Working with the PTE-FCN module
1. Power Supply: Use the supplied bipolar cord to take 110VAC from
the PTE-100-C PRO’s “Out 4” auxiliary output into the PTE-FCN’s
power input.
2. Ground: Use the supplied yellow/green cord to connect the yellow
GROUND tap in the PTE-FCN module to the main unit’s chassis.
3. BUS-PTE: Link the main unit and the PTE-FCN module by connect-
ing the supplied communications cable to their respective BUS-PTE
connectors. This will provide the necessary phase angle reference
to the PTE-FCN module.
4. Turn the main unit on; the PTE-FCN module will turn itself on
automatically.
Adjusting the LCD screen’s contrast
Press the adjustment knob for 3 seconds to enter the LCD contrast adjust-
ment mode; then, rotate the knob to adapt the contrast to the surrounding
light conditions. To return to the normal adjustment mode, press the knob
again for 3 seconds and release it. This display will automatically compen-
sate the effect of small temperature variations in the contrast before you
need to readjust it again. The PTE-100-C PRO ‘remembers’ the LCD’s con-
trast adjustment from one work session to the next.
