IMPORTANT: All System 350 Controls are
designed for use only as
operating controls. Where an
operating control failure would
result in personal injury and/or
loss of property, it is the
responsibility of the installer to
add devices (safety, limit controls)
that protect against, or systems
(alarm, supervisory systems) that
warn of, control failure.
Differential Adjustment
Differential is defined as the change in sensor
temperature between energization and deenergization of the relay. Adjustment of the A350A/B
differential is made using the potentiometer marked
DIFF. See Figure 2 for its location. Refer to Table 5 for
adjustment ranges.

With Heating mode selected, the differential is below
setpoint. The relay and LED indicator will de-energize
as the temperature rises to the setpoint. As the
temperature drops to the setpoint minus the differential
setting, the relay will energize and the LED illuminates.
Refer to Figure 6.
With Cooling mode selected, the differential is above
setpoint. The relay and LED indicator will de-energize
as the temperature drops to setpoint. As the
temperature rises to the setpoint plus differential
setting, the relay will energize and the LED illuminates.
As shipped from the factory, the heating/cooling
jumper blocks are installed in the horizontal (cooling)
position. See Figure 2.

djustments
A
Follow this procedure to set up the A350A/B for the
desired operation.
1. Remove the A350 cover by loosening the
four captive cover screws.
2. Set the heating/cooling jumper blocks to the
desired mode of operation. Position the jumper
blocks vertically for heating or horizontally for
cooling. (See Figure 2.)
IMPORTANT: Verify that the heating/cooling
jumper blocks are in the proper
position before powering the
System 350 modules. If the
jumper blocks on the control or
staging modules are installed in
the wrong position, the device
will activate the relay in response
to the opposite signal. The
heating or cooling equipment will
remain energized until the error
is corrected.
3. Adjust the differential potentiometer (DIFF) on the
A350 as needed. (Figure 6 is an example of a
multistage application.) The stage module’s offset
and differential can be set independently.

4. Replace the cover, and secure in place with the
four captive screws. Move the setpoint dial to the
desired position.
Note: The A350A/B setpoint is factory calibrated at
midscale to a tolerance of +/- 1F° (0.6C°).
Setpoint tolerance at the extreme ends of the
setpoint ranges in relation to the printed scale
can be +/- 3F° (1.7C°). The D350 Display
Module is unaffected by this tolerance shift.
Use the D350 for the most accurate setpoint
selection.
heckout Procedure
C
Follow this procedure to verify that the A350A/B is
connected and functioning properly.
1. Make sure installation and wiring connections are
according to job specifications before applying
power. (Refer to Figure 6 for an example of a
multistage application.)
2. Make the necessary adjustments and electrical
connections.
3. Put the system in operation and observe at least
three complete operating cycles before leaving the
installation.
roubleshooting
T
If the control system does not function properly, verify
that the proper mode is selected on each module
(Heat/Cool, Direct Acting/Reverse Acting). Proceed as
follows to determine the cause of the problem:
1. Make sure proper voltage is applied to the A350
control.
a. Connect a digital voltmeter (DVM) between
the 24V and COM terminals located on the
control’s left side terminal block (See Figure 2.)
If an external transformer is used, select AC
volts on the DVM and verify that the voltage is
between 20 and 30 VAC.
If a Y350R Power Module is used, select DC
volts on the DVM and verify that the voltage is
between 16 and 38 VDC.
b. If the DVM reading is within the indicated
voltage range, proceed to Step 2.
c. If the DVM reading is not within the indicated
voltage range, correct the wiring, replace the
Y350R, or replace the external transformer.
8 System 350 A350A/B Electronic Temperature Control Product/Technical Bulletin
2. Check temperature sensor for proper resistance.
a. Take an accurate, independent temperature
reading at the sensor location.
b. Disconnect the sensor from the control. Using
an ohmmeter, measure the resistance across
the two sensor leads. Consult Figure 7 to
verify sensor conformance.

c. If the resistance varies substantially from the
optimal resistance for that temperature, the
sensor or wiring must be replaced.
Note: The sensor reading indicated by the D350 may
differ from thermometer readings due to sensor
tolerances, time constants, accuracy of
thermometer, and other factors.
3. Check the A350 for proper operation.
Note: Steps 1 and 2 must be performed first.
a. Adjust the setpoint dial to at least 40°F (22°C)
below the sensor temperature determined in
Step 2.
b. Increase setpoint by slowly turning the dial
until the control relay and LED turn On and
Off.
c. If the relay does not perform as indicated in
Table 4, replace the A350.
