View/Edit Profile Segments
This display lets you edit the profile segments (setpoints and events) of the working program. Edits do not
affect profiles in memory unless you save them.
ATTENTION
Program must be in READY, HOLD, or STOP state before segments can be edited.
TIP
•
Edits are allowed to any segment of the program, including the current segment.
•
If edit is to current segment and segment is a ramp:
- If the ramp type is edited, then the time remaining is recalculated and the ramp
rate is adjusted accordingly.
- If the ramp rate is edited, then the time remaining is adjusted accordingly.
- Changes to the ramp starting setpoint will be ignored for the current execution of
the segment, but will be used for subsequent execution if the segment is included
in a loop.
•
If edit is to current segment and segment is a soak:
- Changes to the soak setpoint will result in a step change.
- Changes to the time will cause recalculation of the segment time remaining. If
the result is less than or equal to 0, the program will advance to the next segment
upon returning to RUN state.
•
If the current segment is a ramp and the starting value of the following segment is
changed, then the time remaining in the ramp segment will be adjusted accordingly
but the ramp rate will remain unchanged.
•
Edits to soak setpoints will result in a step change at the next segment unless the
starting value of that segment is changed to the same value as well.
