Kiln Info
Contains the firmware version plus the serial number and mac address for registering
and viewing your kiln at www.bartinst.com. Updating firmware will NOT affect the firing
programs.
Diagnostics
Board Temperature
Displays the current board temperature. Displaying the board temperature is a
diagnostics function to check the operation of the board. The safe range for board temperature
is between 0°F - 160°F. Any temperatures below or above that range may cause damage to the
controller.
Run Manual Diagnostics
This is used to manually begin a diagnostics test. It turns on each section of elements to
read amperages and voltage. The results are stored under Data Menu – Last Manual
Diagnostics.
New Element Diagnostics
Run New Element Diagnostics when the elements have been changed to record
amperages and voltages for the new element. The results are stored under Data Menu – Last
Element Change.
Relay Health
Keep track of the number of on/off cycles of the relays on your kiln. An on/off cycle will
be counted as one. When a relay is replaced, press the corresponding zone and press the RESET
button to set the number of cycles back to 0.
Adjustments
Adjustments allows you to change the Cone and Thermocouple offsets as well as the Alarm
temperature and Output 4 Percentage On for the controller.
Cone Offset
Cone offset is used to raise or lower the final cone temperature. The final cone
temperature can be raised or lowered a maximum of 99°F (37°C). To correct an under-firing set
a positive cone offset. To correct an over-firing, set a negative (-) cone offset. To change the
Cone Offset, press “Cone Offset”, and use the scroll bar to select the cone offset. When the
correct cone is displayed, press “Edit”, enter the desired offset and press “Save”.
