Program table corresponding to the diagram (with default setting “Ramp”):
set-point
[ °C]
TEMP
[hh.mm]
You can now enter the values of such a program table to the RD3 program controller (chap. 8.2).
Program the end point of the desired cycle 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):
