Running A Chocolate Sample (Cont'd)
WARNING
Do not use sharp objects to clean the well. The temperature
probe is a multi-part assembly with a sensitive temperature
thermistor as well as a heating blanket. These are easily
damaged with the wrong tools and the repairs are
expensive.
Close the well door so that the cooler well and temperature probe heater can
bring these assemblies back to the desired temperature. When the door is
closed, the external printout will commence (if this feature is available and
enabled).
During the chocolate testing, communications with the PC are disabled. This
allows the full attention of the software to be directed at the testing and also
prevent the user from changing any preferences that could affect the test. The
Configuration application will reestablish communications after the test is
complete and the sample is removed.
