Fig. 14—Enable or disable the adaptive mode using the Up/Down buttons.

 

NOTE

: If the temperature source is set to heater plate, then the adaptive mode 

cannot be enabled.

2.  Press the 

Up

 or 

Down

 button to enable or disable adaptive mode.

3.  Press the 

Display

 button to save the new parameters or press the 

Config

 button 

to toggle through the rest of the parameters.

 

Fig. 15—(Left) The main display shows the selected adaptive mode.
Fig. 16—(Right) A timer displays counting up to the next sample time.

Once the adaptive mode is enabled, Adaptive appears as the mode on the main 

display window (Fig. 15). If you press the Display button again, the alternate 

temperature displays along with a timer that counts up from the last sampled time 

(Fig. 16). In this case, the temperature was sampled 5 minutes and 42 seconds ago. If 

the interval is set to 10 minutes, the temperature will be sampled again in 4 minutes 

and 18 seconds.

Setting Adaptive Interval

The sampling interval for the adaptive mode should be set long enough to allow the 

subject and plate to stabilize before the temperature is sampled. The default sampling 

rate is 3 minutes. 
1.  Press the 

Config

 button on the 

ATC2000

 to access the Configuration menu. 

Press the 

Config

 button again until the Adaptive Mode Enable displays.

  

Fig. 17—Using the Up/Down buttons, change the sampling interval time.

2.  Press the 

Up

 or 

Down

 button to change the sampling interval time.

3.  Press the 

Display

 button to save the new parameters or press the 

Config

 button 

to toggle through the rest of the parameters.

Setting Temperature Offset

If desired, you may set temperature offsets for the RTD probe, the thermocouple probe 

and the heater plate. The temperature may be offset by ±5°C. For example, if you set 

the plate offset to 3.0°C, and the actual plate temperature is 34°C, the temperature 

displayed on the 

ATC2000

 will be 37°C. This means that if the set point is 37°C, the
