Adjust
Press Adjust to make adjustments to the firing while a firing is in progress. Pressing “Add
Time” during a hold segment of the firing will add 5 minutes to the hold. It has no effect if the
firing is not in a hold when pressed. Pressing “Add Temperature” during a hold segment will
increase the hold temperature by 5°F. It has no effect if the firing is not in a hold when pressed.
Pressing “Skip Step” will skip the current segment and move to the next in the firing. This
feature is used when enough heat work has been done at the current segment and you want to
immediately go to the next ramp rate. Pressing “Alarm Temp.” allows you to adjust the alarm
temperature for the firing. A temperature of 9999 shuts the alarm off.

“Diagnostics”, the controller runs a manual diagnostics test during the firing. Pressing “TC
Offsets” allows the user to change the temperature offsets for each thermocouple.

When the firing is complete, an alarm will sound and the controller will display COMPLETE with
the current temperature and firing time. To return to IDLE, press “Clear”. You may open the kiln when
the temperature has cooled to 150°F.
