Clock settings are not lost when a power failure
occurs or when the Embedding Module power
switch
(on the front panel)
is set to OFF. The
instrument memory is backed-up by a battery. At
installation and periodically as required, it may be
necessary to set the clock.
To select a 12-hour or 24-hour time format, use the
arrow keys to move the cursor to item “5. TIME
FORMAT” and press ENTER. Then, use the arrow
keys to select the desired format and press ENTER.
When ready to set the actual day and time, use the
arrow keys to move the cursor to item “4. CLOCK”
and press ENTER. Use the Arrow keys to highlight
the actual day of the week and press ENTER. A
prompt will then appear to input the current time.
Use the Arrow keys to move the cursor between
“Hour” and “Minutes”. Use the + and - keys to set
the actual values. When finished, press ENTER to
save the values into memory. If you do not want to
save the changes, press the EXIT key instead.
SET CRYO MODULE MODE OF
OPERATION
The Cryo Module can be operated independently of
the Embedding Module when the MAN/AUTO keys
is set to MANUAL (MAN LED is illuminated). The
CRYO key can then be used to turn the Cryo Module
ON or OFF.
NOTE:
The Cryo Module power switch must be
turned ON first. The Embedding Module power
switch must then be ON to operate the Cryo module.
When AUTOMATIC operation is selected (AUTO
LED is illuminated) control of the Cryo Module ON
and OFF times can be synchronized with the ON and
OFF times of the Embedding Module or can be inde-
pendent. To synchronize the operation of the Cryo
Module with the Embedding Module, enter the
SETUP mode by pressing, the SET key and high-
light “2. CRYO MODULE”. Press ENTER and
select item “1. TIMER ON” using the Arrow keys
and pressing ENTER. If independent operation of
the Cryo Module is preferred, select “2. TIMER
OFF”. If the Timer OFF option is selected, the
CRYO key must be pressed to turn the Cryo Module
on.
INPUT CRYO OFFSET VALUE
Since the Embedding Module computer controls the
operation of the Cryo Module, an offset value must
be entered to ensure temperature accuracy.
Write down the offset value found on the Cryo
Offset Label located at the back of the Cryo Module.
The range is -4.9 to +4.9.
Enter the SETUP mode by pressing the SET key and
highlight “7. CRYO OFFSET”. Press ENTER and
use the + and - keys to set the actual value. When
finished, press ENTER to save the value into memo-
ry. If you do not want to save the changes, press the
EXIT key instead.
