5.1 PROGRAMMING
The Bead Ruptor 24 is programmable for Speed/Processing Energy, Time, Number of Runs and Dwell (or
Pause) between cycles. The Bead Ruptor memory can store up to 99 programs.
After powering on, the LCD screen will display the program number blinking to denote this is the ‘active’
variable. The  and  keys move the cursor between the dierent variables within the program while
the  and  buttons respectively decrease or increase the value of the active variable.
Each press of the button will incrementally change the variable’s value. Holding down the  or  buttons
causes the variable to advance rapidly.
