INTRODUCTION
This INTRODUCTION section provides an overview of the Watlow 1500 controller. The microprocessor based controller is capable of measuring, displaying and controlling temperature and humidity from a variety of inputs.
The controller is easy to use. Control functions, alarm settings and other parameters are easily entered through the front keypad. Limited data can be protected from unauthorized changes with its guarded access mode security system. Battery back-up protects against data loss during AC power outages.
In this application the controller has been factory configured to control temperature and humidity conditions in your Despatch chamber. Under normal conditions, you should not have to reprogram this controller. We have, however, included reprogramming instructions in this manual to help guide you through that process if it should become necessary.
NOTE: Your control has already been configured at Despatch. Use this manual as a guide to typical settings.
CAUTION: Before making changes to your control, consult with Despatch Industries Product Service at 1-800-473-7373.

Profile Mode
This section of the manual provides details on programming the Watlow 1500 in the Change Data (CHG DATA) mode, the Change Parameters (CHG PARA) mode and Guarded Access. Refer to the Watlow 1500 manual for more details.
Change Data Mode
When the Watlow CHG DATA LED is lit, the processor is in the change data mode. While in this mode, the programming steps can be entered into the processor.
There are three step types:
C Set Point (SP) C Jump Loop (JL) C Wait (WT)
Halt Conditions
The Watlow 1500 can HALT in three ways, when the:
C processor encounters a Blank Step in the program, C RUN/HALT key is pressed while the program is
running,
C remote hold input is shorted.
While in the HALT condition, the Watlow 1500 actively maintains set points and event output conditions which existed at the time the processor was halted.
If you do not want the hot or humid conditions to be retained at the end of a programmed halt, add a step just before the Blank Step [End of Program] to establish stand-by set points near ambient with all Event Outputs OFF.
Page 14 Despatch/Watlow 1500 Control Instruction Manual
Blank Step
Any unprogrammed step is first a Blank Step before information entered makes it a Set Point, Jump Loop or Wait Step.
In normal programming, only the last step in the program remains a Blank Step. A Blank Step halts the processor. If, however, the RECYCLE option was selected in the CHG PARA mode, the program will return to Step #01 and repeat.
When programming a HAST chamber, a Blank Step is not used. A Jump Step is used to jump over blank steps to ensure the program will not stop until reaching steps 47-51 required for cooldown and shutdown.
Set Point Step
The existing start conditions for each step depend upon the programmed step previously performed by the Watlow 1500. The desired end conditions for each step are also programmed.
During any set point step, the Watlow 1500 follows a linear path between the existing start conditions and the desired end conditions. When programming set points in the Watlow 1500, it is important to keep track of the ramping conditions at the start of a step and at the end of a step.
To clear a step:
1. Place the controller in halt by pressing the RUN/HALT key until RUN/HALT LED is lit.
2. Place the controller in the desired step to be cleared.
3. Press the CLEAR pushbutton.

Wait Steps
The Wait (WT) submode allows the Watlow 1500 to wait for:
C Channel 1 and/or Channel 2 actual process inputs, C the real time of day (not elapsed time as in set point
steps).
You can wait for one or two of these conditions, or all of them. If you don't need one wait condition, just press the FCTN key and the next Wait prompt will appear. By doing this the particular wait function will remain blank and be ignored.

WH, WM, WS
When waiting for Time, program all three units (HR-MN-SC). If you program only 53 for minutes, but enter nothing for Hours or Seconds, the programmed time will be 53 minutes after midnight, 00 53 00.
If you press ENTER when WH, WM or WS is shown, you could end up waiting for midnight when you wanted wait for time ignored.2
A Wait Step maintains the same set points and event output conditions that existed at the end of the previous step. To establish new set point values, place a short (1 second) step containing the conditions you wish to achieve immediately before the Wait Step.
Page 20 Despatch/Watlow 1500 Control Instruction Manual
Wait Steps (Cont.)
The Wait Step does not allow the linear ramping path to reach the new conditions, as a Set Point Step does. To optimize control (reduce the overshoot and undershoot), a Wait Step uses the PID Parameters to satisfy the wait condition. In other words, select the step type which best matches your needs.
Next Step
The Next step (NX) step is used to select the program step. After the final prompt in each of the step types (SP, JL or WT), pressing ENTER advances the processor to NX. At the same time the STEP display will advance by one.
Pressing ENTER again will bring up SP, JL or WT if the next step has no programmed information. If there is data in the subsequent step, the processor will move to the first prompt in that submode.
If you want a different step from NX, select the number of the step you want in the DATA display with the > key and ? key, then press ENTER. Again, the processor will move to one of the three step types if the step is blank, or to the first prompt in the step type loop: S1, JS or W1.
Pressing FCTN at NX instead of ENTER will send the processor back to the initial prompt in the current step.
Recycle Option
You may request that your program repeat indefinitely by selecting RC=1 in the GA=5 area of the CHG PARA mode.
With the Recycle option active, you may expect to see continuous activity as the program sequence repeats. However, if your Step #1 is programmed as a Wait Step, the processor will be waiting for a time or actual condition and no action will be taking place.

Ecosphere Sample Program
The sample program on the following page is provided to demonstrate the function of the unit. It is pre-programmed in the factory and available for you to run upon installation of your chamber. If the program has been cleared somehow, you may wish to re-enter it as programming practice.
Table 9 Despatch Sample Program
Step Description
1 Set points of 25EC and 95% RH entered for S1 and S2. Event 1.1 is on. This
enables the humidity control system. This step is held for 10 minutes so that the humidity system has sufficient time to fill up with water.
2
3 No change in set points (S1 or S2) or events (E1 or E2). Therefore, control will act
4
S1 is changed to 40EC. S2, E1 and E2 are left blank by pressing the FCTN key when those functions are displayed. In a set point step, blank data defaults to previous settings, so S2 = 95, E1 = 0001, and E2 = 0000. Since Step #1 was the previous step, by doing this if you wished to change S2 to 85% throughout the program you only have to change it on Step #1. The step duration is 30 minutes. Since the previous set point was 25E, the process set point will be ramped continu­ously from 25E to 40E over the 30 minute span.
to hold 40EC and 95% for 30 minutes.
S1 is set back to 25EC. It is ramped from 40EC over 30 minute period. 5 Again, a hold for 30 minutes. 6 S1 is changed to -10EC. This is ramped over a 1 second period so it is
essentially a step change. Note Event 1.1 is turned off. To protect the
equipment, humidity control generally needs to be disabled when below
freezing. 7 The control is set to wait for the CH-1 process to reach -8. All other waits
are blank so they will be ignored. Do not type zeros into wait functions that
are to be ignored. This is caused by pressing the ENTER key instead of the
FCTN key when you scroll past the function you wish to ignore. The above
is the most typical problem encountered in a wait-for-step. 8 Another hold for 30 minutes. 9 This is a jump to Step #2. Steps 2-8 will be repeated.
10 Set points are changed to 25EC and 60%, a normal condition, before
program is ended.
11
Is a blank step (SP when viewed in CHG DATA mode). Program execution
will end here.

Warm/Cold Start
1. A “Warm” start will save all programmed information in the memory.
2. A “Cold” start is a “Clean” startup condition. All MEMORY IS DELETED and the controller will return to default settings.
3. Upon completion of “Cold” start, return the control to “Warm” start, otherwise the control will return to the default settings after each power loss.
4. DIP Switch #6 determines a warm or cold start. Your controller leaves the factory programmed for a warm start.
