can anyone tell me a way to run a system with a freeze pack in it without the computer so i can do so load testing can i just hook up a computer start botton to it and run it like that

You need to connect a psu to the controller's molex.
To start the psu you need to connect its (green if I remember correct) wire with a black one.
Basically the controller needs to "see" a voltage of 5V on its molex plug so that it thinks the pc is on, and the controller itself stays on. The voltage value is not so critical anything bettween 4-12V will do the job. For example you could use a battery pack.
DO NO FORGET, POLARITY (+ -) OF THE VOLTAGE MATTERS!!
Double check before you do anything. Ask if you are not sure about something.

Regards!

I attach the front panel dimensions for the controller.
The latest blue lcds have a slightly smaller bezel. These are the dimensions for this lcd to fit OK

John the drawing is wrong... instead of 7.5mm it should have been 6.5mm... was wondering why the cad kept coming out wrong -_-;

I'm sorry it probably says somewhere in this thread already, but how many temperature sensors does this read and to what temperature?

[tim-]

it's just one probe, and it reads down to -50 for sure (i've tried). I also remember that someone had this controller on a ~-60*c range rotary unit and the controller didn't show below -54*C.. think it was piotres.

I can vouch for that, I've had my NL11F down to -59°C unloaded and the Freeze pack stopped at -54°C.
That's ok tho, how often doe's any useful SS run below -50°C odd.

I'm sure it's in the thread somewhere...but can't seem to find it right now....what's the price? Also, can you ship via USPS priority to an APO address? Thanks!

usps is an american postal company, not located in greece, and last time i talked to unseen he was moving to ireland.

send him a pm or gsmaster, ups/fedex or something should be possible to use.

[kayl]

unseen these the same version as the old ones, or we got updates to these babies?

[tim-]

kayl: i got one out of this batch and it's the same version a I assume. It's a tad different color of the components (relays) but otherwise, the menus, functions, dimensions, software is the same.

Perfect, thanks for the link!

Hello people!

There are minor changes on some parts of the controller (relays,terminals, capacitors...etc),depending on the availiability of these parts, but the design is the same.

As regards shipping, I usually ship with the local post, and the package requires a signature on delivery. The package should arrive at the local post office.

Hey guys, got a quick question about my freeze pack. I have been using it for a while now on my test build. The other day I turned off all power by switch off the surge protector as I was leaving for the weekend. when I came back and turned it back it it now reports wrong temps, like way off. Sitting on the porcessor at ambient temp (like 20c or so) it says its over 50c... anyway I can do a reset?

Thanks! I love the contollers!

[gsmaster]

Hello

What do you use for the controller's power supply? Possibly a high voltage spike at the mains power, has passed your power supply and damaged the controller.

[Fhqwhgads6680]

Hey gsmaster. I am using a small dc power adapter like the one here: http://http://cgi.ebay.com/12V-5V-DC...QQcmdZViewItem then have a molex connector and using the 12v of that to the controller.

[otisthecat]

[piotres]

Hello

That can be hard now ...

From what I know :

Unseen stopped all works connected with phase-change .

GSMaster is in army . Try to PM him, there is an e-mail adress in his signature.

Good luck .
