time (in minutes) that remain for this event step (heating event) while it is active.
Heating event iterations -
The "Setpoint" item sets the number (iterations) of heating events to
execute. The "Process" column shows a countdown of the number of iterations (events) that remain for
the current test undergoing. When this value is one it means the current event is the last event of the
test undergoing, then the "Heating" toggle switch will automatically become disabled immediately after
this last heating event is finished.
Heating event interval delay -
The "Setpoint" item sets the delay time (in minutes) to wait after each
heating event before starting the next heating event. Note that no delay is applied after the last heating
event of the test, since the "Heating" toggle switch automatically becomes disabled immediately after
the last heating event is finished. The "Process" column shows the amount of time (in minutes) that
remains for this event step (interval delay) while it is active.
Heating event temp step (+/-) -
The "Setpoint" item sets the interval step (in degrees-C) to increase or
decrease the temperature setpoint which generates the heating event. The new value will be relative to
the value from the previous interval (or the original setpoint if this is the first interval). Positive
numbers increase the temperature, negative values decrease the temperature. The "Process" column
shows the current resulting value for temperature setpoint after applying resultant ('step size' *
'current step'). Note that resultant ('Heating event temp. step (+/-)' * 'Heating event iterations') must
be greater than zero yet less than the maximum speed of 3000 rpm, otherwise results will be
unpredictable!
Heating Test Hi-Temp Alarm –
The “Setpoint” item sets the temp level above which the Heating Test will
fault out. The indicator next to this item will be green when the temperature is less than the setpoint
and red when it is greater than the setpoint.
