6.4.1. Explanation of firing segments
Each firing program consists of individual firing segments. Each firing segment consists of 3 values. The 3 values of a
firing segment are:
 a heating (1.1) or cooling ramp (1.2)
 the soak or target temperature (2)
 a soak time (3)
When programming a firing program, the three values must be entered for each segment.
During programming and the course of a firing program, the graphical display shows which value of the respective firing
segment is currently selected or which is currently running with an illuminated LED display.
The "Segment" display shows which segment you are currently in during programming and the program run.
