Auto Cycle Feature
During prolonged down time periods, typically during
the summer months, it advisable to intermittently exer-
cise the loops. This exercising of the loops is accom-
plished via the Autocycle feature.
To enable the Auto Cycle feature, select an Auto Cycle
Interval greater than 0 hours within the System tab.
See Figure 9. The Auto Cycle feature is disabled when
the Auto Cycle Interval equals 0 hours.
On a sequential circuit basis, the Autocycle feature pe-
riodically monitors system performance between 1-999
hours. The minimum and maximum values for Current
Load, GFEP and Temperatures are stored. Once the
new high or low value is attained the old value is over-
written and displayed in the Autocycle tab text boxes.
See Figure 10.
This provides a certain level of preventative mainte-
nance of the system as Faults (Alarms) will present
themselves accordingly. Problem areas can be ad-
dressed during non-essential operating periods.

WARNING:
It is NOT advisable to engage the Auto Cycle
feature during normal operating periods. The
heating cables will become fully energized for
approximately 2 minutes throughout the Auto
Cycle Interval which could cause undesirable
temperature overshoot.
