ERROR A
Invalid program variable
Reprogram all segments of the program being fired. If
error persists, controller may need to be returned to
factory for service.
ERROR bd
Board temperature too high
The control box temperature may be too hot or the limit
temperature may need to be reset. If the room
temperature is very hot, aiming a fan at the control box
may decrease the temperature.
ERROR E
Hardware error
Controller will need to be returned to the factory for
service.
ERROR R
Microprocessor memory does
not match program storage
memory (EEprom)
Reprogram and try to fire again. If error persists,
controller may need to be returned to factory for service.
ERRP
ERRP will display. To clear the
display, press “Clear”. The firing
in progress will continue.
Power outage; kiln is still firing.
Thermocouple
FAIL
Thermocouple FAIL indicates one
or more t/c’s have failed. If more
than one thermocouple is
connected, the controller will
indicate which thermocouple has
failed.
Check the board temperature under Diagnostics under
Menu. If the board temperature is approximately room
temperature, then the t/c is defective. If the board
temperature shows a high temperature the circuit board
is defective.
PF
Power failure. Firing has
stopped.
Power was lost during a firing and the kiln temperature
was below 140
o
F or the kiln temperature dropped more
than 250 degrees during the power outage.
Full Power Test
The full power test is used to check the relays and elements of the kiln. To set the controller for
a full power test, simply load the User12 program and turn the alarm to 9999. With the kiln empty and
the lid open, start the firing. Visually inspect the elements after the kiln has fired for 20 – 25 minutes.
Observe each element from where it comes into the kiln all the way around to see that it is equally
bright throughout. The following observations are possible:
One section of the kiln is dark and not coming on. – This could indicates a defective relay since there is
usually one relay per section.
One element is not glowing at all. – This indicates a broken or bad element.
There are darker (Cool) spots along the elements. – This indicates worn elements.
The top and bottom elements appear brighter. – This is normal for many kilns that have hotter
elements in the top and bottom.
After you’ve made your observations, turn off the kiln. Contact your kiln manufacturer for kiln
replacement parts (relays and elements). If there is an issue with your controller, please contact us.
