Description
During heating, will record the maximum current and voltage, and
will calculate the resistance.
Test for any blown fuses.
Test sensor operation. For example, if a thermocouple is lost or
reversed.
Before conducting the cross talk test, Altanium will wait for the
temperature to be below the threshold for the cross talk test.
During heating, will record the maximum current and voltage, and
will calculate the resistance.
Test for the effectiveness of cross talk.
