During the 

Run Time

 stage, the 

Time

 counts down the time for the preprogrammed run in 1 second increments. 

To pause program, touch the 

Pause

 button. To continue the program, touch the 

Resume

 button (appears when 

paused). To abort the program, touch the 

Stop

 button. To start a new program, touch the 

Run

 button.

5.2.2  Stopping or Pausing a Run

To stop a program, touch the 

Stop

 button on the 

Run

 screen (Figure 5), the button will dim or turn a muted red 

and the program will end. If the 

Run

 button is touched after the program has stopped, then the entire program 

will start over.
To pause during a grinding program, touch the 

Pause

 button. 

Note

The Pause button will have a dimmed or 

muted yellow appearance for a few seconds after the Run button is touched which indicates it is inactive. 

After 5 seconds it will turn a brighter yellow indicating it is active

. The run will hold the settings at that 

moment (elapsed time, cycle, etc.). At this point, the door to the sample area can be opened. To resume the 

program, close door and touch the 

Resume

 button. This will restart the program at the point at which it was 

paused. Alternatively, pressing 

Stop

 will end the program.

5.3  Changing Settings

To change parameters (run time, rest time, cycles, and rate), touch the plus 

(+)

 or minus 

(–)

 buttons on the 

Control Panel 

screen (Figure 4). Touching the plus increases the parameter, while touching the minus decreases 

the parameter. Tap or hold the plus or minus buttons until the desired number is reached. The changes will 

appear in the area between the arrows (Figure 4). The maximum run time is 99 hours for 1 cycle. If running 2–10 

cycles, the maximum run time per cycle is 10 hours. The minimum rest is 15 seconds per cycle for 2–10 cycles. To 

run a program with the new settings, touch the 

Run

 button.

Note

: If the run parameters are changed to a protocol and not saved then (MOD) will appear to the right of the 

protocol name at the top center of the screen.

5.4  Saved Protocols

The 

Saved Protocols

 screen is shown in Figure 7. Up to 20 protocols can be saved for simple and fast recall, 

increasing productivity, and reducing operator error.
A saved program retains the settings for number of cycles, run time, rest time between cycles, and rate. Be sure 

to adjust the rate to the desired setting after recalling a stored program.

 

Figure 7. 

Saved Protocols Screen

The Default protocol recalls the last programmed run setting that was not saved. The Default protocol can be 

changed without saving the new settings, as described in section 5.4. At the top left on the Saved Protocols 

screen is the back arrow button. Touching the back arrow button returns the user to the previous screen.
