T-Cube TEC Controller
4.3.2 Selecting Display Value
The Display menu allows you to change the information
displayed when the TEC element is enabled.
Press the MODE button to enter the SETUP menu.
Scroll using the OUTPUT Knob to select the dISP menu item.
Press the ENTER button to enter the Display menu.
Use the OUTPUT Knob to move through the diSP menu items.
T Act
- when this item is selected, the current temperature of the
laser diode is displayed as measured by the temperature sensor
or thermistor. If a thermistor is bei ng used this valu e will be
display the resitance measured (k
Ω
). If a temperature sensor is
connected then this value will be displayed in °F or °C depending
on the units parameter setting - see below.
Curr
- when selected, the amount of current be ing supplied by
the TEC element will be displayed.
dELtA
- this parameter displ ays the difference between the
actual temperature and the desired temperature when the TEC
is enabled. If a a thermistor is connected then this valu e will
display the difference in the resistance value (k
Ω
). If a
temperature sensor is connected, then this value will be in °F or
°C depending on the units parameter setting - see below.
Units
- T he menu item allows you to change the display of
degrees from Centigrade to Fahrenheit. Select this item with the
