Programming
A firing program
An ST216 firing program comprises of a ramp to an intermediate temperature
t1 followed by another ramp to the soak temperature followed by a soak period.
The ST216 ramps the kiln temperature at the required ramp rate 1 until the kiln
reaches temperature t1. It then ramps the kiln temperature to the soak temper-
ature where it dwells for the required soak period.
Each ramp rate is independently settable in the range 1°/hour to 999°/hour or
FULL (full power) or End (end of program).
The soak / target temperature is settable over the range 0 to 1400°C (2552°F).
The soak period is settable over the range 00.00 (no soak) to 99 hours 59
mins.
A program linking feature is available for complex firings. This feature is disa-
bled by default but can be enabled by reference to the Installation Handbook.
Only heating ramps are depicted on the mimic display but the ST216 is capa-
ble of both positive (heating) ramps and negative (cooling) ramps.
Note: during soaking the ST216 display alternates every 15 seconds
between kiln temperature and soak period remaining.
