To Start A Stored Cycle - PerkinElmer PTP-1 User Manual

To start a stored cycle

1. Use the arrow buttons
C-02 for cycle two.
2. Press FUNC to start the cycle.
The system is now in RUN status.
3. Press FUNC repeatedly to step through the sequence of information: setpoint, cycle
time, current step.
To determine the performance of the setup, compare the setpoint (displayed in red)
with the actual temperature (displayed in green). The cycle time gives the total running
time and the current step is displayed as S-01, for example.
4. The cycle can be modified whilst it is running. Use the arrow buttons to change the
setpoint, cycle time or current step value as it is shown in the Lower display.
5. To end the cycle prematurely, hold FUNC for two seconds until the system 'beeps'.
When the cycle has ended without intervention, the Lower display shows END and the
Upper display shows the current temperature.
NOTE: It is important to always use limit alarms to avoid damage to the samples and/or the
cells. Undesired overheating or overcooling may occur if the alarms are not used.
Refer to parameters P-01 and P-02 in
and to set the Lower display to C-01 for cycle one or
