Athena Technologies 16C ユーザーズマニュアル

Introduction

Precautions

Congratulations on your purchase of an Athena Series 16C

Temperature/Process Controller. It is designed for ease of

use and reliability wherever accurate control is required.
After following the instructions for installation, simply

step through and set your operating parameters using the

controller’s easy menu system. The instrument may then be

automatically or manually tuned to your process for optimum

setpoint control.

A Quick Setup Reference Card is on page 5 and also attached

as a tear-off card to the back of the instruction manual for

experienced users of PID controllers.
As you look through this manual, you will notice blue

italicized text appearing in the margins and adjacent to

operating information. These notes impart important informa-

tion about the controller and may answer questions you may

have about its setup or operation. If you still have questions

or require any assistance, please contact your Athena repre-

sentative or call technical support at 1-800-782-6776. Outside

the USA, please call 610-828-2490.

After unpacking, inspect the instrument for any physical

damage that may have occurred in shipping. Save all packing

materials and report any damage to the carrier immediately.
