This manual is intended for users of the CMP6010 control system. Although it is not intended as a
service manual, the Service menu of the controller and its functions are detailed as a reference for
service personnel.
The manual is presented in a visual format, using representative screen images to guide the user
through each set of instructions. The instructions proceed left-to-right and top-to-bottom, and are
augmented by arrows indicating movement from one step to the next. Text below each graphic
instructs the user in completing tasks, with required button presses indicated by angled brackets
containing the button’s graphic
For users viewing the manual electronically, navigation is simplied by the use of hyperlinks. Section
headings in the table of contents and gure/section cross-references within will take the user to the
relevant page in the manual when clicked or tapped. The user can return to the table of contents by
clicking or tapping the Conviron logo found at the bottom of each page.

PRECAUTIONS
The following symbols are used throughout this manual to draw your attention to important warnings,
guidelines and product information. Please take note of their respective meanings.
Hazard WarningImportant Information
Dangerous Electrical CurrentSlippery Surface
Please note the following precautions before operating this equipment:
• This equipment is only to be operated and maintained by authorized personnel - that
is, personnel who have been trained on the proper operation and/or maintenance of
the equipment and who have read this manual.
• If in doubt about safe operation and/or maintenance of the equipment, contact the
responsible party in your organization immediately.
• Prior to operating, users should conduct a visual inspection of the equipment and
surrounding area by walking around the unit and checking both inside and outside
to ensure no debris or obstacles are present that could pose a safety hazard. If
operators see a potential hazard (e.g. water accumulating on the oor which could be
slippery or an obstruction that would prevent the door from opening/closing properly)
they should take appropriate steps such as alerting service personnel.
• Ensure that no one is using or could activate the room remotely during operation or
maintenance activities.
• When a Schedule is not running, Alarms are disabled! No one other than a single,
designated on-site service technician should be operating the chamber. Altering
output parameters to troubleshoot a chamber while others are handling mechanical
or electrical systems within the chamber, COULD BE HAZARDOUS AND MAY
RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY. As such, manipulation of output parameters must be
performed with either a qualied service technician present or via phone support with
Conviron’s Technical Services group.
January 2016 | 256573R04

Page 14
• Qualied trades-people such as electricians, plumbers, refrigeration mechanics, etc.
should perform all work as required by local codes and regulations.
• Central Management™ (CM) is an optional feature. If CM is being used it becomes
inextricably linked to the use of the Controller and therefore, both the Central
Management manual and the Controller Operators Manual must be read and
understood in their entirety prior to operation.
• Working in a high voltage environment will be required when servicing this
equipment. Do NOT attempt this work unless you have the appropriate knowledge
and experience. Always take appropriate safety precautions.
• The main terminal in the control panel has live voltage unless the external breaker is
OFF. Use extreme caution when working in the control panel to prevent injury.
• The Controller may come equipped with an optional Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS)
such that power will remain live for a period of time even if the power supply is turned
OFF. Use extreme caution when working on the control panel to prevent injury. If you
have any doubts as to whether your unit comes equipped with a UPS, contact Conviron.
• Users should note that water may accumulate on the oor which could be slippery and
pose a safety hazard. Always ensure oors remain dry and wear non-slip footwear.

3.1 Introduction to Programs
A program is a list of timelines, each of which species chamber environmental conditions—
temperature, humidity, and light—for a specic point in time. Each program represents a single
24 hour period and can contain up to 24 timelines. The controller memory can store up to 16
programs. Programs are created and edited via the Edit Program screen, which can be accessed via
the Create and Edit menu items from the Program menu (dependent on whether you are creating a
new program or editing an existing program). Programs are then listed in the Schedule to dene an
experimental protocol (see section 4.0 SCHEDULE MENU).

4.0 SCHEDULE MENU
4.1 Introduction to the Schedule
The schedule is a list of entries, with each entry designating a saved program and the number of
times for that program to run before moving to the next entry listed in the schedule. The CMP6010
controller can store one schedule. The schedule can contain up to eight entries, each of which can
be set for up to 99 repetitions, or set to run continuously (indicated by ∞ on the screen). In addition,
the entire schedule itself can be set for up to 99 repetitions, or set to run continuously.
The Edit Schedule screen uses the same functions as the Edit Program screen with the exception
of the Sort function, which is not necessary for editing the schedule as it is the order of the list that
determines the next program to be run rather than a specic time.

7.0 ALARM TROUBLESHOOTING
The CMP6010 controller is equipped with several different alarms designed to protect equipment from
damage and help ensure experimental integrity.
Controller alarms include:
• Temperature limit
• Humidity limit
• Low water level or door open
• Refrigeration low pressure: 3 different alarm conditions
• Refrigeration high pressure: 3 different alarm conditions
When temperature and refrigeration alarms are triggered, the chamber will automatically shut OFF to
protect core components from damage.
Humidity and low water alarms will trigger the appropriate alarm indicators, but the chamber will
remain ON.
7.1 Alarm State Indication
The CMP6010 Controller uses two warning devices to indicate alarm state. The Alarm button on the
keypad will illuminate red (either ashing or solid depending on alarm state), and the alarm buzzer
will sound. The table below indicates the meaning of each alarm state based on the behavior of the
warning devices.

8.5 Conguring Network Communication
Network settings are input and edited at the Communication Settings screen. Network
communications allow the controller to be connected to a local area network or single computer for
downloading of logged experimental data via le transfer protocol (FTP). The controller can also
be connected to an optional Conviron Central Management™ network, which provides additional
functionality such as downloading experimental data, trend graphs, and alarm notications. For more
information on Central Management, contact Conviron.
The controller can be connected in one of two ways:
• A single computer directly to the controller. This requires a cross-over Ethernet cable connected
to the chamber (or controller) Ethernet port (located at the rear of Adaptis and G1000 chambers).
• Controller connected to network on which computer resides. This requires a straight-through
Ethernet cable connected to the chamber (or controller) Ethernet port.
