In normal display state, long press this key to turn on the defrosting function manually.
Key:| In normal display state, click or long press this key to start or stop the operation of the controller.

Instructions of operation:

1. When the controller is powered on,，【（3）Display window】 shows “TH”，【（5）Display window】 shows“V01”, the buzzer gives a short beep. After about 2 seconds, it will enter the normal display state.

2. The modification of setting values In normal display state, click 【setting】 key， the two identifiers, “TIME” and “SV” flash at the same time. At this time, the value of the number flashed by the cursor can be modified by 【shift】, 【increase】, 【decrease】 keys, and click 【setting】 key again to switch to the next group of values. After modification, long press the 【setting】 key for 1 second to exit the setting state, or in the fixed mode, continuously click the 【setting】 key and modify a group of data and exit. The buzzer will give a short beep to enter the normal display interface, and the parameters will be saved automatically. When the controller is running in the program mode, click the【 setting】 key, and the value of segments starts to flash. At this time, you can view the setting values of time, temperature, humidity and illuminance under the corresponding number of segments by modifying the value of segments with the 【increase】, 【decrease】 keys. And then click the 【setting】 key again to modify the setting parameters one by one in the present segment. When the cursor returns to the value of segments and flashes, modify the value of segments again to modify the next segment. When the controller is running in the 【DAY /NIGHT】 mode, click the 【setting】 key, and the “DAY” identifier will flash. Through the 【increase】, 【decrease】 keys, it can be switched, and the “NIGHT” identifier flashes, to view the setting parameters under the day and night. Click the 【setting】 key to modify the setting parameters in the day or night mode.

3. To set the number of segments or cycle In the non-fixed value mode (see parameter table-1-u1 for details), when the controller stops running, long press the 【setting】 key for 3 seconds, the 【(1) display window】 displays the “LC” prompt, and the 【(2) display window】 displays the password. Modify the password to 3 through the 【increase】, 【decrease】 keys to enter the cycle and segment number settings. In the program mode, if the “PRO” prompt flashes, you can set the total operation sections; when you click the 【setting】 key, and the “CYC” prompt flashes, you can set the total operation cycles (when the number of cycles is set to 0, the controller always runs). After setting, long press the 【setting】 key for 3 seconds to exit the setting and the parameters will be saved automatically. In the day and night mode, there is no total operation sections, only the cycle can be set.

4. ．Start and stop
   Long press the 【R / S】 key U7 (see user parameter TABLE-1 for details) seconds to start the the controller, and the remaining running time will be displayed in 【(2) display window】. When the operation time is over, the controller will stop working, and the buzzer will beep u9 (see user parameter TABLE-1 for details) seconds.【(2) display window】 will display “End”, or long press 【R / S】 key U7 seconds to stop the controller working and 【(2) display window】 will display “oFF”. When the controller is running in program mode and the total number of segments is greater than 1, if the constant temperature and humidity condition (see parameter table-1-u5, U6 for details) is not on, it is necessary to set each segment of time before starting the controller. When the time is all set to 0, the start will fail.

5. Reservation function
   When the value of the reservation function AP (see the user parameter table-7) is set to 1, click the 【setting】 key again to set the reservation time, and the unit is minutes. Otherwise, it will directly exit the normal display interface. After the reservation time setting, it is needed to click the 【R / S】 key to start the machine. In the reservation timing, you can enter the parameter table again to modify the reservation time, or click the 【R / S】 key to stop the controller, and the setting time of running the machine is automatically cleared, which is only valid once.

6. The memory function for power-down

By modifying the parameter of power down memory (see “U2” parameter: internal parameter TABLE-1), you can select whether there is memory function for power- down.

 Instructions for the intelligent supplement device of CO2

1. Monitor and adjust CO2 levels at any time. The resolution is 0.1%. ( When the new CO2 device changes from a low-temperature use to a high one, the display value of the CO2 device may rise for the reason that there is a small amount of glass glue in the incubator but it will automatically become normal for some time. To solve the rising problem, open the door of the incubator for 5 seconds, then close the door.
2. Instrument operation：
3. Introduction for setting symbols: AL1 represents the upper limit value(this device is set to zero); AL2 represents the settings value( the modified value of CO2 concentration ); AH1 is the upper limit value that the relay outputs difference value; AH2 is the setting value that the relay outputs difference value (AH1, AH2 have been set up when leaving factory, needing no change).
4. Control example: a certain system control technics requires: The control concentration should be 5%.

  *  Under the condition that instrument PV displays the measured value, when pressing SET button, the instrument displays: AL1, and then pressing the SET button, the instrument displays (AL1) a parameter, by pressing increase or decrease button to change it to 0%.
  *  After the AL1 parameter has set, when pressing the SET button, the instrument displays AL2. Then press the SET button, and the instrument displays (AL2) a parameter, by pressing increase or decrease button to change it to 5%.
  *  After the AL2 parameter has set, when pressing the SET button, the instrument displays AH1. Then press the SET button, and the instrument displays (AH1) a parameter, by pressing increase or decrease button to change it to 0.01%.
  * Continue to press the SET button, and the instrument displays AH2. Then press SET button, and the instrument displays (AH2) a parameter, by pressing increase or decrease button to change it to 0.01%. After setting, press the reset button to return to the instrument to display the measured values.
