This chart shows the segments in the four cone fire speeds.  Notice that the firing profiles all end with segment 7 but they do 
not start at segment 1.  If you program a vary-fire to mimic these profiles you would start numbering with segment 1.  The 
profiles for other cone numbers are the same; only the end temperatures vary.  The last segment always starts 250

°

F below the 

cone temperature.  The actual temperature reached during the firing will vary based on the rate of temperature rise during the 
last segment.  This ensures the correct amount of heat-work is done with each cone fire program. 

APPENDIX B  -   ERROR CODES

Error 

Code 

Description Quick 

View 

Err0 

Software Error.  Recheck the selected program, and reprogram if 
necessary. 

If error persists, return controller for service.

 

Err1 

The temperature is increasing less than 12 degrees per hour during a 
ramp segment (in either cone fire or vary-fire mode), where the 
temperature is programmed to increase.  This slow rate must persist 
for 22.5 minutes before the error is displayed and the firing stopped.  
Pressing the "1" key clears the Err1  and briefly displays the 
temperature and then the firing time at which the error occurred. 

Ramp segment 
Temp. increase < 12

°

F/hr 

Persists > 22.5 min. 

 

Err2 

During a hold segment the temperature rises to greater than 50 
degrees above the hold temperature which was set.  The temperature 
must stay 50 

°

 above this set temperature for 18 seconds before the 

error is displayed. 

Hold segment 
> 50

°

F above set temp. 

Persists > 18 sec. 

 

Err3 

During a hold segment the temperature is more than 50 degrees 
below the hold temperature which was set. The temperature must stay 
50 

°

 below this set temperature for 18 seconds before the error is 

displayed. 

Hold segment 
> 50

°

F below set temp. 

Persists > 18 sec. 

 
 

Err4

 

The temperature is more than 50 degrees above the previous hold 
temperature during a ramp segment where the temperature is 
programmed to decrease.  The temperature must stay 50 

°

 above this 

set temperature for 18 seconds before the error is displayed. 

Decreasing Ramp segment 
> 50

°

F above last hold temp. 

Persists > 18 sec.
