Temperature (TEMP) Setup Menu
Push the softkey under TEMP SETUP to set the scan rate
and cutout parameters.
Scan Rate
The SCAN RATE parameter sets the rate at which the
Product increases or decreases the temperature to a new
setpoint. The scan rate can be set between 0.1 °C to
80.0 °C/minute.
The maximum scan rate is the natural rate the
Product heats and cools. This is less than the
maximum scan rate parameter value.
Cutout
In the cutout menu, there are two parameters: soft and
hard cutout. The Product has an adjustable cutout device
that turns off power to the heat source if the temperature is
higher than a set value.
Use the soft cutout parameter to cut out at the high
temperature limit of the probes under calibration. Fluke
Calibration recommends you set the cutout 5 °C to 10 °C
below the high temperature limit of the probe under test.
When the cutout opens, the Product shows CUTOUT in
the display, turns off power to the heater, and sets the
Product to cool. The Product stays in the cutout condition
until the temperature drops below the cutout temperature
and the Product is reset by the operator.
Note
To reset the Product after the temperature drops below the
cutout value:
1. Push .
2. Push . If it is necessary to change the setpoint
temperature, use the cursor buttons to change the
value.
3. Push again.
The HARD CUTOUT parameter is set at the factory and is
not user settable. This menu selection only lets you see
the cutout value.
Program (PROG) Menu
Push the softkey under PROG to show the RAMP/SOAK
and RUN PROG menus.
RAMP/SOAK Menu
The RAMP/SOAK feature lets the user program setpoint
temperatures and set the time the Product holds the
temperature at each setpoint. The Product automatically
heats or cools to the programmed setpoint and holds that
temperature for the specified time.
The NO. SETPOINTS parameter is used to set the number
of different temperatures the ramp/soak function will use in
the program. You can set a maximum of eight temperature
setpoints.
