Text of the manual
The TD-30 is a digital temperature display mod-
ule for use with specific Independent Energy
temperature controls. It can display both setpoint
and sensor temperature in either °F or °C and will
work with the following models:
SP-30
Single stage controls
SP-30D
Single stage controls
(DPDT output)
SP-300
Dual stage controls
The TD-30 can snap directly into the front cover
of the SP control, or can be mounted remotely, up
to 500 feet away. In addition to being a valuable
monitoring aid, it can be used as a service tool for
systems using the SP-30/30D/300 controls.

When directly mounted on the cover of the SP
control, the control's setpoint can be adjusted by
inserting the included 1/8" Allen wrench through
the access hole in the cover of the TD-30. Adjust-
ing the setpoint while viewing the setpoint tem-
perature on the TD-30 allows the user to set
temperatures very accurately and easily.
The TD-30 has a Max/Min feature which stores
the highest and lowest sensor temperatures in
memory. With a push of a button, the user can find
the highest and lowest temperature that the system
has reached since the last "clear". These max/min
temperatures are retained in memory even if power
is removed from the TD-30.
Environment:
0-95% rH
Connection:
All power and signals con-
nected through 4 conductor
phone cable to SP control. A
6 inch cable is included. 500
ft maximum length.
Dimensions:
4.25" x 1.75" x 1.62" overall
3.94" x 1.50" cutout for panel
mounting

Direct mounting on control
1.
Disconnect power from SP control
2.
Remove the setpoint access panel from the
control cover.
3.
Feed TD-30 cable through the cover and
plug into the phone jack type connector on
the SP control (located to the left of the
setpoint adjustment knob).
4
Tuck the TD-30 cable by folding it and
pushing the slack down into the control,
making sure not to block the back of the
setpoint access hole.
5.
Now snap the TD-30 into the front panel of
the control.
6.
Restore power and check operation of the
control. The setpoint can be adjusted using
the 1/8" Allen wrench through the access
hole in the TD-30.
Panel Mounting
1.
Cut a 3.94" x 1.5" (3 15/16" x 1 1/2")
rectangular opening in the panel. Panel
thicknesses from .030" to .190" (3/16") are
suitable.
2.
Connect an extension cable between the
TD-30 and the SP-30/30D/300. Refer to
"TD-30 extension cables" section for more
information.
Wall mounting
1.
The MK-1 wallplate allows the TD-30 to be
flush mounted on a wall over a 3 gang
electrical box. Alternatively, the MK-2
bracket allows the TD-30 to be mounted
onto a wall without penetrating the wall
surface.
Both the MK-1 and MK-2 mounting plates
must be ordered separately and are avail-
able at your Goldline dealer
2.
Connect an extension cable between the
TD-30 and the SP-30/30D/300. Refer to
"TD-30 extension cables" section for more
information.
TD-30 Extension Cables
Two types of extension cables can be used to
mount the TD-30 remote from the control:
Male/Female type: This phone cable has one male
jack and one female jack. Plug the TD-30's short
cable into the female jack and plug the male jack
into the SP-30/30D/300 control.
Male/Male type: This phone cable has two male
jacks. Remove the short cable from the TD-30 by
reaching into the small access hole in the rear of
the display, depressing the jack tab, and gently
pulling. Plug one male end into the TD-30 and the
other into the SP-30/30D/300 control.
Custom Length: A male/male extension cable can
be assembled by following the diagram below.
Connectors, cable and assembly tools can com-
monly be found at electrical supply outlets. Note
that each conductor's position on one jack, differs
from the other. Wire accordingly.

The TD-30 control is shipped from the factory
with the display set to °F. You can check this by
verifying that no decimal point is displayed. (The
°C display always includes a decimal point.)
To change the current setting, press the program-
ming button (recessed, upper hole next to display)
for more than 3 seconds. The current setting ºF or
ºC will be displayed. Each consecutive push of the
programming button will toggle the display back
and forth between the two settings. When the
programming button has been released for more
than 3 seconds, the last selection displayed will
become the new setting.

When first connecting the TD-30 to the SP con-
trol, the LCD screen should show "-188.8" for
approximately 3 seconds. If the LCD reads "---",
there is a data error and a bad cable is the likely
cause.
Functions
Displaying sensor temperature: The TD-30 con-
tinuously displays the SP control’s sensor tem-
perature, with no need to push or hold any buttons.
Displaying setpoint temperature: Press and hold
the upper pushbutton.
Displaying the highest (maximum) temperature
reached by the control's sensor since the last
clear: Press and hold the lower pushbutton.
Displaying the lowest (minimum) temperature
reached by the control's sensor since the last
clear: Press the lower pushbutton and then release
it. The minimum temperature will be displayed
for approximately 3 seconds and then the display
will automatically revert to reading the current
sensor temperature.
To "clear" the high/low (max/min) temperature
memory: Press and hold the lower pushbutton for
more than 3 seconds. The LCD screen will go
blank and then return, indicating that the memory
has been cleared. Both maximum and minimum
temperatures will be set to the current sensor
temperature.
To adjust the SP control setpoint (when the TD-
30 is mounted on the control): Use a 1/8" Allen
wrench (provided with the TD-30) through the
opening marked "setpoint access" and into the SP
control's setpoint knob.

There are no setup parameters to set or other
adjustments required for the TD-30 to operate
properly. You should be able to remove the TD-
30 from the box, plug it into an SP-30/30D/300
control and immediately display the sensor tem-
perature. If you have a problem, refer to the
section below.
No display or if the LCD screen reads "---":
Check that power is connected to the SP control
and that the SP control is operating properly. Next
check the wiring connection between the TD-30
and the SP control, an extension cable may be
miswired. Lastly, turn power off, wait 1 minute
and then reapply power. If there still is a problem,
call IE technical support.
Temperature display bounces between several
different values: Check that the sensor lines are
not near other electrical cabling, use shielded
sensor wire if necessary.
TD-30 displays erroneous readings: Check that
the sensor is making good thermal contact with
whatever is being measured and that the sensor is
insulated from ambient temperatures. If the sen-
sor is in a wet environment or in constantly
condensing humidity, moisture may enter the
sensor body and result in errors, over time. If this
is the case, replace the sensor. As a last resort,
unwire the sensor from the SP control, measure
the resistance with an ohmmeter and lookup the
corresponding temperature on an IE “resistance
vs. temperature” chart (see back). This will allow
you to determine whether the sensor or the TD-30
is causing the error. If it is the TD-30, then return
the unit to IE for repair.
TD-30 reads "ERR": There is a short or open
condition on the SP's temperature sensor. Check
the condition of the wire run and the sensor with
an ohmmeter

All Goldline controls use 10K thermistor sensors.
When disconnected from the control, the sensor
will read 10 K ohms at 25°C/77°F. Refer to the
chart below for the resistance at other tempera-
tures. For a given temperature, the resistance is
accurate to +/- 1%. For a given resistance the
temperature is accurate to +/- 0.5°F.
