SECTION 3 - OPERATION
II. Programming the G-24
You should now be ready to begin operation. This G-24 conveyorized oven is equipped with a highly efficient heat
transfer system consisting of two infrared emitters or heating elements. These elements are located one above
and one below the conveyor belt. Each is controlled independently. This feature offers much more versatility than
many other ovens. It enables the operator to raise only the bottom temperature to give the product a crisp hearth-
baked appearance or to cook a product evenly through a heavy metal pan. Or the operator may choose to raise
only the top element temperature to give a crisp or broiled top to a product.
Since the top and bottom elements are controlled independently, they can be set anywhere in their range. It is
recommended, however, that the top and bottom temperatures be set within 75°F (24°C) of each other. The
elements are very efficient, and a temperature differential greater than 75°F (24°C) will result in the lower
temperature element being heated by the higher temperature one. This, in turn, causes an incorrect reading of
temperatures and will result in an inconsistent product.
A. Setting the Temperature
Control Panel A
1. Turn oven ON
2. While pressing the upper element "SET"
button turn the corresponding adjustment knob
until the desired set temperature is shown on
the display. The knob is a 3/4 turn knob. The
numbers are an approximate temperature
setting.
3. Repeat Step 2 to set the lower element
temperature using the lower element "SET"
button and corresponding knob.
B. Setting the Cooktime (Conveyor Belt Speed)
NOTE: For Both A & B Style Control Panel
1. Turn Cooktime knob clockwise to increase conveyor belt speed or counterclockwise to decrease conveyor
belt speed. Cooktime will be shown on LCD display in minutes and tenths of minutes. For example a display
reading of 7.5 would be 7 minutes 30 seconds. Each 0.1 equals 6 seconds.
The Cooktime knob is a multi-turn knob so very fine time adjustment is possible.
C. Cooking in a CTX Oven
Before you begin to cook with your new oven you must understand the differences between cooking in it and
cooking in more conventional ovens. You will produce better results if you understand the technology and
follow the "rules".

1. Infrared Cooking Technology

The technology of infrared cooking used in the CTX series ovens was first introduced by CTX in 1969. Each
deck is fitted with patented infrared emitting heat panels (heating elements). These elements form the top
and bottom surfaces of each oven chamber. The G -24 has two heating elements. One above and one below
the conveyor belt.

Control Panel B
1. Turn oven ON
2. While pressing the upper element "SET"
button turn the corresponding adjustment knob
until the desired set temperature is shown on
display. The knob is a multi-turn knob.
3. Repeat Step 2 to set the lower element
temperature using the lower element "SET"
button and corresponding knob.
