Cal3300 Temperature Controller Instructions

  1. For all Mini-GASS systems with the CAL3300 Temperature controller, perform the following setup procedures.

    1. Power Up - Apply power to the system and wait for the controller to perform its self test routine. The display will then be alternately flashing "nonE" and "inPt".

    2. Input sensor type - Press and hold * key. Press up key repeatedly to select the "tc K" option for K type thermocouple. Release both keys.

    3. Input unit type - Press the up key once. The display will then be alternately flashing "unit" and "nonE". Press and hold the * key. Press up key repeatedly to select the "OC" unit. Release both keys.

    4. Input setpoint 1 type - Press the up key once. The display will then be alternately flashing "SP1.d" and "nonE". Press and hold the * key. Press up key once to select the output device "SSd". Release both keys.

    5. Save configuration into memory -Press and hold up and down keys simultaneously for 3 seconds. The display will then be alternately flashing the process temperature and "PArK" indicating that no set temperature has been entered.

    6. Input ramp rate and upper set point limit - Press and hold up and down keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to enter the program mode. Release the two keys. The display will then be alternately flashing "tunE" and "oFF". Press and hold the up key until "SPrr"  appears. Press and hold the * key. Press and hold the up key until the display goes up to 90. Release the two keys. Press the up key once. "SPrn" appears. Press and hold the * key. Press the up key once. The display shows "on". release the * key. Press and hold the down key until "LEVL" appears. The display will then be alternately flashing "LEVL" and "1". Press and hold the * key. Press the up key once to move to level 2. Release the two keys. Press and hold the up key until "hi.SC" appears. Press and hold the * key. Press and hold the down key until the display goes from 1200 down to 100. Press and hold up and down keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to exit the program mode.

  1. Configure the low temperature alarm.

    1. Configure SP2 relay as alarm - Press and hold up and down keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to enter the program mode. Release the two keys. The display will then be alternately flashing "tunE" and "oFF". Press the down key once. The display will then be alternately flashing "LEVL" and "1". Press and hold the * key. Press the up key once to move to level 2. Release the two keys. Press and hold the up key until "SP2.A" appears. Press and hold the * key. Press the up key twice. Release the two keys. The display will then be alternately flashing "SP2.A" and "dV.Lo".

    2. Input the alarm differential - Press and hold the down key until "LEVL" appears. Press and hold the * key. Press the down key once to move to level 1. Release the two keys. Press and hold the up key until "Set.2" appears. Press and hold the * key. Press the down key until "-4" appears. Release the two keys.

    3. Input the hysteresis - Press the up key once to move to "bnd.2". Press and hold the * key. Press the down key until the display goes from 2.0 down to 0.1. Release the two keys. Press and hold up and down keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to exit the program mode.

  2. Set the control set point and auto-tune the controller.

    1. Input the control set point temperature - Press and hold the * key. Hold the up key until the display goes from 0 to 70 ( or 5 degrees above your sample dew point)..

    2. Auto-tune the controller - Press and hold up and down keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to enter the program mode. Release the two keys. The display will then be alternately flashing "tunE" and "oFF. Press and hold the * key. Press the up key until "At.SP" appears. Release the two keys. Press and hold up and down keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to exit the program mode. The display will then be alternately flashing "tunE", "At.SP" and the actual process temperature. Allow the controller time to auto-tune. When tuning is complete the display will show only the actual process temperature. This process may take up to an hour.
