5.1 Overview 
5.1.1 Introduction 
The program function of DC1000 has 2 program patterns, and each program has Max. 8 
segments.  The programs can be linked for a continuous 16 segments. 
The term “programming” is used here to identify the process for selecting and entering 
the individual ramp and soak segment data needed to generate the required setpoint 
versus time profile (also called a program). 
A segment is a ramp or soak function which together make up a setpoint program.  
Setpoint Ramp/Soak Programming lets you configure 8 ramp and 8 soak segments to be 
stored for use as one program or several small programs.
 You designate the end segment 
to determine where the program is to stop. 
Each segment can be defined as a period of “RAMP” or “SOAK” status.
