Initilization Screen
(Programmable Modes)
The initialization screen allows the user to specify the loop parameters for the ramp and soak
profile.
START AT SEG indicates the initial segment in the profile.
LOOP FROM SEG indicates the final segment in the profile.
LOOP TO SEG indicates the segment the controller will execute immediately following the final segment.
For example: If; START AT SEG = 00, LOOP FROM SEG = 05; LOOP TO SEG = 02.
The controller will execute segments 00 through 05 in sequence then loop from 05 to 02. The controller
will then continue to execute segments 02 through 05 indefinatly until the profile is halted or altered.
Example #2: If; START AT SEG = 00, LOOP FROM SEG = 05; LOOP TO SEG = 05.
The controller will execute segments 00 through 05 in sequence. Then, since the loop to segment is the
same as the loop from segment, the controller will loop from 05 to 05. The controller will then continue to execute
segment 05 indefinatly until the profile is halted or altered.
