START

Using This Quick Start Manual
Use this Quick Start Manual to get your INFT Temperature Indicator when used with a termocouple up and running right out of the box. To do this you:
  • Connect the power cord
  • Connect the RTD
  • Configure the unit

  •    - specify thermocouple type
       - set degrees to C or F
       - set decimal point position

    Before You Begin
    You should have the following parts:
  • INFT unit
  • Front-panel button cover
  • Panel-mounting gaskets
  • Rear protective cover (attached) with green Cold Junction Compensation Board (right side, top to bottom).
  • Front panel cover/panel mounting gasket
    You MUST have this component (on right). Contact the Newport Customer Service Department at (714) 540-4914 if any of these parts are missing, or if you have questions.
    In addition to the unit and related parts, you will need the following items to set up your unit:
  • 110V ac power
  • Thermocouple
  • 1/8" flat blade screwdriver
  • 1/8" Phillips head screwdriver


  • Connect AC Power
    1. Remove the rear protective cover and set it aside. The cover is secured with a single Phillips-head screw.

    2. Locate connector P1 on the bottom-left rear of the INFT unit. The connector has three screw-down terminals: (see Image on right)

    3. Insert the correct wire in each terminal and tighten the lockdown screw. Tug gently on the wires to verify the connections.

    Caution Take care not to damage the green Cold Junction Compensation board and its connectors.

    4. Replace the rear cover. Verify proper seating of the connectors on the green Cold Junction Compensation board.

    5. Thread the power wires through the slots on the side of the cover. Replace the rear cover retaining screw.

    Connect the Thermocouple
    MeterRegardless of thermocouple type, the RED wire is always NEGATIVE.

    The cover on the thermocouple connector shows the positive and negative terminals.

    1. Attach the wires and tighten the retaining screws. Tug gently on each wire to verify the connection.

    2. Apply AC power. The front panel of the unit displays RESET2, followed by the temperature. If it does not:
    a. Remove ac power.
    b. Verify your P1 power connections.
    c. Check your power source.
    d. Plug the unit in again.

    If the unit flashes + OPEN, the Cold Junction Compensation Board is not seated properly. Check the connections and the rear cover retaining screw, and repeat this step.
