A421 Series Standard Electronic Temperature Controls Installation Instructions

A421 Control Parameter Setup Menus
The A421 temperature controls provide a Basic and an
Advanced setup menu that allow you to scroll through
the parameter setup codes, view and edit parameter
values, and set up your control for your application
requirement. The control also has a Restricted
(adjustment) menu. See
for more information.
Note:
The A421 control retains a copy of the saved
parameter values in memory. When you change and
save a new value, the new value immediately
overwrites the previous value and is saved to memory.
In the event of a power failure, brown out, or when you
disconnect power from the control, all of the current
parameter values in memory are retained.
Reconnecting power to the control restores all of the
saved values.
