BEFORE YOU START
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a UDC
2000
controller. Once you've studied these instructions and
used the controller a few times, the UDC
2000
will be
as easy to use as a digital wrist-watch. But be prepared
to
spend some time learning to use it.
The typical digital wrist-watch
will
do some amazing
things once you know how to use it. But if you never read
the instructions for it, that same wrist-watch will annoy
you by beeping at odd hours. If you study this manual,
you will be delighted at the firing power at your disposal.
If you don't read it, you'll never really appreciate your
controller.
If you purchased the controller as part of a kiln or
furnace, you will find a furnace manual in this instruc
tion packet. Please read the furnace manual first, then
this manual.
While you're learning to use the controller, leave your
furnace's on/off switch in the OFF position. This will
allow you
to
experiment with the controller without
powering the elements. Mter you complete a firing, turn
the on/off switch to the OFF position.
Thank you for purchasing this controller. We trust
that it will open a new world of convenience for you.
The UDC
2000
controller is warranted for two years.
This warranty includes immediate technical assistance·
via a toll free telephone number and complete replace
ment of the controller if necessary. For technical assis
tance, dial
1-800-423-9883.
Your model and serial number is
OC2003-0-0080-0000-00-0111
Here's how to remove the controller from your kiln in
the event that you need to return it to the factory under
warranty:
1.
Loosen the screw on the face ofthe controller.
2.
Pull the controller out.
When reinstalling, make sure the controller slides
under the guide clip at the bottom of the controller. Push
the controller in all the way.
