Program table corresponding to the diagram (with default setting “Ramp”):
set-point
[ °C]
[hh.mm]
The values of such a program table can now be entered to the RD3 program controller (chap. 8.2).
The end point of the desired cycle must be programmed with an additional section (in our examples S05
for set-point ramp and S08 for set-point step) with a section time of at least one minute. Otherwise, the
program will stop one section too early because the program line is incomplete.
8.1.2 Programming with setting “step”
With setting “Step” selected, you don’t need to program the transition section in the Program Editor.
With setting “step” the controller will equilibrate only to constant temperatures; programming
ramps is no longer possible.
The set-points are maintained constant for the duration of a program section. At the start of each program
section, the chamber heats up with the maximum speed in order to attain the entered set-point.
Program entry as set-point step (example):
S01 S02 S03 S04 S05 S06 S07 S08
