12.5.3 Heating setup
The gradient oven heating zone consists of thirty two heating elements,
which are displayed in one record in the program. Each heating element
has its own temperature set point. The duration is set for all thirty two
heating elements at once. The individual heating settings allow applying a
temperature gradient over the length of the panel, whereas multiple records
allow applying a temperature gradient in time.
Use the column Set All to add an identical value to all heaters at once.
Add gradient:
Command to configure a temperature gradient from and to a specie
temperature, the control will automatically calculate all values between the
lowest and highest temperature setting.
Add row after current selection:
By default a row is inserted before the selected row, check this option to
insert a row after the current selection.
Start at heater:
Specify the heater from which the gradient shall begin.
Begin temperature:
Specify the start temperature at the heater specified at Start at heater.
End at heater:
Specify the heater at which the gradient shall end.
End temperature:
Specify the stop temperature at the heater specified at End at heater.
Duration:

Mapping tab shows the imported temperature profile for each probe on
the left and the gradient oven heaters to which these probes will link on the
right.
The link between probes and heaters can be changed by drag and drop a
heater onto the desired probe.
Use the white/red close window command to remove a heater from the
