TEMPERATURE CONTROL (PIDLOGGER)
The PIDLogger can work in 6 modes:
SET-POINT
The oven reaches a setpoint temperature and stays steady.
COUNT DOWN
It's like the SetPoint mode but with a time limit. After the countdown time is expired the oven stops.Time limit can be set from 1
minute to 999 hours and 59 minutes.
CLOCK
It's useful when you want to start-up the oven on a precise date/time (for example at 6:30 on monday after the weekend the oven
start-up to SetPoint 200°C)
PROG
It's possible to execute one of the 10 thermal programs with 100 steps each. In every step are set: the temperature setpoint, the
maximum gradient to reach it and the duration. These programs are edited on a PC and then downloaded to the digital controller.
COMMUNICATION
It's used to allow communications between PIDLogger and PC. In this mode the PID controller is inactive.
STOP
The oven is in stand-by, the PID controller is inactive and the display shows the temperature inside.
SET-POINT MODE
Hold down
for 2 seconds to enter the parameter setting function.
Press
until the display will show
"SetP."
Press
and insert the following parameter: setpoint ("t ???")
Set parameter value by pressing
to select digit and
to modify the value.
By pressing
the parameter will be memorized, otherwise if you hold down
for 2 seconds you will exit
from the parameter setting function.
Example of setpoint at 195°C:
"t 195"
After confirmation the oven is in SetPoint mode and the PID is working. The display shows the temperature, the heating led
shows when the heater is on and one of the < = > led is on.
NOTE:
to view/modify the SetPoint parameter just repeat the above procedure.
Switch off
The oven can be switched off in two ways:
1) using the main switch ON/OFF. At the next switch on the oven will be again in SetPoint mode and the PID will work
immediately.
2) using the
STOP
mode. Hold down
for 2 seconds, the display will show
"SetP."
Press
until the
display will show
"StoP"
, press
to confirm. The oven is now in stand-by, the PID is inactive and all the leds are off.
COUNT DOWN MODE
Hold down
for 2 seconds to enter the parameter setting function.
Press
until the display will show
"C.doun".
Press
and insert the following parameters: hour ("H ???"), minutes ("M ??"), setpoint ("t ???")
Set parameter value by pressing
to select digit and
to modify the value
By pressing
the parameter will be memorized, otherwise if you hold down
for 2 seconds you will exit
from the parameter setting function.
Example of setpoint at 240°C for 10 hours and 30 minutes:
"H 010"
"M 30"
"t 240"
