5. Common problems with TC5 temperature controller, digital temperature controller, and industrial temperature controller
Q1: How to distinguish between TC5H and TC5S?
Check the temperature range and output specifications on the label or instruction manual.
TC5H usually has higher temperature resistance, while TC5S has simpler functions.
Q2: What should I do if TC5M communication fails?
Check the wiring (whether the A/B terminals are reversed).
Confirm that the baud rate, address, and host are consistent.
Test communication using debugging software such as ModScan.
Q3: What is the problem with TC5L displaying"----"?
It may be due to sensor circuit failure or temperature exceeding the range (such as below -50 ℃).
Check the sensor wiring or replace the matching low-temperature sensor.
