Storing a Custom Mode Program
As you go through the Custom Mode programming process and complete it, your program is automatically stored in the program number you selected at
the beginning of the programming process.
Selecting and Running a Custom Mode Program
At some point you are likely to have set all 4 Custom Mode programs to something you like and want to run again and again. The Set-Pro allows you to
quickly select the program you desire.
To Select a Custom Mode Program
From IdLE press the Enter key one time. Use the UP or DOWN arrow keys to choose USEr. Press the Enter key. Use the UP arrow key to choose
the Custom Mode program you wish to run and then press the DOWN arrow. The Set-Pro display automatically cycles through the chosen
program settings and then displays rEdI. Simply press Start to begin the firing.
Stopping the Program
At any time you may stop the program while it’s running by pressing the Start/Stop key. The display will briefly read StOP and then read IdLE along with
chamber temperature.
4 User Programs in Custom Mode
The Set-Pro allows the artist to save up to 4 Custom Mode programs in memory. Your programs remain in these 4 locations indefinitely and can be recalled
or changed at any time.
8 Segments per Custom Mode Program
Firing programs are built using segments. The Set-Pro allows you to use up to 8 segments for each Custom Mode firing program. Typical glass programs
generally use 8 segments or less.
Programming a Time Value
The Set-Pro accepts time as Hours and Minutes. When programming a time value, a red dot will illuminate in the middle of the four display digits.
Numbers to the left of the dot indicate hours and numbers to the right of the dot indicate minutes.
Temperature Rate Options
Temperature rate is programmed in degrees per hour (°/hr.). At some point you may like to go as fast as possible. You can do this in two ways. You can
program in the maximum rate of 9999 which works fine or use the FULL command. The FULL command instructs the controller to go Full on (or Full off) to
the set point temperature. To set your rate to FULL simply press the down arrow key until the display stops at 0000, then release the key. Wait a moment
or two, and then press the down arrow one time. The display will read FULL.
Using the UP and DOWN Arrow Keys
When using the arrow keys, especially when holding them down, the “tens” position will change first then the “hundreds” position will change then the
“thousands” position will change. This process is designed to get you where you want to go a little faster, and easier. Another twist to this feature allows
you to “tap” the button to change the position slowly. For instance: let’s say you’re holding down the up arrow key and the hundreds position is changing.
Simply let go of the arrow key and press it once to increment the hundreds up by 1. Press it once again and it moves up by 1 again. And so on and so forth.
This feature is true when any position is the one being changed. We hope you find it useful.
