5.1. Температураны өлчөө бирдиктерин которуу (Цельсий/Фаренгейт)

Цельсий (°C) менен Фаренгейттин (°F) ортосунда которулуу үчүн:

• Press and hold the "SET" button for approximately 2 seconds. The display will change the temperature unit.

5.2. Temperature Control Mode

This mode allows you to set a desired temperature range for heating or cooling.

1. Press the "SET" button once to enter temperature control mode.
2. Use the "UP" and "DOWN" buttons to adjust the "Start Temperature" (ON).
3. Press "SET" again to move to the "Stop Temperature" (OFF).
4. Use the "UP" and "DOWN" buttons to adjust the "Stop Temperature".
5. Press "SET" once more to confirm and exit the setting.

Жылытуу операциясы: If "Start Temperature" is караганда аз "Stop Temperature", the device will operate in heating mode. The connected device will turn on when the temperature drops below the Start Temperature and turn off when it reaches the Stop Temperature.

Муздатуу операциясы: If "Start Temperature" is караганда чоңураак "Stop Temperature", the device will operate in cooling mode. The connected device will turn on when the temperature rises above the Start Temperature and turn off when it drops to the Stop Temperature.

Температураны көзөмөлдөө диапазону: -40 ° Cдан 120 ° Cка чейин (-72 ° F-176 ° F).
