Technical Guide: Unit Conversion (℃/℉) on TC3-401T Temperature Controller

Introduction:

For engineers and technicians working across global markets, the ability to switch between Celsius (℃) and Fahrenheit (℉) is a fundamental requirement. At Beijing Strong Electric, we prioritize precision and user-friendly operation. This guide provides a direct walkthrough on how to modify the unit settings on the TC3-401T series.

Quick Setup Steps (The 'LCK 190' Method)

If you prefer a text-based guide, follow these steps to unlock the hidden parameter menu:

1. Enter Configuration Mode:Press and hold the [SET/TEMP] button for approximately 3 seconds until the parameter code appears on the display.

2. Unlock the Parameters (LCK):Navigate to the LCK parameter. Using the Up/Down arrows, change the value to 190. This code is essential to prevent accidental modification of critical system settings.

3. Access Unit Settings (CF):Scroll through the menu until you see CF.

• Set to 0: For Celsius (℃)
  
• Set to 1: For Fahrenheit (℉)
  

4. Confirm and Exit:Long press the [SET/TEMP] button to save. The controller will restart its display with the new units applied.

Beijing Strong Electric’s Insight: Why the Lock Code Matters

From an industrial perspective, the 'LCK 190' barrier is a design choice that balances accessibility with operational safety. In high-stakes manufacturing environments, accidental unit switching can lead to catastrophic thermal errors. We recommend that unit conversion only be performed during initial machine commissioning or by authorized maintenance personnel.
