OVEN TRACKER XL2 Running a Temperature Profile 59
you to see the temperature profile in relation to the oven zones as the
profile appears on screen during the run. See the Insight software for an
introduction to process files: press function key F1, or select Help >
Contents from the menu bar, and click the section ‘Process Files: Oven,
Recipe, Product’.)
If you will normally not wish to apply a process file to the results, you can opt not
to have the Select Process dialog displayed immediately after a download (from the
menu bar, select Tools > Options > Process File); a process file may still be
applied subsequently.
6. The newly downloaded data then appears on screen and can be displayed
(numerically and graphically), analyzed and printed as you wish; see Insight’s
online Help system. If multiple runs have been downloaded, each
temperature profile will be displayed as a new tab in Insight, unless you
chose to merge the profiles during download (see above). Save the data as a
‘paqfile’ (select File > Save or Save As).
Open Circuits
An open circuit can occur during a profile run if a thermocouple becomes
damaged. The logger will then continue sampling on that channel, but, by
default, a warning – giving the relevant probe number – will be shown when the
data is downloaded (see above). To disable the alarm, select Tools > Options >
Run Alarms.
The means of proceeding to the next profile run after a logger download
depend on the contents of the logger memory, on whether the logger is in multiple-
or single-run mode (p. 48), and on whether you wish to change the data-collection
parameters.
Logger in multiple-run mode:
• If the logger memory contains nine or fewer profile runs (whether or not
they have been downloaded), data-recording for the next run can be
started simply by attaching the MemoryPaq to the Transducer
Interface (or to the Dual Interface Block if used) – see p. 53; the previous
data-collection parameters will be used.
• If the logger memory contains 10 profile runs (whether or not they have been
downloaded), a new run cannot be started until the logger memory has
been emptied by resetting using Insight (p. 46).
