Frequently Asked Questions - IPB-16S Inkbird
How do I connect the sensor to the Inkbird IPB-16S?
Connect the NTC 10K sensor to terminals 1 and 2 (or PT100 to 3 and 4). Ensure correct polarity for PT100. Refer to the wiring diagram in the manual.
What is the default PID setting and how can I adjust it?
Default PID values are P=53, I=53, D=8. To adjust, enter the parameter setting mode by pressing and holding 'SET' for 3 seconds. Navigate with arrow keys and adjust values using up/down buttons.
How do I perform a self-tuning (AT) on this controller?
Press and hold the 'SET' key until 'AT' appears on the display. Release, then press 'SET' again to start auto-tuning. The controller will heat and cool a few times to find optimal PID parameters. This process can take several minutes.
Can I switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit?
Yes. In the advanced settings menu (press 'SET' for 5 seconds), locate the parameter 'C/F' and change it to 'C' for Celsius or 'F' for Fahrenheit. Press 'SET' to confirm.
What should I do if the display shows 'Err' or 'E-1'?
An error code indicates a sensor or wiring issue. 'Err' means sensor break or short circuit. Check sensor connections and replace if damaged. 'E-1' may indicate over-range; verify the measured temperature is within controller limits.
How do I set a high or low temperature alarm?
Enter the parameter settings. Look for 'AH' (high alarm) and 'AL' (low alarm). Set the desired limit values. The alarm output relay will activate when the temperature exceeds or falls below these limits.
What is the maximum load current for the output relay?
The relay is rated for 16A at 250VAC for resistive loads. For inductive loads (e.g., motors), derate to 8A. Ensure the load does not exceed these ratings to avoid damage.
Is the controller suitable for cooling applications?
Yes. You can configure the output for cooling by setting the control mode to reverse action. In the parameter menu, change 'Ctrl' to 'REV' (reverse). The output relay will then energize to turn on cooling equipment when temperature rises.
How do I reset the controller to factory defaults?
Press and hold the 'SET' key for 10 seconds until '---' appears on the display. Release, and the controller will reset all parameters to factory defaults. Note: This erases any custom settings.
Can I use a different type of temperature sensor?
The IPB-16S is designed primarily for NTC 10K thermistors. However, it can support PT100 RTD sensors if the input type parameter (Sn) is changed to 'Pt100' in the advanced settings. Verify compatibility before use.
