When activating the HBR4 digital and HB4 digital devices an auto-
matic self-test is carried out, all LEDs flash and all segments (fig. 1)
are visible on the LCD display. After this, the LCD displays in figure
2 to figure 5 are visible (standard factory setting).
When setting the safety circuit an upper temperature limit between
50˚C and 210˚C is set. The safety circuit can only be set in operating
mode "A".
The safety circuit is automatically checked each time the device is
restarted.

troller which works independently from the closed loop control cir-
cuit. The safety temperature is set with a small screw driver on the-
setting axle (K). The end of the slot opposite the flattening is used as
a setting mark.
