61 / 291 - EN -
Display Icon Description
00.00
While the firing indicator light is flashing on the display, a program start delay
of up to "99 hours:59 minutes" can be entered using the d and f keys.
 The firing process can be started by pressing the j key again or will do so automatically after 5 seconds. The
“Program running” indicator continues to signal that a firing is in progress.
 For technical reasons, there is a point between the hours and minutes in the display and not a “colon” as is
usual with times.
Note:
The program delay for the delayed start for each firing process is set to “00.00” in the factory.
8.1.4. Program advance function
• While firing press and hold down the d key for 3 seconds to obtain the program advance function.
• The controller will emit a short beep and immediately advances the program by one step.
• The process is indicated accordingly in the course of the program on the graphical display by a flashing icon.
• The effect of this is as follows:
 If ramping, then the controller will switch to soak at the current kiln temperature.
 If soaking, then the controller will advance to the next segment if any, or else it will end the firing.
• Changes made to the operation of the controller in this way are temporary and are not stored.
