    CAUTION: The Set-Pro is used to control temperature, it is not a safety devise. Never leave the kiln unattended while firing. Check on the kiln at the end of the firing to ensure firing program has completed as planned.

    5. Use the Up or Down arrow keys to make the display read CEr (Ceramic Express Mode) if it does not already. 6. Press the Enter key. The display will read PrHt. The Set-Pro is asking for any Pre-heat time. See page 11 for details.

    17. Once all remaining segments have been programmed the display will read rEdI (Ready). 18. Press the Enter key to begin the firing. The Set-Pro is now running your Custom Mode program. When the firing is complete the display alternates between CPLt and total firing time. Press the Start/Stop key at this point will cause the display to briefly read StOP and then IdLE.

  • Page 6: Ceramic Express Mode Programming (Detailed)

    Ceramic Express Mode features easy programming that automatically develops your firing program based on your desired cone number and firing speed. Simply tell the Set-Pro what cone you want to go to and how fast to get there and you’re ready to fire. It’s quick, it’s easy and gives reliable, repeatable results fire after fire.
  • Page 7 We have included a cone chart, found on page 18, which identifies each cone along with its final firing temperature used by the Set-Pro. This chart is based on a temperature rate (used at the end of the firing) of 108°F per hour.

    10. Press the Enter key. The display will read rA-1 along with some number. The Set-Pro is asking for the desired temperature rate to be used in segment 1. rA stands for Rate and the 1 means you’re programming the rate of temperature change for segment 1.
  • Page 9 14. Press the Enter key. The display will read HLd1 along with some number. The Set-Pro is asking for the amount of time you wish to hold at the set point temperature. HLd stands for Hold (a.k.a. soak or dwell) and the 1 means you’re programming the amount of time you want the temperature to stay at the segment 1 temperature once you reach it.

    Adding Time to a Hold During a hold period it’s sometimes necessary to add just a little more time to the programmed hold time. The Set-Pro allows you to add time to a hold in 5 minute increments. It’s a handy little feature that you should really get to know.

    1. Throw the power switch on the kiln control panel to the On position. 2. The Set-Pro begins its initialization process and the display will illuminate. 3. The Set-Pro will finish its initialization process and then display IdLE (Idle). Idle simply means the Set-Pro is at rest and is not running any programs.

    1828°F. A cone 6 will fire up to 2232°F. That’s a difference of more than 400°F!!!! If you want to fire using a cone 06 and you select cone 6 instead you will have a severe overfire. It won’t be pretty and expect some kiln damage along with it. We will note at this point that Evenheat does not warrant or cover overfire damage, regardless of cause.

    Selecting and Running a Custom Mode Program At some point you are likely to have set all 4 Custom Mode programs set to something you like and want to run again and again. The Set-Pro allows you to quickly select the program you desire.

    Fahrenheit or Celsius Your Set-Pro was set at the factory for use in the Fahrenheit or Celsius temperatures scales. If programmed to the Fahrenheit scale you will see °F when programming your set point temperatures. If set to Celsius you will see °C when programming your set point temperature. You will also note that a small, red dot will be illuminated at the bottom right of the Set-Pro display area to indicate a Celsius temperature.

    Set-Pro Error Messages The Set-Pro monitors each firing and compares performance to a set of standards. If the firing does not meet performance standards the Set-Pro automatically stops the firing and displays a corresponding Error Code describing the fault. These codes are identified and described below.

    The thermocouple (temperature sensor) circuit is faulty. The thermocouple circuit is broken at some point, usually the thermocouple itself. The thermocouple circuit consists of the thermocouple, any connecting blocks and the thermocouple lead wire connecting to the Set-Pro. Circuit Protection Opens (“Blown” Breaker or Fuse) Circuit protection can open for various reasons.
