To enter the next segment press key (5). The display (3)
shows flashing the next segment number (in our
example „2“). The display (13) reads the current value
of this segment. The TC507 is now ready for the
values of the 2nd segment.
Enter as described for the 1st segment the values for
the ramp (350°C/h), the final ramp temperature
(820°C) and the dwell time (10 min).
Repeat all these steps until all 4 ramps of the example
are entered.
Segment 3 requires to enter the value „skip“ for
uncontrolled heating (or in this case uncontrolled
cooling). This is done by entering the value of „9999“
(after having pressed key „rmp“). The controller shows
„SKIP“ on display (13) - see sketch on left hand side.
In Segment 4 no dwell is needed. Simply enter „0“ as
dwell time to achieve this.
Entering of the example firing curve is now
completed. to start this firing please continue on page
8 of the manual („Starting a Programme“).
In general, it is not important in what sequence values
are entered. At any time you can go back to the previous
segment using key (4) and check or alter the values.
The last value in a programme must always be „end“
to indicate programme end to the controller. The
picture shows „end“ at segment 5 as our example.
Step to segment 5 using the key (5). Since unused
segments on the TC507 are set to „end“ by default
usually you don´t have to enter anything. In case you
entered any other value earlier you have to enter the
value „end“ by pressing the key sequence (10)
followed by „3“.
As long as a ramp or a dwell of a segment is set to
„end“ you can not step over this segment. This avoids
skipping a value unintentionally when entering
programme values in your TC507.
