4. OPERATION PROCEDURES
Programmed Operation
This operation is used to run a combination of temperatures, times and
modes as one operation.
A maximum of six program pattern types can be entered (middle column).
1 program pattern using up to 30 steps.
2 program patterns using up to 15 steps.
3 program patterns using up to 10 steps.
Enter program patterns before attempting to run a programmed
operation.
① Confirm the number of steps in a program composition, and its
temperatures/times before entering. Using the program planning
worksheet on pages 32 and 33 is recommended.
② Determine temperature rise/fall capability of unit. Times must be set
to accommodate these capabilities.
For example, if unit is capable of increasing or decreasing
temperature by 50C in 15 minutes, approximately 30 minutes will
be needed to increase or decrease temperature by 100C from a
given temperature.
③ Confirm that the program has a sufficient number of patterns free to
allow for the number of steps to be created.
Steps using the repeat function mentioned below, however, are not
counted.
The repeat function is a convenient feature that can be used, when a
series of steps, identical to ones already created, are needed to fill the
remainder or remaining part of a program pattern. See “Pattern Repeat
Function” (P.31)
