By default during a firing the current programme
setpoint is shown on display (14). On heat up ramps
this setpoint counts upwards according to the
programmed rate. Every 15 seconds display (14)
flashes the maximum temperature of the currently
selected firing. This allows you to double check the
most important value of the firing without pressing
any keys.
Pressing key (11) followed by key (21) changes the
display (14) to the remaining time in the current
segment. On ramps the estimated time is calculated
whilst on dwells the entered time counts backwards.
In general the reading shows hours / minutes; if the
time is less than 1 hour the indication is in minutes /
seconds (unit display (13) „h.min“ is blinking).
After 15 seconds or when pressing key (10) followed
by key (20) again the the display (14) switches back to
the programme setpoint.
During a programme delay always the remaining time
until the programme starts is always shown.
Watching the firing curve (15) allows you to see how
your TC505 processes the firing curve segment by
segment. The programme is completed if the kiln
temperature reaches 150°C in the cooling segment (f).
„End“ on display (14) comfirms successful completion
of the firing process (as depicted on the left).
