How to Integrate Autoterm 2D/4D with VAN PI System
Step-by-Step Guide
Remove the Standard Control Panel:
First, remove the standard control panel from your Autoterm 2D heater.
Connect the USB-Autoterm Cable:
Attach the USB-Autoterm cable to the same connector where the control panel was previously connected.
Connect to VAN PI System:
Plug the other end of the USB-Autoterm cable into a free USB port on your VAN PI System.
