Function
Description
Limits
Shutdown
Temperature
Sets the temperature to which each Shutdown group must fall
before the next group is switched off.
• Raising the Shutdown temperature means that zones do
not have to cool down as much before subsequent stages
are switched off, which shortens the overall shutdown
time.
• Lowering the Shutdown temperature has the opposite
effect and lengthens the shutdown time.
• If this set value is equal to or higher than the normal
temperature, then it has no effect on the Shutdown
sequence, and the shutdown interval is then based only on
the Shutdown Timer.
The Shutdown
temperature
setting defaults
to 0, which
represents
an extremely
long shutdown
interval.
The highest
Shutdown
temperature
permitted is
260°C or 500°F.
Shutdown
Timer
Sets a delay period (in minutes) to hold off the
action of successive groups during a Staged Shutdown
• Sets the time that successive zone groups must wait
before each switches off.
• Setting this option to zero makes the Shutdown Timer
ineffective, and a Staged shutdown is then based only on
Shutdown Temperature.
The maximum
period for
Shutdown Timer
is 99 minutes.
Startup
Mode
Chooses between three different Startup modes:
MASTER-FOLLOW
- a default option that ties the faster-
acting nozzles’ set temperature to slower manifolds’ actual
temperature to produce a homogenous rise of all zone
temperatures.
MASTER-ONLY
– heats only the nominated Master zones first
• No power is supplied to the subordinate nozzles until the
Master zones have reached their set temperature.
STAGED
– allows you to nominate up to eight Stage Groups
that will heat up in successive stages.
• When Staged Startup is selected, the shutdown sequence
automatically follows a staged shutdown.
• Shutdown pattern has a separate allocation, and this
pattern does not have to match the Startup sequence.
Temp Scale
Chooses [
Degree C
] or [
Degree F
] as required.
