When the display asks you to CONFIRM, press 

ENTER

 to save your bake 

parameters or 

ESC

 to exit without saving changes. 

After you have finished 

Once the delayed bake is enabled, the display flashes "BAKE OK" for 1 second every 5 seconds. 
Once the bake is started, the display flashes "BAKE nn.nH" where nn.nH indicates how many 
hours are left in the bake. When pressure is exceeded, the bake is suspended. 

How long have the heaters been on?  Once your bake has started, the actual on time for the 
heaters is logged and can be retrieved at any time.  To do this, 

1.

 

press the 

Bake

 key, 

2.

 

select TIME LOG with the 

Display Select

 key, and 

3.

 

press 

ENTER

.  The bottom display shows the actual on time for the heaters. 

To cancel the bake 

Once your bake has been enabled, if you want to cancel it, 

1.

 

press the 

Bake

 key, 

2.

 

press the 

Display Select

 key to toggle to DISABLE, 

3.

 

press

High Voltage Operate 

If the MPC is in manual restart, 

High Voltage Operate

 (the 

key) allows you to enable high 

voltage to one or both supplies. 

To apply high voltage 

To apply high voltage, the following steps must be performed: 

Note:  If the DIGITEL MPC is in POWER-LOSS RESTART mode, do not perform Steps 3, 4, and 
5. 

1.

 

Ensure that the high voltage cable is connected to both the pump and the MPC. Press 
the front panel main 

Power

 switch to 1 (1=ON). 

2.

 

If the MPC is in manual restart, press 

to select 

High Voltage Operate

.  The top 

display shows the state of HV 1 (ON or OFF), and the bottom display shows the state 
of HV 2. 

3.

 

Ensure that the pump size (refer to Section 3, Setting Pump Size) has been specified.
