KICstart Technology
The KICstart uses different technology to complete its task of running profiles. The main difference
between it and other profilers is the following:
♦ Air thermocouple
– For all profiles run with the KICstart software the thermocouple plugged
into the first channel on the KICstart must be the Air TC. This TC is positioned 1 inch in front of
the leading edge of the board for all profiles run using KICstart software.
♦ Trigger temperatures
– The KICstart uses trigger temperatures to start and stop the profile. The
Start temperature is defaulted to 2 degrees above the Maximum Product Start temperature. See
Global Preferences for this value.
♦ Hardware Monitor
- The combination of the KICstart and the KICstart software closely monitors
the KICstart battery, internal temperature and the product temperature even before you start a
profile. There are built-in checks in the software to insure that the product and KICstart are cool
enough and battery voltage sufficient to complete a profile safely. As well it will offer
troubleshooting suggestions if there is a problem with communication or thermocouple
attachment.
♦ Perfect Data
– Through patent pending technology the KICstart is able to get you perfect data
every time. At the completion of a profile the KICstart retransmits the data it has stored in its
memory, once the communication cable is connected.
