Example of a temperature cycle:
Header Temp is set to 23 °C (or the standby temperature of your oven).
Time Temp Option Description
Leg 1
1:00
23
ON
‘ Temp will be kept at 23 °C for 1 hour.
Option is ON to run an optional event.
Leg 2
1:42
125
off
‘ During 1 h and 42 min the temperature will rise
to 125 °C. That represents a ramp speed of
1 °C/min. 125 - 23 = 102 -> 102 minutes
= 1 h and 42 minutes.
Option is off to hold an optional event.
Leg 3
1:00
125
off
‘ The temperature will be kept at 125 °C
for
1
hour.
Option is off to hold an optional event.
Leg 4
1:42
23
ON
‘ During 1 h and 42 min the temperature will drop
from 125 °C to 23 °C. That represents a ramp speed
of 1 °C/min. 125 - 23 = 102 -> 102 minutes
= 1 h and 42 minutes.
Option is ON to run an optional event.
Repeat this cycle three times: When
leg 4
is
completed, the cycle will start over on leg 1. The total
time for all cycles will be 16 hours and 12 minutes.
The number of laps and remaining time can be
followed on the indicators
Current lap
and
Total
[h:m]
. After this time the ramp will stop and the
temperature will remain on the last leg temperature
set value if no standby temperature was set. In this
example the oven will keep 23 °C when the ramp is
complete.
This is how the ramp window should look like
according to the example above.
It is possible set a standby temperature, if the last leg
has a high temperature set point and the operator
would like to end the temperature cycle with a low
temperature. This can be done from the
Setup
screen.
See chapter 2.3.6 Set up screen (Standby
temperature).
