88 Setting the Maximum Test Time
8.1.3 Setting the Maximum Test Time
On some molds, if there is a thermocouple wiring problem, a heater could be damaged
during test. Specifically, some heaters in some configurations may not support the peak
temperatures reached when full power is applied for the default test time. An extreme
example is testing a hot runner without the cavity plate in position. If the heater is large, a
short test time may not be long enough to heat up and result in a failed test. Operators can
set the maximum test time for each zone to accommodate different types of heaters.
To set the maximum test time, do the following:
1. On the Mold Diagnostics screen, select the zone(s) to change.
2. Touch the Maximum Test Time field.
3. Enter the maximum test time in the format displayed (HHMMSS).
4. Touch the Accept button.
NOTE:The default setting is 2 minutes. Each mold setup can have its own set of maximum
test times.
