2. You will see either
IdLE
or
StOP
alternating with
a display of the current kiln temperature.
12. STANDARD (SIMPLE) PROGRAMS
The following tables show you exactly how the control
is set up so you can understand what is going on
“under the hood”.
1. You can not change the way the ramps, holds and
temperature set points are set - if you need or want to
do that then you need to use Custom Programming.
2. The “Default Bisque Program” is a Slow Bisque and the
“Default Glaze Program” is a Medium Glaze.
3. “Slow”, “Medium” and “Fast” refer to the ramp speeds
and lengths of the programs.
4. When you change the speed of the Cooldown this goes
from
OFF
(no controlled cooling or no heat at all when
cooling), to
FASt
(Fast = 500°F/hour)
MEd
(Medium
= 250°F/hour) to
SLO
(Slow = 125°F/hour).
5. We recommend experimenting with slower cooldowns
for interesting effects on glazing. It is usually irrelevant
for bisquing.
12.1 STANDARD BISQUE PROGRAMS
Slow, Medium and Fast Settings for the Bisque programs
are listed.
Note: Final temperatures are based on Orton cone charts
(Small Self-Supporting Cones). For instance, Cone 04
is 1945ºF and Cone 06 is 1828ºF. The second-to-last
temperature is the cone temperature minus 256ºF. If you
want to see the Orton Cone Chart go to hotkilns.com/
orton-cone-chart.
Note: Seg 1 is the candling segment. This segment is
skipped if the
CndL
option is set to “
00.00
”).
You can download an Excel spreadsheet that will generate
any program (with graph and times) based on a particular
cone number at hotkilns.com/one-touch-calculator.
Times are calculated assuming a room temperature of 70ºF

12.2 STANDARD GLAZE PROGRAMS
Slow, Medium and Fast Settings for the Glaze programs
are listed.
Note: Final temperatures are based on Orton cone charts
(Small Self-Supporting Cones). For instance, Cone 04
is 1945ºF and Cone 06 is 1828ºF. The second-to-last
temperature is the cone temperature minus 256ºF. If you
want to see the Orton Cone Chart go to hotkilns.com/orton-
