“SET”
“SET”, or Set-Up, is where all of the commonly used Options are located. The following Options are available
under the “SET” Heading menu:
dELA (Delay)
Delay start allows the operator to program the kiln to automatically start at a later time. The option provides for a
delay programmed in hours and minutes up to 99 hours and 99 minutes.
To program a DELAY:
While the kiln is in IDLE mode access and select “dELAY” under the “SET” Menu Heading. Input the HOURS AND
MINUTES desired and press ENTER. When the program is started, the display will begin counting down from the
programmed delay time. The delay time is held in memory from one firing to another. To clear the option without
clearing the entire program, enter 00.00 for delay time.
ALRM (Alarm)
The Alarm sounds when the kiln has reached the alarm temperature programmed. The alarm sounds until it is turned
off by pressing ENTER. The alarm does not interrupt the firing nor does pressing Enter to stop the alarm. The alarm
temperature can be reset during a firing without disturbing the firing program. Do not press Stop during the firing to
reprogram the alarm.
To program an ALARM:
Access and select “ALRM” under the “SET” Menu Heading. Input the temperature desired and press ENTER. The
alarm temperature is held in memory from one firing to another. To clear the option without clearing the entire
program, enter 9999 for the temperature.
