Control Sensor Oset and Rail Limits

The control sensor a󰀨ects the reading of the control probe temperature and therefore the actual temperature of the

refrigerator. This should not be adjusted from the original setting unless directed by Helmer Technical Service. The Upper and Lower Rail Limits help control the refrigeration based on the control probe temperature reading and the set

point. These limit values should not be changed from the default setting unless directed by Helmer Technical Service.

NOTICE

Control Sensor O󰀨set and Rail Limits are factory-preset and should not be changed. Contact Helmer T
