Página 169 If operating at high altitude note that heat removal capacity decreases 1.2% per 1,000 feet above sea level. Also, reduce the maximum temperature for the air entering the ThermoFlex by 1°C per 1,000 feet above sea level. Verify/adjust controller PID values, see next page. Ensure the chiller was shut down properly, see Section 4.

Página 181 When a command has no value associated with it, (e.g., REQ ACK), “n d-bytes” will be set to 0. Values such as temperature and flow are sent as either 2 or 4 byte signed integers, depending on how they are stored in the controller RAM. When the controller sends a value, a qualifier byte is sent first, followed by a 2 or 4 byte integer (the least significant byte is sent last). The qualifier indicates the precision and units of the value. The host does not send the qualifier byte; it must send the value using the correct precision, units and number of bytes. The host first inquires about a value it wants to change, then uses the number of data bytes and the qualifier byte it receives to generate the proper integer to send. ThermoFlex Thermo Scientific...
