Components:

• Control Unit: Features an LCD display for temperature and time, and buttons for settings.
• Power Socket Unit: Contains two power outlets. One is for the heating device (PID controlled), and the other is for the timed device.
• Temperature Probe: A waterproof sensor for accurate temperature measurement.

Setup and Installation

1. Mounting the Control Unit:

   Use the provided double-sided adhesive pads to securely attach the control unit to a clean, dry surface. Ensure it is placed in a location where the display is easily visible and buttons are accessible.

2. Positioning the Temperature Probe:

   Place the waterproof temperature probe in the environment where temperature needs to be controlled (e.g., terrarium, incubator). Ensure the probe is not directly exposed to heating elements or direct light sources that could affect its readings. The probe can be submerged in water if required.

3. Connecting Devices:
   • Plug your heating device (e.g., ceramic heat emitter, heat lamp) into the socket designated for PID Temperature Heating Control.
   • Plug your timed device (e.g., lighting, humidifier, air pump) into the socket designated for Timer control.
4. Power Connection:

   Plug the main power cord of the KETOTEK KT5000 into a suitable 220VAC power outlet.

Operating Instructions

The KETOTEK KT5000 features a user-friendly interface for setting temperature and timing parameters.

Basic Operation:

• Upon powering on, the display will show the current temperature measured by the probe.
• Use the SET button to enter the setting mode.
• Use the Up and Down arrow buttons to adjust values.
• Press SET again to confirm and move to the next parameter.

Setting Day and Night Temperatures:

The device allows for different temperature settings during day and night cycles over a 24-hour period. This is achieved through its dual-cycle time function.

1. Enter the setting mode by pressing SET.
2. Navigate through the settings until you find the parameters for "Day Temperature" and "Night Temperature".
3. Set the desired temperature for the day period (e.g., 20°C).
4. Set the desired temperature for the night period (e.g., 25°C).
5. Configure the start and end times for the day and night cycles (e.g., Day: 8:00 to 18:00; Night: 18:00 to 8:00 the next day). The device will automatically cycle these settings daily.

Timer Function:

The second output socket is controlled by a timer function. This allows you to schedule when an attached device turns on and off.

1. Access the timer settings via the SET menu.
2. Set the desired ON time and OFF time for the timed output.
3. Confirm settings to activate the timer.

Advanced Functions:

• High Temperature Alarm: Set a maximum temperature threshold. If the temperature exceeds this, an alarm will activate.
• Temperature Calibration: Adjust the temperature reading to match an external reference thermometer for increased accuracy.
• Reset Function: Restore the device to factory default settings.
• Power-off Data Record: The device retains your settings even after a power outage.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Disconnect the device from power before cleaning. Wipe the control unit and power socket unit with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Probe Care: The temperature probe is waterproof and can be cleaned with water. Ensure no damage occurs to the probe cable.
• Storage: If storing the device for an extended period, unplug it and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
