Event
E B3
Firing process interrupted after power failure
After re-establishing power supply, the firing process has been interrupted because,
for example, kiln temperature has dropped too much . A digit shown after the comma
will provide further information concerning the cause (e .g . B 3 .4 = temperature
dropped too much) .
If this message is displayed immediately after the controller has been turned on, you
may ignore it . This indicates that the controller was turned off while the firing process
and program were still operational . Simply continue working by entering a program .
