are Password protected, you have to type-in the word “p3t3r”, to enter the “Basic Setting mode”.
Please note that the BASIC SETTING mode is only mentioned for skilled personnel. As the BASIC SETTINGS do have

return to the BASIC SETTINGS and go back to the Operation RUN / STOP screen to STOP all channels, before you can
enter the “BASIC SETTINGS” mode.
After you have entered the “BASIC SETTINGS” mode you can select if you want to change the HOLD SETTINGS, the
display unit (°C or F), or the PID parameters.

b) Push the “°C / F SELECTION” text to go to the selecti on screen, where you can switch between deg. Celsius and
Fahrenheit by toggling the text. Push “BACK” to return to the Basic Setting menu. Please note that the Fahrenheit range

same pop-up touchpad. Push “Back” to return to the “BASIC SETTINGS” screen.
