9.4 Advice for the programming of the different temperature transitions
•
For the end value of the desired cycle, add an additional section (in the examples section 05 for set-
point ramp and section 08 for set-point step) with a section time of at least one second. Otherwise the
program will stop one section too early because the program line is incomplete.
•
If the tolerance minimum is set to e.g. -5 and the tolerance maximum to e.g. +5, the program is inter-
rupted when the actual value deviates by 5 °C or more from the set-point value. During this program
interruption, the screen displays at the right below AUTO HAND instead of AUTO (program operation).
You can enter different values for tolerance maximum and minimum for each section. When the tem-
perature is situated within the entered tolerance limits, the program is automatically continued. The in-
dication AUTOHAND disappears.
Programming of tolerances can extend program duration.
Therefore, the duration of the program might be extended due to the programming of tolerances.
The number -1999 for the tolerance minimum means “-
∞
“ and the number 9999 for the tolerance
maximum means “+
∞
“. Entry of these numbers will never lead to program interruption.
During the rapid transition phase, do NOT program any tolerance limits in order to allow the maximum
heating speed.

of the fan speed corresponds to the maximal speed of 100 %.
Do reduce the fan speed rate ONLY if absolutely necessary for the essay. Usually, the
spatial exactitude of the temperature decreases with decreasing ventilation. Technical
data refer to a 100 % fan speed rate.
•
Programming is conserved even in case of power failure or after switching off the unit.
•
The controller memory can store a maximum of 25 programs. Each program cannot exceed 100 sec-
tions. It is not possible to link several programs. The total number of program sections of all programs
is limited to a maximum of 500.
If you incidentally press the EXIT or AUTOMATIC button during program operation, the control-
ler will change to Idle Mode and thus will not adjust any more to the program set-points.
We recommend keyboard locking (option, chap. 11.3) during operation.
General note:
The controller MB1 displays more menu entries than those described in this manual. These are password
protected because they are relevant for service purpose only and the user must not modify them. Only
service authorized by BINDER shall access those entries.
