing the parameters 

1.

 

In STOP status, use the arrow buttons 

 

and

 

 

to select 

CONF

.  

2.

 

Hold FUNC for approximately two seconds until the system ‘beeps’. 
This enters the configuration mode. The Upper display shows 

0000

 and the Lower 

display shows 

PASS

The system is prompting for the passcode, which must be entered within ten seconds. 

3.

 

Enter the four-digit passcode (1111), using the arrow buttons to change the flashing 

digit and FUNC to move to the next digit. Press FUNC after the fourth digit to input the 

passcode. 
The flashing Lower display shows the parameter number (for example, 

P-01),

 the Upper 

display shows the corresponding value and parameters can now be modified. 

Setting the parameters 

1.

 

Whilst the lower display is flashing, use the arrow buttons to move between the 

parameters.  

2.

 

Once the desired parameter has been selected, press FUNC. 
The Upper display will flash. 

3.

 

Use the arrow buttons to increase (or decrease) the value shown. 

4.

 

Press FUNC to set the value. 
The Lower display flashes. 

5.

 

The arrow buttons can be used again to select a parameter. 

6.

 

Hold FUNC for two seconds until the system ‘beeps’ to return to the STOP status. 
The Lower display shows 

C-01

C-02

S.SP

 or 

Conf.
