OPERATING THE SYSTEM 

  
When the bath is ready for use it can be switched on by 
pressing the mains switch.  
 
The electronics are suited for both 50 and 60 Hz. Check 
whether the voltage of the system conforms to the mains 
voltage 
 

7.1  QUICK START 

 
To  start  operating  the  bath  in  a  quick  way  do  the 
following: 
 
Fill  the  bath  with  fluid  as  indicated  in  "Bath  fluid  level"
page 6, 
Place the power plug, connect to mains socket, 
Switch the bath on using the mains switch, 
Select appropriate set point, 
 
PID settings 
All measuring results have been acquired using following 
PID settings: 
Pb 

:= 

25 

:= 

16 

:= 

 
Under  different  settings  its  possible  to  achieve  even 
better values by trimming the PID settings.  
 
Place  the  bath spirit  level.  The  four  supporting  feet  can 
be turned in and outwards for exact adjustment. 
 

Menu items 

Use the turn-push button to select a menu item and select 
the item by pressing the button. After pressing a     sign 
appears next to the value indicating the value can now be 
changed.  Pressing  the  button  again  activates  the  value 
immediately. When the value is altered but the button is 
not pressed the value will be accepted and stored after 5 
seconds automatically. The menu returns back to normal 
operating mode. 
 

Menu item "Set point"  

Select the set point temperature. Resolution is 0.01°C +/- 
the system accuracy.  
 

Menu item "Offset"  

The temperature displayed can be increased or decreased 
with an offset ranging from +5.00 down to -5.00 °C in steps 
of 0.01°C. This way the temperature reading on the display 
can  be  synchronised  with  an  independent  separate 
thermometer.
