3. Obsah balení

Po otevření balení se prosím ujistěte, že jsou všechny součásti přítomny a nepoškozené:

• 1 x XM-18S Incubation Thermostat Unit
• 1 x Temperature Sensor (wired)
• 1 x Humidity Sensor (wired)
• Connection cables for power and external components (e.g., heater, humidifier, egg turner motor)

4. Nastavení a instalace

4.1 Montáž regulátoru

The XM-18S is designed for panel mounting. Ensure you have a suitable opening in your incubator or control panel that matches the controller's dimensions (refer to Section 2: Specifications).

4.2 Připojení snímače

1. Connect the temperature sensor to its designated port on the controller.
2. Connect the humidity sensor to its designated port on the controller.
3. Position both sensors inside the incubator, ensuring they are not directly exposed to heating elements or water, which could lead to inaccurate readings.

4.3 Wiring External Components

The controller provides output terminals for connecting external devices such as heaters, humidifiers, and egg turning motors. Refer to the wiring diagram (if provided with your specific unit) for correct connections. Ensure all wiring is done by a qualified individual and adheres to local electrical safety standards.

4.4 Připojení napájení

Connect the controller to a stable power supply according to its voltage requirements. Once powered on, the color screen display will illuminate.

5. Návod k obsluze

5.1 Zobrazení nadview

The color screen displays real-time temperature and humidity readings. Various indicators show the status of heating, humidification, and egg turning cycles.

5.2 Ovládací tlačítka

• SOUBOR: Enters parameter setting mode. Press again to cycle through parameters.
• +: Increases the value of the selected parameter.
• -: Sníží hodnotu vybraného parametru.
• REŽIM: Switches between different operating modes or confirms settings.
• TEPLOTA: Likely a shortcut or indicator for temperature settings.
• VLHKOST VZDUCHU: Likely a shortcut or indicator for humidity settings.
• EGG TURNING: Manually activates or adjusts egg turning cycles.
• RESETOVÁNÍ: Resets the controller or clears alarms.

5.3 Nastavení teploty a vlhkosti

1. Stiskněte tlačítko SOUBOR button to enter the temperature setting mode. The temperature value will flash.
2. Použijte + a - tlačítka pro nastavení požadované teploty.
3. Stiskněte SOUBOR again to confirm the temperature and move to the next parameter (e.g., humidity).
4. Adjust humidity using the + a - tlačítka.
5. Pokračujte v stisknutí SOUBOR to cycle through other parameters (e.g., temperature alarm limits, humidity alarm limits, egg turning interval, egg turning duration).
6. Once all parameters are set, wait a few seconds for the display to return to normal operation, or press MODE pro ukončení režimu nastavení.

5.4 Egg Turning Settings

The controller can automate egg turning. Access the egg turning parameters via the SOUBOR button sequence. You can typically set:

• Turning Interval: How often eggs are turned (e.g., every 2 hours).
• Turning Duration: How long the egg turning motor operates for each turn (e.g., 10-15 seconds).

5.5 Připojení k Wi-Fi (volitelné)

If your XM-18S model includes Wi-Fi, refer to the specific instructions provided with your unit for connecting to your local network and using the associated mobile application for remote monitoring and control.

6. Údržba

• Čištění: Wipe the controller's surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or allow liquids to enter the unit.
• Péče o senzor: Keep temperature and humidity sensors clean and free from debris. Avoid physical damage to the sensor probes.
• Kalibrace: Periodically check the accuracy of the temperature and humidity readings against a known calibrated device. If significant discrepancies are found, the controller may require recalibration (refer to advanced settings or contact support).
• Skladování: If storing the unit for an extended period, disconnect it from power, clean it thoroughly, and store it in a dry, dust-free environment.

7. Řešení problémů

8. Uživatelské tipy

• Stabilní prostředí: Place your incubator in a room with stable ambient temperature to minimize fluctuations and improve controller efficiency.
• Předběžná zkouška: Always run your incubator with the XM-18S controller for at least 24-48 hours before placing eggs to ensure stable operation and correct settings.
• Umístění senzoru: Ensure sensors are placed at egg level and away from direct airflow or water sources for the most accurate readings.
• Pravidelné kontroly: Even with automatic control, periodically check the incubator's temperature and humidity with a secondary, calibrated thermometer/hygrometer.
