11. Use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to select your desired rate.
12. Press the Enter key. The display will read
°F 1
(
°C 1
if using Celsius).
The Set-Pro is asking for the temperature set point you wish to reach in segment 1.
°F stands for the temperature set point (°C is displayed if
you’re using the Celsius scale) and the 1 means you’re programming the temperature you would like to reach in segment 1.
The choice is yours.
13. Use the Up and Down arrow keys to select your set point temperature.
14. Press the Enter key. The display will read
HLd1
along with some number.
The Set-Pro is asking for the amount of time you wish to hold at the set point temperature.
HLd stands for Hold (a.k.a. soak or dwell) and the 1
means you’re programming the amount of time you want the temperature to stay at the segment 1 temperature once you reach it.
Hold time is programmed in hours and minutes. Values to the left of the decimal point are hours and values to the right of the decimal are
minutes. You do not have to hold at temperature if you don’t want to, in which case hold time would be 0.
15. Use the Up and Down arrow keys to select your desired hold time.
16. Press the Enter key. If you have chosen to use more than 1 segment for your firing the display will read
rA 2
along with some number. If you have
chosen to use only 1 segment for this firing skip ahead to line #21
for further instruction.
The Set-Pro is asking for temperature rate, this time for segment 2.
17. Use the Up and Down arrow keys to select your desired rate.
18. Press the Enter key. The display will read
°F 2
along with some number.
The Set-Pro is asking for the temperature set point, this time for segment 2.
19. Use the Up and Down arrow keys to select your desired temperature set point.
20. Press the Enter key. The display will read
HLd2
along with some number.
The Set-Pro is asking for the amount of hold time at your temperature set point, this time for segment 2.
As you can see from the emerging pattern, the Set-Pro will continue to ask the same three questions: rate, temperature and time for all remaining
segments. Just keep answering the questions. Doing so creates that beautiful chain of events called a firing program!
21. Once all your segments are programmed the Set-Pro will display
rEdI
which means it’s ready to fire your Custom Mode program.
22. Press the Enter key to begin the firing. The Set-Pro Custom Mode program you created is now running and firing the kiln.
When the firing is complete the display alternates between
CPLt
and total firing time. Pressing the Start/Stop key at this point will cause the display to
briefly read
StOP
and then
IdLE
.
The Set-Pro automatically stops running the firing program once complete. However, you may always stop a firing in progress, at any time, by pressing the
Start/Stop key.
StOP
is displayed briefly and then
IdLE
