Setting parameters to configure the controller 

TCI is an intelligent controller with the flexibility to fit a wide range of applications. The control operation is defined by 

parameters set using the standard operation terminal. There are two levels: 

1.

 

User/display parameters (password 0009) 

2.

 

Control parameters (password 00241) 

Recommended set-up procedure 

1.

 

Set jumpers on the back of the controller for inputs and outputs 

2.

 

Connect power supply and inputs 

3.

 

Make sure Celsius 

 Fahrenheit settings are correct (UP07) 

4.

How to change parameters 

1.

 

Press UP/DOWN 



 buttons simultaneously for three seconds. The display will show firmware version and revision 

number. 

2.

 

Press the RIGHT 

 button to start login. CODE is shown in small display. 

3.

 

Code to access user parameters is 0009, control parameter is 0241. The access numbers are fixed and cannot be 

changed.  

4.

 

Select correct password using UP/DOWN 



 buttons. 

5.

 

Press RIGHT 

 button after selecting the correct code.  

6.

 

Once logged in with 0009, the user/display parameters (UP) are displayed immediately.  

Once logged in with 0241 control modules are displayed (Lp1, Lp2, 1u, 2u, etc.) 

select with UP/DOWN 



 and open 

with RIGHT 

. As soon as the module is open its parameters are displayed. 

7.

 

Select the parameters with the UP/DOWN 



 buttons. Change a parameter by pressing the RIGHT 

 button. The 

symbol 

 is displayed to indicate that the parameter may be modified. Use UP/DOWN 



 buttons to adjust the 

value. 

8.

 

After you are done, press RIGHT 

 button to save the new value and return to the selection level (symbol 

 

disappears after selection is saved). Pressing left hand POWER  button without pressing RIGHT 

 will discard the 

value and return without saving. For control parameters press POWER   again to leave parameter selection and 

return to control module selection.  

9.

 

Press the POWER   to leave the menu. The unit will return to normal operation if no button is pressed for more than 

5 minutes.
