  • How to measure the actual temperature at your crystal

    If you wish to know the temperature at your crystal you can use a thermocouple wire plugged into the back of the X-stream (ANAFAZE) controller. There is a little blue connector that the blue connector on the thermocouple wire plugs into. Then you need to set up a "loop" on the controller.
    • Use the YES/UP and NO/DOWN arrows to move to loop number 04.
    • Push the ENTER, "ALARM ACK" and "CHNG SP" buttons in sequence.
    • Answer NO to Setup Global Parameters?
    • Answer YES to Setup Loop Inputs?
    • Answer YES to Input type?
      • Use YES/UP button until it says: K T/C
      • Push ENTER
    • Answer NO to Loop Name? unless you wish to give it a different name from "04" (TC maybe?)
    • Answer YES to Input Units?
      • Use YES/UP button until it says: oC
      • Push ENTER
    • Answer YES to Input Reading Offset?
      • Use YES/UP button until it says: 0oC (unless you have calibrated the thermocouple and know that it should be something other than 0).
      • Push ENTER
    • Push BACK to get Setup Global Parameters? prompt
    • Push BACK again to return to loop display
