Use this menu option to set up Pinnacle parameters that directly control the output of
your process.

Setting Recipes
PROCESS → CONTROL → RECIPE
Note: If you are using recipes, you cannot use the standard joule mode. You can set
up both recipes and joules, however, when running recipes the joule feature
isn’t triggered. You must use the joule recipe feature to have this functionality.
Use the RECIPE menu to implement a ramping recipe. This function lets you program
the Pinnacle Plus+ to ramp up in incremental steps (1 to 8 steps are possible). For each
step, you must set a ramp time, a set point, and a run timer. Ramp time is the amount
of time (in seconds) that the Pinnacle Plus+ takes to ramp up to the set point for the
specified step. Run timer is the amount of time (in seconds) for which the Pinnacle
Plus+ unit runs at set point for the specified step.
Note: To enable this function, set the number of steps to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8. To
disable this function, set the number of steps to 0.
To set the number of recipe steps:
1. Choose the regulation mode.
Note: Use the REGULATION key to toggle between power, current and voltage.
Use the MODIFY knob to select a value between 0 and the full rated
output of the supply.
2. Press PROCESS → CONTROL → RECIPE.
3. Rotate the MODIFY knob to select a value from 1 through 8.
4. Press ENTER; the display progresses to a series of screens through which you
enter ramp time, set point, and run timer for each step.
To set the ramp time, set point, and run timer value for each step:
1. After you have entered a value from 1 through 8 at the # OF STEPS screen (see
steps 1 and 2 above), you should be looking at a screen that requests a RAMP
TIMER value.
2. Rotate the MODIFY knob to select a value from 0 to 600 s (in 0.01 s increments).
3. Press ENTER; the display progresses to a screen requesting a SETPOINT value.
4. Press ENTER; the display progresses to a screen requesting a RUN TIMER value.
