PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
The SMMC-3 program has been structured into 6 levels; within
each of these levels are further degrees of selection. Each
programming step is clearly described on the LCD, and easily
adjusted by the “UP”, “DOWN”, and “SET” buttons.
During programming:
· All regular operating functions of the SMMC-3 are
suspended.
· If a button is not pressed for approximately 90
seconds, the program will return to normal
operation, saving programming changes made up to
the point exited.
· Pressing the BACK button results in an exit from
the programming sequence, with the changes made
up to that point saved.
Resetting to Factory Conditions
When the SMMC-3 is first energized, and during the time the initial
LCD display (SMMC Ver. X.X) screen shows push the UP and
DOWN buttons simultaneously to access the option to revert to
factory set conditions. Use the UP or DOWN button to select “yes”
or “no”; the program accepts the selection and returns to normal
operation.
To begin programming the SMMC-3 hold the SET button down for
5 seconds. The display will start in program level 1. To move to
other levels use the UP or DOWN buttons.
The default temperature units setting is °F.
To move to the next level use the UP or DOWN buttons.
Press the SET button to select the temperature display units.
Pressing UP selects Degrees C.
Pressing DOWN selects Degrees F.
After pressing the UP or DOWN button, the program automatically
accepts the selection and advances to the next program level.
