Program Status Options:
1. Shaker: This option determines if the Shaker is on or off.
2. Timer: This option determines if the Timer is on or off.
3. Temperature: This option determines if the Temperature is on or off.
4. Preheat: This option determines if the system is in preheat mode.
In preheat mode the system will not advance to the next
step until the set temperature is achieved. Preheat should
only be used at step 1 of a program requiring heat on or
when a previous step did not have the heat option set to
“On”
5. Ramp Rate: This option determines the temperature ramp rate for
temperature changes from higher-to-lower tempera-
tures. Available Cooling Ramp Rates are:
r1: No ramp (temperature will decrease as fast as possible)
r2: 3.5 Degrees C/minute
r3: 1.8 Degrees C/minute
r4: 0.9 Degrees C/minute
* Rates are estimated using a 20°C ambient. Actual rates are condi-
tions permitting.
* When using the timer option, care must be taken to allow enough
time for the unit to change temperature based on the ramp select-
ed. Timer option “On” will complete a step once the timer expires
and has priority over the new set temperature being achieved.
Th
e Cooling Ramp Rate option is for use when the programming steps
are changing from a higher temperature to a lower temperature.
6. Beep: This option determines if the Beeper is active at the comple-
tion of the step.
7. End: This option determines if the program execution will be
stopped at the completion of the step and display “End” on
the “Program” display. This option should only be set “On” for
the desired last step of the program and will not by itself
cause a program step to complete. See Program Step Details
section for explanation of what causes a step to complete.
