1. Digital temperature indicator

 (TEMPERATURE 

o

C):  Normally, this indicator shows the chamber 

temperature.  In the setting mode, it shows the set value of the chamber temperature.  If the self 
diagnostic function detects any abnormality, an error code will be displayed. 

2. Heater lamp

 (HEAT):    This lamp lights when the heater is energized. 

3. Digital CO

2

 density indicator

 (CO

2

    %):    Normally, this indicator shows the CO

2

 concentration in the 

chamber.    In the setting mode, it indicates the set value of the CO

2

 concentration. 

4. CO

2

 inject lamp

 (INJECT):    This lamp lights when CO

2

 gas is being injected. 

5. UV indicator 

(UV):  This lamp lights when the UV lamp is ON [when an optional component 

MCO-80UVS (UV system set) is installed]. The blink of this indicator recommends the replacement of UV 
lamp. 

6. High humidity mode indicator

 (RH HIGH):  This lamp lights when the high humidity mode is 

activated. See page 21 for changing to the high humidity mode. 

7. Door lamp

 (DOOR):    This lamp lights when the outer door is open.

 

8. Water level alarm lamp 

(RH PAN):  This lamp blinks when the water in the water reservoir is less 

than approximately 5 L. 

9. Over heat lamp

 (OVER HEAT):    This lamp lights when the chamber temperature reaches the upper 

limit set value. It starts to blink when the chamber temperature is back in below the upper limit set value. 

10. Upper limit regulator

:    This regulator is used to set the upper temperature limit. 

11. Set key

 (SET):    Pressing this key to enter the setting mode, and the digits to be set will blink. 

12. Calibration key

 (CAL):    By pressing this key for approximately 5 seconds, the unit enters calibration 

function mode. 

13. Alarm buzzer stop key

 (BUZZER):    Press this key to silence the buzzer when the alarm operates 

and the buzzer sounds.

 

14. CO

2

 gas supply line indicator 

(A/B):  The lamp for the supply line currently in use lights up 

provided that MCO-80GC gas auto changer is installed. 

15. CO

2

 gas supply line switching key

 :    This key to select CO

2

 gas supply line is available only when 

a gas auto changer MCO-80GC (option) is installed.  When one CO

cylinder is empty, the CO

is 

supplied by the other cylinder automatically.
