3.11 Setting the Heaters
The only available Heater in the dispensing system is the needle heater. Heater temperature is set in the
FmXP software. The heater controller monitors the Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD), compares it
to the heat parameters set in Fluidmove, and regulates the voltage going to the heating element to
maintain the set temperature.
