Chapter 3: Operation
Operation Manual: Evolution Series
In general, a larger preheat value will allow for a faster preheat time, but might
not provide as much temperature stability as a lower setting.
Temperature Control (Evolution 6300 Only)
The Evolution 6300 has three modes of temperature control:
• Shafts: This is the default setting. In this mode the temperature is
controlled by the embedded sensor in the RTD shafts. This is the
recommended mode of operation unless mini-vessels are used.
• TCS: The temperature will be controlled by the TCS (not the RTD shafts).
The calPROBE must be placed into the water bath. The bath temperature
will be controlled by the TCS and the feedback of the bath temperature
from the calPROBE. Individual vessel temperature will still be reported;
however, the control of temperature will be handled by the TCS.
• Mini: This setting is for mini-vessels. The RTD shafts will be disabled and
only the bath temperature (using the calPROBE) will be reported. The
calPROBE must be placed into the water bath. The bath temperature will
be controlled by the TCS and the feedback of the bath temperature from
the calPROBE. The minimum vessel volume when creating methods will be
adjusted to accommodate smaller volumes. All references to individual
vessel temperatures will be removed from the user interface and reports.
Beep Mode
Disabling Beep mode eliminates audible operator prompts from unit, but still
provides verification beep whenever any key is pressed. To disable this option set
Beep to 'OFF'.
Height Switch Setting
Disabling the height switch causes the system to ignore the height sensor for the
drive head. This allows the shafts to continue stirring when the drive head is
raised. This feature is particularly useful for measuring basket wobble during
mechanical validation of the unit.
To disable the height switch turn the setting to 'OFF'.
The height sensor is an important feature of the
unit and should be turned back on as soon as the
validation has been completed.
