Componenti del pannello frontale:

• Display digitale: Shows current temperature and various parameter settings.
• 'S' Button (Set): Utilizzato per immettere e confermare le impostazioni dei parametri.
• Pulsante freccia su: Utilizzato per aumentare i valori o navigare nei menu.
• Pulsante freccia giù: Utilizzato per diminuire i valori o navigare nei menu.
• Pulsante di accensione: Accende o spegne il dispositivo.
• 'Cool' Indicator: Illuminates when the cooling output is active.
• 'Heat' Indicator: Si illumina quando l'uscita di riscaldamento è attiva.

Rear Panel Terminals:

The rear panel typically features screw terminals for electrical connections. While specific labeling may vary, common connections include:

• Potenza in ingresso: For connecting the main power supply to the controller. (Note: Verify the correct operating voltage for your specific unit, as it is not provided in the general product data. Common voltages include 12V, 24V, 110V, or 220V AC/DC.)
• Temperature Sensor Input: Per il collegamento del sensore di temperatura NTC.
• Potenza di riscaldamento: Relay contacts for connecting your heating device.
• Potenza di raffreddamento: Relay contacts for connecting your cooling device.

4. Configurazione e installazione

4.1 Precauzioni di sicurezza

• Scollegare sempre l'alimentazione prima dell'installazione o della manutenzione.
• In caso di dubbi, assicurarsi che tutti i cablaggi siano eseguiti da un professionista qualificato.
• Verificare il corretto volume operativotage of the STC-1000 before connecting power.
• Non esporre il dispositivo all'acqua o a umidità eccessiva.

4.2 Montaggio

The STC-1000 is designed for panel mounting. Cut an appropriately sized opening in your control panel and secure the controller using the provided clips or mounting hardware.

4.3 Cablaggio

Refer to the wiring diagram typically found on the side or top of the device, or in specific product documentation. A general wiring scheme includes:

1. Alimentazione elettrica: Connect the main power source (e.g., 12V/24V/110V/220V AC/DC) to the designated power input terminals.
2. Sensore di temperatura: Connect the NTC temperature sensor to its dedicated input terminals. Ensure the sensor is placed in the environment where temperature needs to be measured.
3. Heating Device: Connect your heating equipment (e.g., heater, heating lamp) to the heating output relay terminals.
4. Cooling Device: Connect your cooling equipment (e.g., fan, compressor) to the cooling output relay terminals.

Important: Double-check all connections for correct polarity and secure fastening to prevent damage or malfunction.

5. Istruzioni per l'uso

5.1 Accensione/spegnimento

• Premere il tasto Pulsante di accensione (⏻) per accendere o spegnere il controller.

5.2 Viewing Current Temperature

• When powered on, the digital display will show the current measured temperature.

5.3 Setting the Target Temperature (Set Point)

1. Premere il tasto 'S' button. The display will flash the current set temperature.
2. Utilizzare il Freccia su (▲) O Freccia giù (▼) buttons to adjust the target temperature to your desired value.
3. Premere il tasto 'S' button again to confirm the setting and exit the setting mode. The display will return to showing the current temperature.

5.4 Automatic Heating/Cooling Control

The STC-1000 automatically switches between heating and cooling modes based on the set temperature and a pre-configured differential (hysteresis). If the measured temperature falls below the set point, the heating output will activate (Heat indicator on). If the measured temperature rises above the set point, the cooling output will activate (Cool indicator on).

6. Manutenzione

• Pulizia: Pulire il dispositivo con un panno morbido e asciutto. Non utilizzare detergenti abrasivi o solventi.
• Cura del sensore: Ensure the temperature sensor is clean and free from debris. Avoid bending or damaging the sensor cable.
• Connessioni: Periodically check all electrical connections to ensure they are secure.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• Il display è vuoto: Check power supply connections. Ensure the device is turned on.
• Lettura della temperatura errata: Check if the sensor is properly connected and not damaged. Ensure the sensor is placed correctly in the environment.
• Heating/Cooling output not activating: Verify the set temperature and current temperature. Check wiring to the heating/cooling device. Ensure the device's power supply is adequate.
• Il display mostra 'HHH' o 'LLL': This usually indicates a sensor error. 'HHH' often means the temperature is too high or the sensor is open-circuited. 'LLL' often means the temperature is too low or the sensor is short-circuited. Check sensor connection and integrity.

8. Suggerimenti per l'utente

• Verifica l'accuratezza: For critical applications, it is recommended to verify the STC-1000's temperature readings against a known accurate thermometer.
• Posizionamento del sensore: Position the temperature sensor away from direct heat sources or drafts to ensure accurate ambient temperature measurement.
• Ventilazione: Ensure adequate ventilation around the controller to prevent overheating, especially if mounted in an enclosed space.
