Secondary Menu; Heater Power; Set-Point Voltage - Fluke 9150 User Manual

8.5 Secondary Menu

Functions which are used less often are accessed within the secondary menu.
The secondary menu is accessed by pressing "SET" and "EXIT" simultaneously
and then releasing. The first function in the secondary menu is the heater power
display. (See Figure 4.)

8.6 Heater Power

The temperature controller controls the temperature of the furnace by pulsing the
heater on and off. The total power being applied to the heater is determined by
the duty cycle or the ratio of heater on time to the pulse cycle time. By knowing
the amount of heating the user can tell if the calibrator is heating up to the set-
point, cooling down, or controlling at a constant temperature. Monitoring the
percent heater power lets the user know how stable the well temperature is. With
good control stability the percent heating power should not fluctuate more than
±1% within one minute.
The heater power display is accessed in the secondary menu. Press "SET" and
"EXIT" simultaneously and release. The heater power is displayed as a percent-
age of full power.
