User Options Menu

The user options menu is a set of features and calibration options

that are programmable and adjustable by the user. It consists of a set
of menu items that can be scrolled through. Each menu item is a
feature whose values can be veiwed and /or changed. To enter the
user options menu:

From the default operating mode, press the TEMP & PRG keys

simultaneously.

If the keys are not pressed exactly at the same time, you may enter the

temperature edit mode, or the presets mode. Exit either of those modes
and try again.

To cycle from one menu item to the next, press PRG.

Fahrenheit / Celsius

The Current, Set Point, and Preset

temperature values can be displayed in
Fahrenheit or Celsius. To change the value to
F or C, use the arrow keys. Press PRG to move
to the next menu item.

Timer Counter

The timer displays as factory default

Minutes:Seconds. This can be changed to
Hours:Minutes. To change to value to HR
(hours:mins) or MIN (mins:secs), use the arrow
keys. Press PRG to move to the next menu
item.

Recorded Pressings

The digital control records the number of

pressing cycles completed. This can be very
helpful when counting the number of full
pressings that have been performed. The value
will scroll from left to right. A “-” sign will
separate the beginning and end of the number.
To reset the count to Zero, press an arrow key.
Press PRG to move to the next menu item.
