9.7 Step 2
9.7.1 Mask 101/102: Parameters 1/2 and 2/2
The program parameters are displayed in 2 masks.
Press the function button Parameter (in the right-hand
menu bar) to toggle between both masks.
The parameters apply for the displayed program.
They are described individually below.
The parameter values can be edited after entering the
step 2 password. Press the individual input fields to
show a selection menu or a keypad. Select or enter val-
ues via the selection menu and keypad respectively.

Vacuuming modes
Vacuuming mode Suitability / Functioning
Set point
Suitable for dry products
Vacuuming is carried out until the vacuum set point is reached in the vacuum
chamber.
Evaporating Most frequently used vacuuming mode, suitable for wet, possibly warm prod-
ucts.
Vacuuming is carried out until the moisture in the vacuum chamber or the
package has evaporated. The evaporation point is temperature dependent.
The colder the product, the higher the achievable vacuum is.
If evaporation is not possible, vacuuming occurs up to the vacuum set point
(select as high as possible).
Vacuuming beyond the evaporation point will result in the product drying out.
Therefore, the evaporation sensitivity must be between 0.1 s and 10.0 s.
Stage-vacuum This vacuuming mode is suitable for sensitive and porous products which
have a tendency to expand or burst when vacuuming is carried out too quick-
ly, since the products must be degased slowly.
Time-based
(emergency
operation)
This vacuuming mode is used in certain exceptional cases (e.g. with defective
vacuum measurement). Vacuuming occurs instead of the vacuum measure-
ment during the set time period.
The "time-based" vacuuming mode is only displayed if the parameter "Time-
based vacuuming" is set to "on" in Mask 157: Defect modes. This vacuuming
mode should only be activated after prior consultation with the VC999 Cus-
tomer Service Department.
