Use buttons Pfeil-L and Pfeil-R to switch between channels 1 to 20. Carry out the following steps for all channels which have a thermocouple connected to them:

  1. Assign an abbreviation (max. five characters) and a channel name (max. 20 characters).
  2. Select the correct thermocouple type. The following types are possible B, E, J, K, N, R, S and T.
  3. Activate the channel.
  4. Activate Warning Output and Error Output (if the PowerView3 is intended to switch the digital outputs when temperature thresholds are exceeded).
  5. Assign the channel to one or several groups.
  6. Configure the upper and lower warning thresholds and the upper shutdown threshold:

    With 3723_minus1 and 3723_plus1 in steps of 1 °C or 1 °F

    With 3724_minus20 and 3724_plus20 in steps of 20 °C or 20 °F

     

    Minimum separation of threshold values

    The threshold values Low Temp Warning, High Temp. Warning and High Temp. Shutdown must each be separated by at least 10 °C (18 °F).

Further information can be found in the PowerView3 operating manual.
