*When the temperature is set to "no", the heat time is
defaulted to "0.00" while executing the run.
Note: The programs are for convenience only.
Prior to use, users are advised to conduct a risk
assessment to confirm that the program
parameters meet the user's application specific
needs and conditions. Users accept the risks
associated with using these programs.
Saving a program is achieved by pressing and holding down
the corresponding Program button for 3 seconds. The
parameters displayed in the screen are stored into the
program and can be loaded for use at a later time.
3. Pre-Heat - Use to pre-heat the chamber to 45°C prior to
beginning a run or between runs. Once a run is initiated,
the pre-heat automatically stops.
Note that the pre-heat function is only enabled if the
temperature set point is different than "no".
4. Temperature display - Indicates the set temperature or
the actual temperature during a run in °C. The
temperature set point can be set from 35°C to 65°C at a
5°C interval. In addition, it is possible to set the
temperature to "no", which means that heating will not be
applied during the run. The temperature setting of "no"
can be reached under 35°C or over 65°C.
5. Time display - Indicates the heat timer or the run timer
set points. During a run, it indicates the elapsed or
remaining run time or the remaining heat time. The range
for these timers is from 0.01 [1 min.] to 9.59 [9 hours, 59
minutes] at a 1-minute interval. In addition, it is possible
to set the heat time to "CCC", which represents a
continuous heating throughout the execution of a run.
The setting of "CCC" can be reached under 0.01 [1 min.]
or over 9.59 [9 hours, 59 minutes].
6. Select - Press this button to select the parameters to be

corresponding indicator that is illuminated.
7. Minus ("-") - Decrements the value of the selected
parameter.
8. Plus ("+") - Increments the value of the selected
parameter.
9. View - During a run, pressing view shows the set run
parameters. When no run is ongoing, pressing view
displays the actual live parameters. The time display
shows either "0.00" or the end status of the last executed
run (e.g. "End", "Err.").
10. Manual run - Starts a "Manual" run based on the
parameters loaded in the screen, use manual run
function if you do not want to set a fixed run time.
11. Auto run - Starts an "Automated" run based on the
parameters loaded in the screen, use auto run function if
you want to set a fixed run time.
12. Stop - Terminates a "Manual" or "Auto" run.
Note: Restoring the factory default parameters for a given
program is achieved by selecting it and then pressing and
holding down the Stop button for 3 seconds. The default
parameters associated with the program (factory default) will
be restored and the screen updated accordingly.
