TROUBLESHOOTING
Issue Possible Cause Solution
No
power
Poor connection Check the power cable connection.
ERROR displays
instead of a temperature
Poor probe connection Disconnect and properly re-connect the probes
to the ATC2000 .
Animal can
-
not reach set temperature
Insufficient heating
power
The maximum power output on the heating
device is 30W. In most situations, the power is
sufficient to keep the animal warm up to 40°C.
To minimize heating loss, insulate the bottom
of heating plate and cover the animal with a
small blanket to keep it warm.
Alarm is sounding
Poor transfer of heat
from the heating plate to
the animal. (The plate is
hot, but the animal has
not warmed up.) You may
use these solutions inde-
pendently or together to
solve this issue.
Improve the thermal coupling from the heating
plate to the animal. Place a heat-conductive,
conformal material (like cotton wadding) be-
tween the animal and the plate.
Adjust the PID parameter to slow the plate
heating process. To do this, decrease the inte-
gral (I) value.
Poor connection to heat-
ing plate and probe
Disconnect both the heating plate and probe
and reinsert them properly.
