Temperature Control
Temperature is automatically controlled by programing a temperature ramp into the
software. To create a new temperature profile either select that button or just above
select the graph with the red temperature line. The program temperature screen is
shown below. Enter desired set point values by touching the SET POINT parameter
box and entering the values on the keypad. Time to set point is selected by touching
the TIME parameter box and entering a time in minutes on the touch pad. The final
segment should always be a SOAK segment where the temperature equals the final
test temperature and the time equals SOAK. This guarantees the instrument will
maintain final temperature for the remainder of a test. After a profile has been
entered, press the SAVE button. At this point a graph of the desired temperature
ramp is displayed for confirmation. Press: ACCEPT to save ramp or CANCEL to
exit without saving as shown following.
