In the following paragraphs, explanations are given for those parameters and items, which are not self explanatory
or which have inter-dependencies with other parameters or functions.
The selection of the correct wire-temperature-coefficient is very important for the
correct operation of the device, when temperature controlled vaping is selected.
As soon as TC-mode is selected, a multiple choice list of commonly used wires types
with predefined coefficients is displayed, as well as "other" wire type.
The coefficient of the "other" wire is set in this menu item. Note that stainless steel
wires and also titanium wires often have coefficients that are not exactly defined,
depending on their exact alloy composition.
The TCoef menu item is also visible if the operating mode is not set to temperature-
controlled vaping.
The Power Limit has an influence on several functions:
Power Limit defines the setting range of the power in the main menu. As with the
Main Menu explained earlier, the Power Limit sets the maximum value of the power.
The power limit is useful for non-temperature controlled vaporizing and the use of
small heating coils or vaporizers to prevent the coil from burning out.
All dicodes devices have a functionality to adjust the minimum discharge level of the
battery between 2.5V and 3.0V (older models 3.5V). Almost all available batteries on
the market specify the minmum discharge level of 2.5V to 2.7V. If the user is unsure
whether her/his specific battery meets this specification, the level should be set to
2.7V.
The selected voltage is the voltage at the electronics input, when current is drained
from the battery (UbL). In contrast to other available tube- and boxmods on the
market, which stop operation already at 3.4V, the lower discharge level on dicodes
mods lead to a better battery utilization.
The time until the device automatically switches off can be selected between 1
minute and 60 minutes. We recommend combining a switch-off time of 2 or 5
minutes with immediate vape readiness (On-Clicks=0). In this combination, when
transporting the device e.g. in a bag, it could happen that the button is activated by
an unfavorable position. The device would then heat up to the draw time limit, then
switch off and immediately switch on again and "heat up" the coil.
To avoid this problem, a safety function is built in: If the number of "on-clicks" is less
than or equal to 2 and error 7(TimeOut) is present and the device performs an
automatic switch-off, the device can only be switched on again by briefly pressing the
key 5 times (i.e. 5 on-clicks). This behavior is valid only once for the described case.
After that, the device behaves as set.
Pressing the key 5 times is also required if "On clicks" are below "2" and the device is
actively switched off by the user (i.e. automatic switch-off does not occur).
As already mentioned, the number of key presses before switching on can be selected
under the On-Clicks menu item. The selection ranges from 0 (immediate steam
readiness) to 5 clicks (Note: The unit switches on after the first click and checks
whether the key is pressed within a certain time. If this is not the case, the device
switches off again).
