MAX (Maximum Programmable Temperature)
The Maximum Programmable Temperature setting is a great feature to use when other people may be programming
the kiln. It helps protect against an overfire by not allowing the programmer to input any value over the designated
limit. To set your firing limit access the “MAX” setting through the “CNFG” menu, enter your desired limit and press
“ENTER”.
Note: We do not recommend exceeding 1800 °F when the kiln has an element in the lid.
2KEY (2 Keys to Start Kiln)
The “2KEY” feature allows you to set the controller so it takes 2 key presses to start the kiln. This helps protect
against accidentally starting the kiln. When activated, it will be necessary to press “START” then “ENTER” to start
the program. To activate this feature access the “2KEY” setting through the “CNFG” menu, use the “1” key to
toggle the setting to “ON” and press “ENTER”. Now when you press “START” to begin the program you will see
“- - - -” on the display. At this point press “ENTER” to begin the program.
dTCT ( Detect Current Sensor Rating)
This feature indicates the maximum amperage rating for the current sensor installed in your kiln. The current
sensor is the hardware installed in your kiln which allows the controller to read the current from the outputs. This
feature should not be modified without consulting a Skutt technician. Changing this setting will alter how the board
interprets the current signal and will cause the board to produce erroneous current readings.
RSET (Reset To Factory Settings)
Sometimes it is difficult to diagnose a kiln problem when factory settings have been modified. To reset the factory
settings access the “RSET” setting through the “CNFG” menu and press “ENTER”. The following settings will be
restored.
1. Error codes on
2. TC offset set to zero
3. MGF times and temperatures set to default.
4. Firing program is set to ramp hold user 1.
