5. WIRING DIAGR AM
RELAY
- Connect the power phase (electricity transmission network) to yellow wire (common of thermostat
relay).
5.4.1. For current loads lower than 16(8) A
- Connect load directly to blue wireof the thermostat;
- Connect the RC suppressor filter in parallel with the load.
5.4.2. For current loads higher than 16(8) A
- Connect the breaker switch;
- To identify the breaker switch terminals, see the manufacturer's instructions;
- Connect one of the coil terminals (A1) of the breaker to blue wire of the thermostat and the other
terminal (A2 of the contactor) to the network's neutral;
- Connect the RC suppressor filter in parallel with coil of the breaker, ie, connect a cable in each of the
coil terminals.
NOTE: Typically, the coil terminals are identified as "A1 and A2".
5.5 Recommendations of standards NBR5410 and IEC60364
1- Install power surge protectors at the thermostat power supply;
2- Install transient suppressors (RC suppressor filter) in parallel with the loads to increase the life of
the relays;
3- Sensor cables can be together, but not in the same conduit through which the electrical power
supply of the thermostat and/or loads go through.

b) Remove the side latches: for this, press the central elliptical part (with the Full Gauge Controls logo)
and slide the latch backward;
c) Insert the thermostat in the 61mm housing socket, from the outside in;
d) Reinstall the latches, to fix the thermostat in the housing;
e) Do the electrical wiring as described above;
f) Set the parameters as described in Chapter 7.
7. SET POINT AND PARAMETER SETTING
Signalling:
RELAY - Turned on NO contact;
- Detached sensor or temperature out of the specified range;
- Instrument working normally;
- output OFF.RELAY manually
7.1 - Set point setti ng (contr ol temperature )
Set point , or control temperature, is the right temperature to keep for a controlled
environment, ie the temperature at which the output will be disconnected.
a)Press key for 10 sec. and will appear on display: release the key;
b)After 10 seconds, the currently set control temperature will appear;
c)Press to modify the value:
NOTE 1: For each stroke of the , key, the value increases 0.1°C until the end of the s cale
(105°C) or to the maximum limit specified in the parameter setting .
Then, the value returns to the beginning of the scale (- 50°C) or to the minimum limit specified in
the parameter setting . See the following parameter setting;
NOTE 2: Keeping the key pressed, the value increment on display is accelerated.
d)After setting the control temperature, wait 4 sec. and the value will be recorded.

7.2.2 Parameter description
Follow the description of the graph and previous table.
Mode of operation:
Determines the mode of operation according to the purpose of the installation:
0 = cooling 1 = heating
Temperature differential (hysteresis):
It is the value of the difference in temperature to reactivate the "Relay" control output.
In other words, the difference between the Set point temperature and the temperature at which
the thermostat relay will be reactivated.
The difference will be:
*Refrigeration (Operation mode ="0"): For a temperature higher than that of the Set point
: :The relay on when the temperature is higher than + and off when less than .
*Heating (Operation mode ="1"): For a temperature lower than that of the set point :
the relay on when the temperature is lower than - and off when higher than .
Example (Heating): If you want to turn on the output with 30°C and turn off at 35°C. In this case, adjust
the with "1", the Set Point with 35.0 and hysteresis with 05.0.
NOTE: The setting of a very small hysteresis results in high frequency in the thermostat relay on/off
cycles and consequently of the driven load, which may shorten the service life of these components.
Minimum delay to turn on the output:
This determines the minimum time during which the output will be off. The counting of the time begins
when the output is turned off. If the output is off and you need to turn it back on right away, the relay will
be triggered only after the end of the timing adjusted to the delay.
The goal is to avoid consecutive restarts of output control.
Offset:
It allows to compensate deviations in the temperature reading. Example: when changing or altering
the length of the sensor cables, it is suggested to take a detour to obtain a better response for the
control in question.
NOTE: In order to correct the deviation of the sensor reading, it is necessary to use a standard
thermometer, preferably calibrated by an approved laboratory. The driver sensor is placed alongside
the standard sensor for a few minutes for the reading to stabilize. Then, based on the reading
difference between the sensors, set the offset value in the Off Set function.
Lower limit of the set point*:
Determines minimum adjustment temperature for the set point.
Upper limit of the Set point*:
Determines maximum adjustment temperature for the set point.
NOTE 1*: Together, parameters and limit the thermostat control range. This scale
restriction is intended to protect the system and also safety of the application avoiding, for example, be
adjusted temperatures outside the tolerated range.
Manual output disable:
Press for 1 second. In the Off state, the display shows and the temperature alternately.
For this operation to be avaliable, the parameter must be set as "1".
7.2.3 Entering the access code
The parameters setting (except set point) is protected by an access code .
To access with the code and release the setting of parameters:
a)Keep the key pressed for 2 seconds: the display will show the message ; release the
key ;
b)After 2 seconds will show on display;
c)Press the key until appears on display.
NOTE: This operation must be performed within 4 seconds, otherwise the display will show the room
temperature. In this case, restart the procedure.
7.2.4 Setting the parameters
After entering the access code, in a maximum of 15 seconds:
a)Press the key as many times as necessary to select the desired parameter: OP, dF, dL,
OF, Lo, Hi or MA. See the parameter description in the item 7.2.2;
b)After 2 seconds, the currently set value for the selected parameter will appear;
c)Press the key as many times as necessary to obtain the desired value for the parameter;
d)Wait 4 sec. and the value will be recorded. The display will return to normal operation,
showing the room temperature;
e)Do the same for the setting of all parameters.
NOTE: After entering the access code, be careful not to leave the key idle (not pressed)
for more than 15 seconds between the alteration of one parameter and another. If this happens,
will appear and access to settings will be automatically blocked, requiring you to enter the
023 code again to make alterations.
8. CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES
Case 1: Configuring the TIC-17C for initial fermentation or maturation of an artisanal brewer, where
the temperature should be between 17 º C (off) and 20 º C (on).
Case 2: Configuring the TIC-17C, used in a cold chamber to maintain the temperature between 6
