For ramp and soak, ANAFAZE offers ANASOFT-32-RS, a software
package that includes the capability for multiple ramp and soak recipes.
ANASOFT-32-RS is a complete package that features convenient profile
entry, graphic displays, warnings and alarms. Some of the features are:
Independent Ramp and Soak: Any loop in the system can be
defined with a fully independent ramp and soak recipe. These
recipes can be started, stopped, or put on hold independently as
required.
16 Segment Recipes: Each profile can have up to 16 segments of
ramp and soak and can be set for unlimited repeats.
Easy Setup: Ramp and Soak recipes are entered through a profile
menu that includes a simple, fill in the blanks table of time verses
setpoint.
Recipe Storage: Once a recipe is entered it can be given a name or
number and stored on disk. The same recipe can then be for any
loop. Up to 100 different recipes can be stored on disk at one time.
Profile Storage: ANASOFT provides for up to 20 profiles or
control tasks to be stored on disk for the system. Each profile is a
completely independent set of all system parameters. These
parameters include setpoints, ramp and soak recipes, alarms
warnings, input types, scaling and all other selected data. The
desired profile can be selected from the initial system menu. When
