3.4 Operation and Use
3.4.1 When the controller is powered on, the【(3)display window】will show “PS” and the【(5)display window】will show “V06”. There will be a short alarm, and after 2 seconds, the controller will enter the normal display mode.

3.4.2 Modification of Setting Value

In the normal display mode, press the 【SET】button. The “TIME” and “SV” will flash at the same time. You can change the flashing value using the 【SHIFT】, 【INCREASE】, and 【DECREASE】 buttons. Press the 【SET】 button again to shift to the next value. After finishing the modification, press and hold the 【SET】 button for 1 second to exit the setting mode. In constant value mode, you can continuously press the 【SET】 button to change a set of data and then exit. After a short alarm, the controller will enter the normal display interface and keep the data automatically.
When the controller is running in program mode, press the 【SET】 button. The data of the segment will start flashing. At this time, use the 【INCREASE】 and 【DECREASE】 buttons to change the segment, where you can see the time, temperature, humidity, and illumination. Press the 【SET】 button again to change the data in the present segment. When the cursor returns to the segment value and flashes, modify the next segment value again.
When the controller is running in 【DAY/NIGHT】 mode, press the 【SET】 button, and “DAY” will flash. You can shift to “NIGHT” using the 【INCREASE】 and 【DECREASE】 buttons, and then “NIGHT” will flash. You can press the 【SET】 button to check the setting value and modify the setting value in 【DAY/NIGHT】 mode.
3.4.3 Set Segment Number or Cycles
In the no constant mode (see parameter list -1-U1 for details), when the controller is stopped, press the 【SET】 button for 3 seconds. The 【(1) display window】 will then show “Lc,” and the 【(2) display window】 will display the password number. Change the password number to 3 using the 【INCREASE】 and 【DECREASE】 buttons, and enter the mode of segment and cycle.
In the programmable mode, if the “PRO” prompt flashes, you can set the total segment number of running. Click 【SET】, and the “CYC” prompt will flash. You can then set the total cycle number of running (when the cycle number is 0, the controller will run all the time). After finishing the setting, press the 【SET】 button for 3 seconds to exit, and the parameters will be stored. In the DAY/NIGHT mode, the total segment number cannot be set; only the cycle number can be set.
3.4.4 Start and Stop
To start the controller, press the 【R/S】 button U7 second (see user parameters table -1 for details). The 【(2) display window】 will show the remaining time during operation. When the time is up, the controller will stop and the buzzer will sound, U9  (see user parameters table -1 for details). The 【(2) display window】 will display “End”. Alternatively, to stop the controller, press【R/S】 U7 second for a long time and the 【(2) display window】 will display “OFF”.
In programmable mode, if the total segment number is more than 1, and in the mode of constant temperature and humidity (see parameter table -1-U5 and U6 for details), it is required to set each period of time before starting the operation. Note that starting the operation with a setting time of 0 is not possible.
3.4.5 Reservation Function
If the reservation function AP is enabled (refer to the user parameters table -7 for details), press 【SET】 again to set the reservation time in minutes. Otherwise, exit directly to the normal display interface. After setting the reservation time, press 【R/S】 to start. When the reservation time is counting down, you can enter the parameter table again to modify the reservation time. Or press 【R/S】 to stop the controller, which will automatically reset the reservation time to 0 and make it valid only once.
3.4.6 Fault Prompt
Temperature alarm: If there is an upper temperature deviation alarm, the unit “ºC” will flash quickly. If there is a lower temperature deviation alarm, the unit “ºC” will flash slowly.
Humidity alarm: If there is an upper humidity deviation alarm, the unit “%RH” will flash quickly. If there is a lower humidity deviation alarm, the unit “%RH” will flash slowly. If the display window labeled 【(3)】 shows “—”, it means that either the temperature sensor or the controller is faulty. Please carefully check the temperature sensor and its wiring.
3.4.7 Defrost Function
The defrost function can be turned on either automatically or manually. If you want to turn it on automatically (check the parameters in table-4 for details) and then set the interval time and duration of the defrost cycle. On the other hand, if you want to turn it on manually, click the 【DEFROST】 button in the main interface. Note that the duration of the manual defrosting time still depends on the time set in the parameter table, and the defrost function will end once the delay time has elapsed.
3.4.8 Power-off Memory Function
You can choose whether to enable the power-off memory function by modifying the power-off memory parameters (check “U2” parameters: internal parameters table-1).
3.4.9 Check and Set the Internal Parameters
In the normal display state, press 【SET】 for 3 seconds, and the 【(1) display window】 will display the password prompt “Lc”, and the 【(2) display window】 will display the password value. Input the correct password to enter the setting mode of internal parameters, and then click 【SET】 to modify each parameter. After that, press 【SET】 for 3 seconds, and the buzzer will give a short blast and exit. The parameters will be stored automatically.
Note: All internal parameters have been adjusted during factory testing.
It is forbidden to modify them except for the Sensor Correction parameter.

The circulating fan does not work or has abnormal noise

| 1.   The motor is faulty.
2.   The motor capacitor is faulty.
3.   The wiring board of the controller is faulty.
4.    The blades of the motor fan are damaged.| 1.   Replace the motor.
2.   Replace the motor capacitor.
3.   Replace the wiring board of the controller.
4.     Replace the blades of the motor fan.
The temperature does not rise when the set temperature is higher than the measured temperature| 1. The heater is faulty.| 1. Replace the heater.


Poor cooling after long-term use

| 1.   The instrument’s condenser is too dusty.
2.    There is not enough refrigerant, and it needs to be refilled.| 1. Clean the dust on and below the condenser.
2.   Add refrigerant.
**** No refrigeration or temperature cannot be lowered| 1.   Check whether the compressor is running or damaged.
2.   Check whether the internal fan of the chamber is running or damaged.
3.   The compressor is running normally but there is no cooling effect.
4.   Confusion in instrument parameters.
5.   Poor ventilation in the lower part of the instrument.| 1.   Replace the compressor if it is damaged.
2.   Replace the motor and fan blades if they are damaged.
3.   Check for refrigerant leaks.
4.   Adjust all meter parameters to factory values.
5.    Leave a gap of 10 cm or more at the back and around the instrument for better ventilation.
Temperature overshoots too much| 1.     The    instrument’s    parameter settings are incorrect.| 1. Refer to the instructions and readjust the parameters.


Inconsistent sample culturing effect

| 1. Placing an excessive amount of sample in the work chamber can result in poor uniformity.| 1. Do not place more than 80% of the volume with sample.
