Configuration
A HEPA filter replacement timer can be set for a specific amount of time,
from 1 to 12 months of actual unit running time. Time will not accrue
when the unit is turned off. The default time is 6 months. When the
allotted time has run out, REPLACE HEPA appears in the display and the
visual alarm flashes. To set the reminder, use the following procedure.
1. Press the Mode key until the Config indicator lights.
2. Press the right arrow until REPL HEPA XX is displayed.
3. Press the up/down arrow to choose the number of months desired.
4. Press Enter to save the number.
5. Press the Mode key to return to Run Mode or right/left to go to
next/previous parameter.
Note After the reminder has been set, check the allotted time remaining by
going to Config Mode, then pressing the right arrow until NEW HEPA
XXX displays. This number is the remaining days before the filter
replacement time specified runs out. For example, if 12 months was chosen
in the REPL HEPA XX message screen, the NEW HEPA number would
be 365 days.

Configuration
The low temp alarm limit (tracking alarm) is the deviation from the
temperature setpoint, which will cause a low temp alarm. The low temp
alarm is variable from 0.5° below setpoint to 5.0° below setpoint.  The
factory setting is 1.0° below setpoint. A minus sign (-) in the display
indicates that the alarm setting is below the setpoint.
1. Press the Mode key until the Config indicator lights.
2. Press the right arrow until Temp LO -X.X  is displayed in the message
center.
3. Press the up/down arrow to change the low temp alarm limit.
4. Press Enter to save the low temp alarm limit.
5. Press the Mode key to return to Run mode or right/left to go to
next/previous parameter.
The high temp alarm limit (tracking alarm) is the deviation from the
temperature setpoint that will cause a high temp alarm. It should be noted
that this varies from the Overtemp setpoint, in that the Overtemp setpoint
configures an independent system that monitors temperature and shuts
down the system heaters if necessary.  The high temp alarm limit is simply
set to enable an audible and visual alarm that notifies the user of a
problem.  The high temp alarm is variable from 0.5° above setpoint to 5.0°
above setpoint.  The factory setting is 1.0° above setpoint.
1. Press the Mode key until the Config indicator lights.
2. Press the right arrow until Temp Hi X.X  is displayed in the message
center.
3. Press the up/down arrow to change the high temp alarm limit.
4. Press Enter to save the high temp alarm limit.
5. Press the Mode key to return to Run Mode or right/left to go to
next/previous parameter.
